Sound bar in a box . . . can't understand dialog.
I'm surprise the Samsung HW-MS650 isn't on that list with the link.I've yet to read a bad review on it and am considering getting one myself.All the best,Nonoise

Sum: thanks a lot, Nonoise, as you cost She Who Must Be Obeyed a nicer Christmas. Sacrifices have to be made on the audio altar. She'll understand.All the best,Nonoise 
recommendation for speaker wire to soften the highs if possible
I have about half a dozen speaker cables and every one of them sounds different. It’s just the nature of cables. A designer is going for what he/she thinks sounds best or can sound best for a variety of different systems.Since we all hear differen...

Here’s a list of graphene patents and their applications:https://patents.google.com/patent/US9431346 There are all electrical applications and involve circuits.It’s more than just marketing.All the best,Nonoise

Speaker Cables
Check out the Cabledyne Silver Synergy speaker cables. http://www.cabledyne.com/synergy-speaker-cables.html I’ve had them for awhile now and really like what I hear. The base response you’re looking for is there but it is not bloated or smeared, i... 
JBL 4319...The Big Easy
I'm with you on that one @prof . I've been recommending Kenrick's videos for some time now and even have them listed as a favorite on Youtube.What they do is nothing short of amazing and yes, they have probably the best audio/video demos on the we...

@veroguy, that must have been an older post as I use silver for my speaker cabling and have for quite some time. Right now I'm using Cabledyne Silver Synergy SCs and they work really well. They are 12 GA stranded silver with a copper woven shield ...

Nice video you got there. 👍I might have to play catch up. 🤔The vocals came across nicely, despite your iPhone 7. 😄The vocals have that "in the studio quality".Clean and present, but not in your face.All the best,Nonoise

Right now there's a video up over on Youtube by OCD HiFi Guy with the Kinki, a Jay's Audio CDT and a COS DAC with a pair of Maggie .7s and he loves what he hears. Apparently, the Kinki can make anything sound better. 👍All the best,Nonoise 
JBL 4319...The Big Easy
@mr_m , No, I haven't tried the Purist Audio ICs as I'm quite sold on my Darwin Truth II ICs. They have the best extension, definition, and purity that I've heard. The problem with revealing products like the Kinki and JBL is just that, they are r... 
JBL 4319...The Big Easy
Thanks, but I think trying out different speaker cables would be a lot easier on my back than getting a pair of 135 lbs. speakers up my stairs and then trying to position them in my living room. 😄I'm almost there with the speaker cabling but befor... 
JBL 4319...The Big Easy
I guess you could call this a good comment in that due to their efficiency, and the precise, .25db steps in the Kinki's attenuator, you can get an exact level for any song or piece of music. I find myself tailoring the volume to each and every tra... 
Dear Audiogon,
Try Ghostery and Adblock. Both are free. I'm always reminded when I forget to re-engage Ghostery due to the ads that pop up all over the place. It's very annoying.All the bestNonoise 
SPEAKERS JUMPER CABLES
I tried jumpers in various fashion as @james_edward  stated and as @almarg recommended as well for my JBL 4319 monitors and it ended up sounding best the way JBL recommends: jumping from the lower to the upper posts.I've read where that's the pref...
