| Anyone take Tepezza? Hi folks - What wasn't said, but possibly implied, with my original comments is that potential medical solutions present you with having to make a choice. And once you get beyond coming up with all the pluses and minuses, you still have a choice... | |
| Added a Schiit Freya+ to a Sansui 8080 @porchlight1 - Did I enjoy the EPI 100s? I was thinking the same thing when I was answering this. I enjoyed them very much. I had paired the EPIs with a Pioneer 3600 receiver and Dual 1229 TT. The EPIs were my first good speakers that were s... | |

| PS Audio DirectStream Thoughts? I purchased the PSA SACD/ CD transport about 2 years ago. My primary reasons were that I had a decent sized collection of SACD/ SACD hybrid discs and an elderly 20 year old SACD player (SONY 555ES) and enough nervousness that it could not be ser... | |
| Zu Audio Union 6 Supreme Hi Karl - I have had the best luck with Gold Lion KT 88 followed by the Gold Lion KT 66. I did not like the TAD or the JJ equivalents, they seemed softer sounding, even after break-in. Gold Lions may be a bit hard to come by because of the whol... | |

| Suggestions for replacement speakers I went with Zu Audio Dirty Weekenders several years ago and recently went with monitors in a secondary system. For the types of music you listen to, you can't go wrong. Very energetic presentation. https://www.zuaudio.com/loudspeakers/p/dw6... | |
