Roon….The Gordon Knot of concierge musical services?
@charles1dad  I really don't have the need or desire to do so. Some day I may try internet radio but that's about it. Having the world of music at my fingertips doesn't excite me since most of it doesn't really move me.  I still like radio and s...

Your audiophile chair
That Cassina K-10 Dodo reminded me of a Barcalounger I almost got: I already have a nice recliner and thought the arms of this one were just a bit too low for long listening support. All the best, Nonoise  
Shout out to Revival Audio Atalante 3 speakers
I'd give them some more time to break in before getting a newer amp. Mine sounded wonderful from the start but the dealer told me to just wait  a couple more weeks to see how they really sound, and he was right. Once they've fully settled in, the...

Back when freddy and I danced, he admitted he had tried some ethernet stuff and couldn’t hear a difference. That says it all right there. Keep this up and he’ll write out all those ethernet protocols again. All the best, Nonoise

If $10K is your budget, try and audition the Technics SU-R1000 integrated. I have its little brother, the SU-G700M2 and would only consider moving up to that if budget allowed. Integrateds have come so far these days. Another county heard from. ...

@larsman , I thought long and hard before hitting "enter". Half a century ago was around the start of the decline of the middle class. The two roles (being a bread winner and a mother) would have happened regardless of feminism as it now takes two... 
How rare is an audiophile
Half a century of feminism has left many women now by necessity trying to do two roles (and paying taxes as they do) in the same time as their predecessors had to only do one.  Should have stayed barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen listening... 
How rare is an audiophile
Leave it to our resident quacks to read into something that's not there.  For at least 3 decades (if not longer), funding for the arts have been cut or scaled back, long before the commies became a thing as their hobby horse. That, and isn't it o...

Last time I checked, we're on the Endangered Species List. And moving up. All the best, Nonoise
