speaker upgrade from Magico A3
@mintakax  I am in Colorado also and you are welcome to come over and listen to my Rockport Avior ii speakers. Rockport speakers are phenomenal! I drive them with a Boulder 866 integrated. My system is listed here. Good luck in your search !   
Upgrade to sound quality of Dynaudio Heritage speakers
The Boulder 866 is a fantastic integrated. 200 w @ 8ohm and doubles to 400 at 4ohm. It would have complete control of your speakers. Good luck!   
A life sentence!!!
Looks like speakers are the majority here. My self included as my Rockport Avior ii speakers will be with me always.   
Qobuz vs Tidal
@jastralfu  thank you. I will try that   
Qobuz vs Tidal
@kennymacc  Sounds like a great way to handle that! I don’t have roon so I wasn’t sure what the best way to go about it is. I have tidal and Qobuz but only use Qobuz now so I was wondering if there is an easier way than writing all the songs in t... 
Qobuz vs Tidal
@kennymacc  What did you use to convert your tidal library over to Qobuz ? Thanks

Any piece of equipment you currently dream of ?
@tomic601  Depending on which of your rooms they will go in I strongly recommend looking at the Avior ii. Incredible speakers and that second woofer gives me amazing bass in my room.   
LOOKING TO IMPROVE THE ACOUSTICS OF MY LISTENING ROOM
@hilde45  Actually I’m not totally sure if it’s better or just different. When you came over to listen the soundstage was well past the speakers in width  ( per a well recorded song ). Instruments were nicely separated throughout. But the music d... 
LOOKING TO IMPROVE THE ACOUSTICS OF MY LISTENING ROOM
I have had people come over and tell me my room is over damped when their system is in the corner of the  family room with windows and is open to other rooms with no control over anything. Or in the basement where their system comes in a distant s... 
LOOKING TO IMPROVE THE ACOUSTICS OF MY LISTENING ROOM
@hilde45  I don’t believe the room was over damped at any time. It is just controlled. Most people are just used to hearing the colored sound that many reflections cause and they think that is the correct way to have the room. The sound was fanta... 
LOOKING TO IMPROVE THE ACOUSTICS OF MY LISTENING ROOM
@kjl1065  This is a very wise step wanting to consult a professional. Most people here want to do it themselves. I hired an acoustician to design my room and I built it while my speakers were being built. I knew I didn’t have the knowledge to try...

A new house with room for a new listening room to support Rockport Lyras and all the flagship Boulder gear to go with it.   
Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers
@deadhead1000  I highly recommend you put Rockport speakers on your list. The Cygnus is below your price limit. Rockport speakers are universally praised and sound spectacular ! Good luck in your search
