Is Recording quality the real culprit?
Interesting on how so many agree on the original post and go into detail on why they agree yet, when you speak about equalizers in your system it's against all "Audiophile" beliefs.   Ask the question about having an equalizer in your system and y... 
Ebay selling my missing amplifier
Not sure if the information is here in the posts but is it being sold in the US. The KC post is on to the action. A friend of mine had a bunch of watches stolen from his house burglary . Just like you he was on EBay and there were his watches. He ... 
Moved from Logitech Squeezebox to Cambridge CXN V2 w/NAS - sound not as good
Since I still use three Squeezeboxes on various systems why is it not an option to stick with what works?    I run LMS on a NAS no PC involved and Squeezebox streaming to the systems where needed.     This works well and I have been looking at s...

How do I switch from Wi-Fi to Ethernet cables?
Your best bet is to pull your modem out of the basement.  Have your ISP  company move it , thats a horrible spot for Access Point.     If you cannot  do that have someone run Cat6 in the walls to a spot where you can put the Router within the main...

System that sounds so real it is easy to mistaken it is not live
Tough call. Lots of folks say no way.  I am sure plenty arent fans of Klipsch speakers on here.  I would say the new Jubilees, which are huge by the way, can get you very close and I 100% refute the fact you need a lot of power.  Efficient speaker...

Line Array VS Traditional Box Speakers, Why not just get the line array ?
Good stuff guys.  I guess if you  do not like live music then you would search for more sterile recorded audio but in the end all musicians are trying to get that performance to come across as if they were playing to you.  Hence that is what I wou... 
Line Array VS Traditional Box Speakers, Why not just get the line array ?
Steakster   I know someone about to buy those.  Another reason I started this thread

Is this a scam?
I think Barjohn has the best suggestions above for protection. From the original post I am not sure why everyone thinks its a scam.  The guy sent money via pay pal why is that suspicious ?  I have been using Pay Pal for years .  Sending it throug... 
Was my friend given misinformation.
well at least he has an AVR if we wants to add to build a surround sound system.  I am sure the salesperson qualified him 🤣🤣🤣.  Did he go in saying I am looking for a 2 channel system for audio?    AVR , Audio, Video , Receiver.  If he told the gu... 
Gregg Allman .......I cannot believe it has been 5 years.
I do however have to disagree on Derek.  I have seen the Brothers probably around 75 times and many of those with Derek and Warren.  Nothing like those two on stage tearing into ABB tunes and doing them the ultimate justice.  Derek is a student of...
