Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
Stumbled on this thread, but as the son of a former police officer and prosceuter those impacted should refuse to do anything with these guys but sue them, bring criminal charges against them, and trash their names on every forum you visit. A good... 
The best sounding music streamer/DAC on the market
Unfortunately I didn’t have them both - U1 and S1 - at the same time, but I believe the S1 sounded better than the U1/Directstream DAC. I could be mistaken because ear witness testimony is unreliable with the passage of time.I sold the S1 because ... 
Best amp for KEF LS50
I just purchased a used Pass Labs INT-30A integrated amp and will try it with my LS50s.  My only fear is the Pass Labs is a 30wpc Class A amplifier and my small home office where the LS50s reside could get hot!  Doesn’t help that it is summer and ... 
Wilson Audio SOPHIA II"s or III"s; good or bad passion.;on CJ gear ?
I had a pair orf Sophia 2s and wasn’t impressed.  Great midrange, but that was about it.  Sold them and bought a pair of Focal Sopra ones and added a subwoofer.  Much happier with this combination. 
The best sounding music streamer/DAC on the market
I had a Lumin S1.  Best I ever heard.  Sold it like an idiot to chase another audiophile dream...that didn’t work out.  Now have a Lumin U1 connected to a PS Audio Directstream DAC.  I think I’m happy again. 
What is the most important component in your system.
A cold Beer...preferably an IPA 
Best Network streamer with MQA?
Lumin!  Full MAQ unfold, great interface and awesome sound.  Own the D2 an should have never sold the S1!

PS Audio uber dac
This is a rumor someone started and appears to have no basis in fact 
Lumin U-1
The N10 should really be referred to as a music server/streamer since it has onboard storage where the U1 doesn’t. I just sold my Lumin S1 and purchased an N10 as I didn’t want to be stuck with the DAC in the S1. Nothing wrong with the DAC in the ... 
Do ClassDAudio Amps Have Proper Decay Of Notes?
I own an Esoteric I-03 Integrated ($12,000.00 MSRP) with an Esoteric designed Class D amp section. 180 WPC into 8 ohms, beautiful dynamics, and 68 pounds of audio excitement. I have owned several class D amps (Auralic Merak Mono blocks, Classe Sig... 
New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000
 Conspicuous consumption rules!  The rich deserve everything they desire. 
Tidal does not post the cost to buy a song or an album on their site
Don’t forget veterans pay $11.99 a month for the $19.99 top tier plan.  They will ask for a copy of your DD214 as proof. 
Full-Range to Monitors
I recently went from Wilson Audio Sophia 2s to Focal Sopra 1s and a subwoofer.   Very happy with the change and can’t imagine going back to full size speakers.
