Best Used Speaker Under $4,000 w/ Respectable Lows
It appears that the OP’s last post was the question he asked starting this thread. I’m guessing he’s all set.   
Is toeing speakers a bad idea?
I rotate four different pairs of speakers.  Three of them I set with no toe in, and the other I set with slight toe in. Go figure.    
Mattresses, not stereos is where the money is
I sold bedding and furniture many years ago.  One of the bedding lines we carried was Simmons. The top model we carried was around $1200.  Simmons offered the sales force that model for $250. I purchased a set for my folks,and a set for myself.  I... 
Anyone with Aric Audio experience?
I purchased a pre from Aric a few years back. I also purchased one of his preamps on the used market. The same great service.  He is awesome to work with, and he responds very quickly when any questions pop up.    
Happy Holidays to All

Tube preamp for pass labs ?

@jacobsdad2000 , that is an absolute classic line! How do it know?    
Are you on or off? What say you?
Always on, to a certain extent.   
help me identify this amplifier
Isn’t it possible that it’s been freshened up?   
Tidal or Qobuz
I have found Qobuz,and red cars to be superior.   
Does Qobuz work
I’ve had Qobuz for about 4 years, running through a Node 2, and Node 2i. No major issues.   
power cable
Try it on both to determine which placement is better. Someone’s ears on this side of the keyboard can’t determine that. Have fun with the experiment.  
Ideas for Pre/Power $9000?
 Is buying used out of the question?  Slightly used will definitely get you more miles per dollar.   Just a suggestion.  Enjoy the journey.
