I Sold my CD Player!!! Streaming sounds so incredible!!!
Umm, the costs may not be what you think they are.. "Listening to an album via a streaming platform for just five hours is equal in terms of carbon to the plastic of a physical CD, the comparative time for a vinyl record is 17 hours." Vinyl rec...

Here's a great article from someone who knows over at Audiophilestyle.com. When taking the dive into streaming and storage, please be aware of the maintenance involved. Good discussion in the comments section as well.  All the best, Nonoise   
I Sold my CD Player!!! Streaming sounds so incredible!!!
There was a time when it was said that CD is a thing and is here to stay. Streaming will eventually be done away with or relegated to the level that CDs and Vinyl are now enjoying and it will again, be done at the behest of some capitalistic moron... 
I Sold my CD Player!!! Streaming sounds so incredible!!!

What’s your opinion about Dali speakers?
Elliot Midwood of Acoustic Image in Studio City, Ca. has been selling Dali speakers since forever. Every time I've been to his place they always sounded fabulous. Yes, he carries other brands but he told me they just sound so much like the real th...

Suggestions on improvement
Being 78 and having age related hearing issues and not knowing what areas of what you’re hearing you need to improve, I’d take most responses here with a grain of salt. You’re going to get lots of responses that are wide of the mark. I have the T... 
Thanks to the Moderators
By the way, I have no idea what was posted but the responses tickle me since they're always the same people with the same responses.  All the best, Nonoise

If there was only some way to set the internet on fire, like books.  
JBL's Marketing Blunder..
Dudes. This is a male dominated hobby so of course you'll get more than a smidgen of typical, lost in the past impressions from clueless men. That ad was pretty good satire and very clever at that. It breaks down tons of barriers to Gen Zers out...
