| Where are the front men? (Rant) @allenf1963 Thank you for the background on Riverside. I knew a little bit of it, but much was new. I have most of their recordings on cd, but not all.. I'll look into the ones that I don't. I have the Lost and Found dvd of their live performance... | |

| Help With Streamer - Aurender, Auralic, HIFI Rose, Eversolo A10, etc. @bassbuyer I also have a Zen Mk3. I use the Sense app with a Samsung tablet (you can get a nice one for around $150). I do use the cd ripper because there are some albums that I like that aren't on Qobuz. I recently learned of the group Blind E... | |
| Where are the front men? (Rant) Most of the music that I’ve been listening to has female vocalists. One exception is the group Riverside. It’s progressive rock, so if you don’t like that genre, you may not appreciate it. Qobuz has the album Riverside 20 - Vol.1, The Shorts. Song... | |
| Long XLR Interconnects I have a larger version of the one linked below. Kinda pricey, but good quality. The shelves are adjustable to any height. You can buy optional end panels, caster wheels, cabinet doors, pull out shelves, etc. If you order through AudioLab like... | |

| Better DAC or better Streamer @knownothing +1. I never cared for a coaxial connection until I got an Acoustic Zen mc2 cable. That made a noticeable improvement. I had used cables by Harmonic Tech, XLO, Morrow, and others. | |
| Needing DAC Advice @mikhailark That's great, but you aren't going to convince me that an excellent dac cannot be built around ESS chips. | |
| Needing DAC Advice @jsalerno277 I went from a $1,650 r2r dac to a $3,000 chip dac. Same brand, so it's not really a fair comparison of r2r versus chip dac. I was worried about losing the favorable qualities of the r2r dac, but that wasn't the case at all. I much... | |
| Needing DAC Advice @wturkey +1 "As with the previous model, the passive mode offers a solid-state flavour with a more transparent and revealing sound albeit with less soundstage and harmonic bloom compared to the tube gain. The tube gain also impacts a more hologra... | |

| Which Schitt Audio Equalizer operates as a loudness switch for low level listening If you always listen at low levels, have you considered turning up your subwoofers? I have a Lokius. I bought it with the idea of equalizing old vinyl, but after upgrading my vinyl playback system, I didn’t feel that I needed it. I barely used it... | |
| Why Do ~You~ Still Play CDs? I just ripped several cds to my Innuos streamer because they aren't available to stream. I've bought a lot of cds this past year. I like owning them and knowing I'll have them if they got pulled from my streaming service. | |
| Needing DAC Advice How does the transport and dac sound through your Primaluna if you still have it? I'm guessing some of your issue stems from your preamp. Are you using decent cables? I've used some that seemed to suck the life out of the music. I haven't he... |
