Sound Quality of red book CDs vs.streaming I have been putting off getting a music server, I really like owning the physical CD. For the last few years I was listening to a hard drive with my CDs ripped to FLAC via computer through my OPPO player and DAC. While the sound and overall conv... | |
Technics vs. Focal Those Technics really look like crap from a 1980's mini system. Focal /JM has been building great speakers for decades. Easy choice in my opinion | |

Audio Refinement Complete integrated amp service I would first remove the cover and see if there are any fuses on the circuit boards... could be PS but could also be a fuse. | |
Could I be a Retail Wretch? You’re not offending me, it’s just shitty to do that to dealers. None of whom want customers like you wasting their time and resources. | |
klipsch speakers,be honest I have owned a number of speakers over the past 35 years or so, always looking for the "perfect" sound. Floor standers, monitors with subs, all very good. PSB Platinum , several KEF both floorstanders and stand mount , Paradigm Studios, Revel 10... | |
Could I be a Retail Wretch? The funny thing is good dealers don’t have to charge MSRP , and many times don’t if you ask. I bet you paid MSRP for your iPhone and any other Apple stuff you own....In my industry the MAP price is often only a few % off the MSRP, sometimes the MS... |
