| Accessing Audiogon securely. NordVPN for me, too. A VPN is one of those things that's difficult to evaluate. You're usually not aware of whether it's worked properly or not. Still, with as much chicanery as there is online it's a reasonable step to take, especially when you... | |
| Looking for an all-in-one just-add-speakers streamer for my son to take to college I'd recommend any of the Edifier powered Bluetooth speakers. I've compared them to the Audioengine speakers and thought the Edifiers sounded much better. https://www.edifier.com/global/product-category/bookshelf-speakers | |
| W4S DAC A strong argument in favor of the W4S products is that the technical support is exceptional. I had what I thought was an issue with my W4S DAC and sent an email on a weekend evening, expecting to get a reply early the next week. Within an hour EJ ... | |
| Bluesound recent update 4.0 tanked sound quality ??? Did the update on my iPad a couple of days ago and hear no difference in the audio quality through Bel Canto DAC and amp and Q Acoustics speakers. The interface is a nice improvement.. | |
| What is your most fond musical memory. ...one more, the $2 Tuesday night performances of Paul Ray and the Cobras at the Rome Inn in Austin in the early 70s. Stevie Ray Vaughn on lead guitar, almost always standing at the back of the stage with his back to the audience. | |
| What is your most fond musical memory. Two, both at Armadillo World Headquarters in Austin - Van Morrison (the R&B Van, not the Celtic mystic Van) Little Feat with unannounced appearance by Linda Ronstadt | |
| Opening Acts For the Rolling Stones +tony1954 I saw that same show in Ft. Worth, TX in 1972, which included the Staple Singers as the middle act, and agree completely about Stevie Wonder (who was being billed as "Stevie Wonder" for the first time rather than "Little Stevie Wonder")... | |
| Is D-Sonics audio still in business Another vote for any of the Bel Canto products, really well made and great sounding. | |
| Are There Any Stereo Bluetooth Speakers? Are you looking for stereo output from a single enclosure or a small pair of separate speakers where you'd be able to hear stereo imaging? Having the right and left stereo channels come from a single enclosure won't give you realistic stereo imagi... | |
| Air conditioning for audiophiles. Second drumnman222's recommendation of the Midea (check the spelling) window units. Mine is much less noisy than a standard window unit but it isn't silent. They're well made and relatively easy to install. | |
| Recommendation for small surrounds to pair with Onkyo NR6050 and a pair of diy tritrix For your application a pair of Dayton Audio speakers from Parts Express would probably do the trick. They're light weight, inexpensive and sound good for the price. https://www.parts-express.com/home-a-v/home-speakers/bookshelf-speakers | |
| Another man down There's a very good documentary on his life and work, "If You Could Read My Mind" available on several streaming services. Highly recommended. https://www.gordonlightfootmovie.com/ | |
| Hand Sanitizer for Ultrasonic Record Cleaning? Before you buy a gallon it would be good to look into what the effect of glycerin might be on your records. That’s the second ingredient. | |
| Inexpensive Streaming Another impressive streamer at that price is the WiiM Mini, both digital and analog output with volume control built in for the analog output. https://wiimhome.com/Overview.html |
