Musical fidelity M6SI problem.
I really like the Tri-Vista stuff. 
Best Integrated that you've heard under $5k
For transistor, the Musical Fidelity M6si. Of course it depends on the speakers, cables, etc.. A perfect match for my Monitor Audio Silver 500s.

I have now switched my speaker cables to Cardas Clear Cygnus and my interconnects to balanced Cardas Clear Cygnus going to my Oppo 205. Great sound. 
HiFi vs MidFi
I think millercarbon explained it perfectly. 
How long do good speakers last?
I had a pair of Monitor Audio Studio 6s, and then gave them to my son last year because I bought one of the new Monitor Audio floor standing models. The speakers I gave him, are now 27 years old and still perfect (rubber surrounds). 
Bad recordings and high end audio

Another great gone, this time its Charlie Watts
Charlie was a pioneer in the early days of Rock. Way back, and for a few years in a row, he was voted #1 rock drummer by Playboy magazine. I loved his intros on a number of songs. His style fit the music perfectly, and that’s the job of a good dru... 
New cables - To judge now or after burn in period?
What would be the motivation for a company to post false information about cable break in? I can't figure it out. It's not going to make you purchase their cables, so what can it be? Also, it's not all cables that need a long burn in as stated by ... 
New cables - To judge now or after burn in period?
Stupid of stupid or deafest of deaf? I've gone into a couple of high end end retailers with a friend and listened to a system set up by the owners. in both cases they asked " doesn't that sound great "? We turned and looked at each other and said ...

Is today’s contemporary music lacking?
I find a lot  of the new pop music today is boring and  I don't think most younger people learned to use their imaginations the way older generations did, and it affects creativity. It's a different world full of technology doing everything for yo...
