New speaker day - Tekton Enzo 2.7 review
Well I rolled the dice on a pair of Spatial Audio X3s last year having never heard ANY of Clayton Shaws speakers, It worked out well for me as I love them. But I have played the game and lost a few times too. I've owned 30+ pairs of speakers in th... 
New speaker day - Tekton Enzo 2.7 review
I'd really like to hear Eric's current offerings. I bought a pair of Pendragons a few years ago and while they were good for a 2K pair of speakers, they weren't anything special. From all I've read, the DI and similar are head and shoulders above.... 
Qobuz vs Tidal
For all of you that are Quobuz fans, how are you indexing your albums? In Bluos or Lumin, if you have 500 favorite albums they are all listed in chronological order by date they were added as a favorite. I can't see any way to find a particular al... 
Qobuz vs Tidal
I have both. Quobuz sounds slightly better. You really have to listen, but it's there. That said, two things make Tidal the winner for me.Tidal catalog is far superior for rock and Americana.You cannot index your music with Quobuz. Albums are disp...

Harbeth Super HL5+ vs. Focal Kanta No.2
A good friend of mine went from the Harbeth to to the Kanta, so exactly what you are doing. I have spent time with both in his listening room. The Harbeths were nice and didn't do anything wrong, very pleasant sounding speakers, but not very engag...

How do you share the sweet spot?
I used to give my  guests the sweet spot and sit directly behind them. Yea I was being a good host but lousy company. It is taken more than  a little time and a few bucks but now I have a sweet spot over 6 feet wide so I have two very comfortabl... 
Best improvement for the buck
I would start with your amp/preamp combo and go from there. Move to source improvements afterward.Oz 
Big source improvement using CD player
It's no doubt that a cd player is better than spotify. Try Tidal or Quobuz and the story ends differently.And no you don't need a USB dac into a computer. Get (at a minimum) a Bluesound Node 2i and computer be damned.Oz 
Tidal free trial subscription
It's been three years. I hope he got his money back by now..................
