HiFi Rose 250
You shouldn’t need to go to a dealer to find out how to do a simple task like this.  
Analyzing DACs
It’s great that you are asking a question about a new hobby but you also need to know some of the people you asking and if you should believe them or not. ASR is a joke. Stereophile is a joke, tell me a review of any product that had a negative o... 
Wilson to Tekton to ????
What other speaker company decades ago used a multiple set of the same speakers to get a better midrange sound that is similar to what tekton is doing? Bose!  IMO, and the original poster states this, they moved to a larger room and instead of buy... 
Help me make sense of this - Midfi system sounding better hifi.
System synergy is the culprit. You have multiple pieces that are bright sounding (krell and B&W) and both together will make things much worse. Your Onkyo is much warmer sounding than the krell and why did B&W buy Classe? Because Classe pr... 
Innovative Autio in NYC just hung up on me
I know of a place that sold high end equipment for decades and the owner would actually tell people to leave because he thought they will not buy from him. The people he told this too were in audio clubs that owned higher end equipment so word got... 
Ultimate stereo nightmare
I’m guessing everything was working before swapping cables. If this is correct, is it possible that you swapped cables while the system was powered up? If so, you could have damaged your amp or your speakers. if you hook up your left cable to you... 
Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"?
Have you ever read a review of a product in an audio magazine that wasn’t very positive (best ever heard)? Every review is like that. How about the TAS review of the $70k server that the reviewer (Harley I think) states it was the best ever he has... 
Wilson to Tekton to ????
Clearthinker - I agree. It’s an insult to the Wilson brand  
Hegel H160 and Focal Electra 1008Be sounding bass-less
It’s not the amp. Most Focal speakers I’ve heard (except for the Utopia range) are bass shy. I’ve owned Hegel amps and they will produce the bass the speakers are capable of unless your speakers need more power than what the amp can produce, which... 
Is the PS audio M1200 D class amp worth buying or should I stick to A/B class mono amps
Instead of asking people how something sounds which isn’t going to help you because everybody has their own preference, ps audio has a 30 day return policy. There is no better way to see how something sounds when you can use it in your system and ... 
The difference between an Audiophile and a Stereophile?
“As long as it measures well.”  I hope this is a joke. IMO, measurements mean nothing in regards on how something will sound. It’s been proven many times in stereophile (since they are the only 1’s that do measurements) that if something measures ... 
Primaluna. Evo 400 - bass issues
I had a tube integrated with the kt-120's in it and the bass was there but uncontrolled. I haven't heard a good tube amp < $10k that did bass well enough to move away from SS. The PSA BHK amp would blow away the PL, the Rogue, and other tube am... 
Stereophile Scamming Subscribers?
Anything over $5 is a ripoff for Stereophile or TAS. These magazines are a voice of the manufacturer and always praises the product under review as the best of the best. BTW: I paid $5 a year for Stereophile so I bought 5 years worth, then I will... 
Hi-end audio is a big zero
Equipment doesn’t matter? Bringing a piece of equipment home to demo in your system doesn’t matter? Just listen to whatever you have? This is crazy talk! What plays music is the equipment you are playing it on.  You can go over to your friends ho... 
Streamer issues
did you do some troubleshooting? does your dad work with the input you are using with abnother front end, like a Mac or pc?  What happens when you set the rate to 48 or 96 instead of 192?
