| cassettes CAN sound better than vinyl. @rfnoiseIt was cool to read about your MCS deck. I had several of them in the late 70s and early 80s; forget which models. They got me started in this hobby (really an old table-top tube AM radio did) and I've just gone further and further down th... | |
| What do "audiophiles" use to judge equipment? Ummm, my ears. | |
| To Stream or Not to Stream Just do it. So much already said. Access, excellent sound, ease of use, and did I say access? Access to so much content. I listen to all kinds of stuff that I never did before. And I only play CDs in the car. I've given away and/or sold many alrea... | |
| Schiit Lokius anyone? Maybe, just maybe, a few of the "no tone controls" manufacturers will pick up on this. A few, like Luxman, have been doing this a long time and I'm sure at least some of their sales were because of the inclusion of tone controls. Viva tone controls! | |

| What is the sound level of Your Listening Room? 31 db pretty consistently as I just tested - 5:14P and mostly quiet. Interesting thread. | |

| Is D for Dry? Class D... @atmasphere The voice of reason steps in. | |
| Is D for Dry? Class D... @erik_squires Exactly.Don't just toss a bomb out there OP - labeling a whole class of amps as "dry and lifeless" is not based in any reality. There are good sounding Class D amps, I have one. The TAD M2500. | |
