| Opinions On DACs Around 1,000$ This is one of those topics where you will get a ton of “buy what I bought” responses. Not always super helpful. I would back up and start with your room: create an accurate diagram of your listening space with accurate dimensions, windows, doors... | |

| Splendor D9’s.2 vs B&W 803 D2 which I own My D9s came in the premium limited edition Ebony finish. They look amazing. Quite a narrow speaker but very tall. The footprint on the floor is smaller than many of the wide speakers though. My preference. If you buy them new your Spendors will ta... | |

| Fern and Roby Montrose TT anyone? There are some glowing reviews online.I think the issue is (might be?) that while these products look so cool you have to wonder if the sound quality is there? The industrial steampunk look is fun but the line is there for overdoing it?But then ag... | |
