Schiit - shipments stopped?
They could offer amazing customer service, a dealer network, etc...but then you wouldn’t pay $900. What is PrimaLuna and Rogue audio charging for their tube preamps? Give Kevin Deal at Upscale Audio a call he will talk your ear off and overnight y... 
SVS vs REL and experiences with both: your comments and preferences...
Try searching this forum for SVS vs REL. specific models have been debated 
When did audio goners now have to pay to see the book value of equipment??
you can see completed listing prices but not completed sale prices at hifishark.com.  Ebay does offer completed sales prices and the actual listing using their search filter. That is the most accurate free tool that I know of. Every once in a whil...

hifishark is nice but you only see asking price. also, audiogon no longer shows the full listing that sold so you don't know if the item was fair condition or excellent.  
In my comparison experiment, go Lore or Lore Reference, or something else, for the same $
You really need to describe what sound your looking for. Things you’ve liked and disliked about specific speakers. The Lore Reference has a goal of neutrality...not hyped sound. The ZU is a party animal. A heresy so to speak.  
Omega Alnico XRS vs. Fritz Carrera vs. Harbeth 30.2 Speaker Shootout
I think it’s fair to say that the cabinet resonances make more of a musical instrument out of the speaker, more natural harmonics if done right, or something.it’s why I like to have resonators in my room.Yes and why something like the Kii Three is...

What are your experiences with upgrading power cords on KEF LS50 wireless?
No comment on cabling but on the last LS50W, several users noted improvements by adding an external DAC. This was despite the signal needing to go back to digital for DSP inside the speaker. My guess is that the additional gain fattened up the sou... 
Relatively small speaker with a "big" performance: Role Audio Starship SE model
The devialet phantom speakers are small enough to be held in your hand yet they can do 20hz bass. So obviously these sampan speakers are not very good considering what the phantoms can do. Transmission lines are very impressive if we are talking c... 
Do active speakers interest you? Also, let's talk directivity
11-09-2020 4:50amHave you ever seen an old school audiophile tapping his (her) feet?I believe they prefer the warm box colored sound because it makes a good sleep..(The warmth etc. should be in the recording, not the speaker.)Yes I have gosta. Tap... 
Do active speakers interest you? Also, let's talk directivity

Are there any bookshelf speakers that sound good on a bookshelf?
Rega RS1 and Vandersteen VLR wood 
KEF LS50 Meta
