| Reference 3a Decapo Anniversary Absolutely amazing speakers. Let mine get away for Spatials, but would have no problem ever going back. One of the best deals in the business. | |
| What/who do you listen to that you feel is a bit of an unknown? @tgrisham +1 on Checkfield. Picked up their Through the Lens back in the 90s and it's never let me go. | |

| WiFi USB dongle for Oppo 105D My only success is with a wired connection from my phone or laptop to the oppo's front HDMI port. | |

| Big source improvement using CD player Question: sometimes I stream YouTube music through my Oppo105 using the USB interface. Why does that sound so much more full than streaming Tidal lossless? | |
| speaker recommendation for 35watt tube mono blocks Third on the Ref 3A de Capos. A few on sale here and on other audio sale sites. They are sensitive and project beautifully. | |
