Is this an right time to buy hifi?
@millercarbon Fed printing, precious metals, crypto: All agreed. @p05129 Not that this is a digital currency forum, but Google large (US by the way) institutional holdings now and you’ll quickly see why your next audiophile component will soon be ... 
Dream Speakers = landed. Now I need to feed them!
