Speakers which always sound good
TektonPolk 
Music Server or Laptop?
So, I’m completely dumb when it comes to this stuff but just realized that I can purchase another small footprint laptop, hook it up to my Chord Qutest, and play my music from a shared folder via my network. Does this make sense? Is there a limit ... 
Audiophile quality streamer/server-in-one without a DAC. Does this exist?
Is there any new info/recommendations on this matter since this post was created?  I'm looking for the same thing but I do not stream.  I just need a simple music server to connect to my dac/system for my pre-existing library which has a nice, use... 
Cambridge Audion Azur 840 C problems
Hey Gary.  Did you ever get this issue fixed and/or figure out what it was that was causing the issue? 
Best Rock Album of 2014
If you dig Avant-Rock, Factor Burzaco - 3 is the best rock-based album of the year BY FAR. Again, it requires an ear for the eclectic as a prerequisite. 
Best sounding integrated between $1500-$3000
Heed Obelisk Si + X2 PSU 
Budget-Friendly Interconnects?
Just an update: I got a good deal on a pair of Cardas Golden Reference IC's and they are in every way superior to what I had previously. In my system, everything I was looking for and more. 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore

Budget-Friendly Interconnects?

High Sensitivity Speakers that work best with SS
My Tekton Lores sound fantastic matched with my Heed Obelisk Si w/ X2 psu. 
Amplifier for Tekton speakers
I'm running my Lores with a HEED Obelisk Si w/ X2 power supply and couldn't be happier. Highly musical, with great bass, dynamics, and PRaT. Best of both worlds imho. 
Tekton pedragon finish
You can always count on the Grammar Police to provide a worthwhile addition to the thread. 
Tekton pedragon finish
I have the Lore in high gloss black and it's really well done but easily gets hairline swirls in the finish when looking at it under light. If I had to do it all over again, I would most definitely go for the wood finish (that Bubinga looks gorgeo... 
how make your speker faster
Faster and more dynamic? Get new speakers. 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Even my crappy car speakers will show how fatiguing modern "brickwalled" pop music is.I've had my Lores for almost two weeks now and they have produced remarkably well with everything I have thrown at them. I listen to an extremely wide array of m...
