| Upgraditis? Speaking of classical music, there’s a really great streaming site I just found. It’s called IDAGIO. Amazingly comprehensive and user friendly for a classical music lover. I can’t recommend it highly enough! | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados I just discovered today a streaming service that’s dedicated solely to classical music: “IDAGIO.” It’s not Primephonic. It’s much better organized for a classical music lover. Costs $9.99/mo. FLAC sound quality available.So far, despite a few b... | |

| Upgraditis? twoleftears,will do, soon. | |
| Preamp break-in Recapping wasn’t cheap (about $1500,) but it’s probably the best investment I could have made. Already hearing amazing improvement. Like I just bought a super expensive piece of equipment. | |
| Preamp break-in Thank you for the responses. I’m happy with the improvement with the caps already. I can only imagine how much better it will be after break-in! | |
