| New Speakers ... Can't Stop "Listening" @initforthemusic ... I had the B&Ws for several years, but really didn't pay attention to their uninvolving nature until I heard the JAs. After that, it was a no brainer. | |
| Digital Files and Wi-Fi @audioengr ... would I have to use a computer monitor to access a library management tool if I went the Bluesound route, or could I use a tablet? Thanks. | |
| Best standalone music server? I'm interested in digital files as well. I'm ripping to pa PC via dbpoweramp. However, I don't have an ethernet connection where my listening room is located. So, for wi-fi, is there anything good to recommend? | |
| Sound Anchor Stands I just received the SA stands. A "hardware pack" for each speaker comes with two allen wrenches and two small black bolts which, I presume, bolt into the two screw holes on the front bottom of the speakers. Another "hardware pack" comes with the j... | |
| New Sony HAP-Z1ES Firmware Out Today Just curious ... I’m thinking of migrating to digital music files, so why is it not preferable to have a computer in a stereo system? I have been thinking of using a laptop into an external DAC into my preamp because I am not network savvy and wis... | |
| Oppo exploring additional production of UDP 205 Good news, indeed. | |

| HELP! Importing Files to Music Server - Totally Confused @hgeifman ... thanks for the informative explanation. I'm really not interested in streaming, and running ethernet to the second floor of the house may be problematic. I'm getting into this "ripping" thing because I'm concerned that new, high qual... | |
| Advice Needed On Recapping Power Amp As always, Erik, sage advice. Thank you. | |
| Is it worth it? "But a $5k speaker and a $15k amplifier, I would probably go the other way around, and seek out a $15k speaker and a $5k amplifier. I think you will get a far bigger bump in performance that way."+1! I can tell you from recent, personal experienc... | |
| Whatever I Did, It Worked. Great explanation. Thanks, Erik. | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars @prof ... right on! Copeland is an amazing drummer, and you can really hear every hi-hat stroke through the Pulsars. Also, check out "Walking on the Moon" ... I have listened to that song a gazillion times through my B&Ws and had never befor... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars @prof ... I agree wih you completely. Last night, I listened to the Regatta de Blanc CD by the Police. I noticed just how lifelike the cymbals and hi-hats sounded. As a drummer myself, I know exactly how they should sound, and the Pulsars did a gr... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars If I were going for floorstanders, I’d get the Perspectives, too. Also, just a note that Jeff Joseph is one of THE nicest amd most helpful guys in all of hi-end audio. He's a real gentleman all around. |
