Best Home HIFi you’ve listened to
Mine. Although I have never heard anyone else’s system. Sure would like to tho.   
Just got started on Qobuz. Can anyone recommend an album or song?

@unreceivedogma  The Rockwool is it’s own brand I got at lowes. I used the safe and sound version. The 2 inch rigid fiberglass panels are from ATS acoustics. The fabric covering all walls and ceiling is from Rosebrand

@creditingkarma  The Atria is a great speaker. That’s what they had at Axpona. Sounded amazing. I’m going to stick with the DAC in the Boulder at least for now as it reviewed very well and I spoke to the owner of Boulder ( I’ve embarrassingly for...
