Sonos has released a compact subwoofer Sub Mini
I bought one of the Sonos small subs to go with a Sinos Beam in our main bedroom system. I am very impressed for both video and streaming music at 'normal' listening levels. If you want true lifelike volumes, this ain't your setup. Within those li... 
What is your top sexy song?
There’s no shortage of sexy songs, and Lucinda has certainly contributed her fair share. But ’Steamy Windows’ by Tina Turner definitely belongs on the list. So does Aaron Neville’s 1991 ’It Feels Like Rain’ "Down here the river meets the sea In t... 
any ideas?
If it s.not the speaker, that leaves the box and the electronics. My first instinct is to look for a compelling ent that has come slightly loose from its mounting. Either pull the amp ate or remove the woofer to get access and see what you can fin... 
Budget integrated amp?
Aloha, I live on the Big Island and am much more familiar with the realities of owning electronics in this environment than most. The combination of heat, humidity, volcanic emissions and salt are not like anything anywhere on the mainland. Thing ... 
What exactly is PRaT???
PRaT is experiential, and as such takes some experience to hear - or not hear. It's pretty clear it does not exist in any one domain, like frequency, or phase, per se. The Large Advent is great example - beautifully voiced, extended well controlle... 
Music server recommendations needed.
I'm curious about something called the Brennan B3. From their website: "Martin Brennan is a Cambridge University physicist. He  has designed more than twenty silicon chips and written over a million lines of code. Martin designed and built his f... 
Preamp upgrade
You're already in some pretty thin air, and it looks like your streamer is the next thing I'd consider upgrading. Judging from the sales on the Node I'm seeing all over, there's a new model in the Wings. So you might want to wait and see, or jump....

Bookshelf or stand mount help please
KEF LSX IIs or SVS Prime Wireless Pro. I am not a Klipsch fan. The are too forward and harsh to the point they hurt my ears. The REL is a great sub if you already own it, but if I were buying I would consider the SVS Micro 3000 or the KEF KC-92 to... 
15 amp circuit VS. 20 amp Circuit
@joshziggie2021 AI also says if a shirt takes 3 hours to dry in the sun and pants take 4 hours, then 2 shirts and 2 pair of pants will take 14 hours to dry  If you have a 200 Amp service in your house, each leg has a capacity of 100 Amps. as long... 
15 amp circuit VS. 20 amp Circuit
First, a dedicated circuit is always preferable.  Second, no, your loads are absolutely not connected in series. Loads are connected across the hot and neutral, in parallel. Third, yeah, probably 3 dedicated circuits, all pulled from the same le... 
Recommend a desktop nearfield speaker for me
Two points: 1 - The technology of the LS-50 simply did not exist when the LS3/5A was developed - using KEF drivers, if you recall. Time moves forward. 2 - Any power amplifier will drive any speaker. The question is how loud. In the case of the LS... 
Anyone remember the days before bells and whistles!
@ghdprentice The Marantz 10b Tuner had an oscilloscope on the front panel in 1965. It remains the best way to tune ever devised. My Apt-1 preamp has a world class phono stage with a proper subsonic filter, actual usable tone controls, flexible mon... 
Truly Stunning Vinyl Album
Charlie Haden and Pat Metheny - Beyond the Missouri Sky. Texture, timbre, and definition of both bass and acoustic guitar have never been better captured and in service of such tremendous music. It will transport you. Jackson Browne - Running On ... 
Next step up on the streaming food chain?
@kairosman @jasonbourne52 Dimensionality and roundness are indeed figments of the listeners imagination, as are all things stereo. But that is neithervthe question or the issue. The question is whether or not they are repeatable and reliable. If t...
