If A.I. took the place of musicians, would you listen to it?
There will probably be many Zuckerberg-like, non-musician nerds getting rich from generating music through AI in the future, and some of it may even be good.  Good for them I guess, but I’ll never respect or wanna meet them, and I’ll damn sure nev... 
Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp
Or maybe someone who has spent a lot of time with streaming tech, has a good system with lots of options, and a good ear. Soix is probably right when he says the majority agree with him, but this is a self selecting group. @jji666  Yup, a se... 
Preamp suggestions for Atma-Sphere Class D Monoblocks
Given what you’re looking for my top choices (in no particular order) would be the MP-3, Spatial Audio Raven, Aric Audio Motherload XL, and Backert Rhumba Extreme and don’t think you could possibly go wrong with any of them and believe several off... 
Any experience with SVS 3000 Micro
Have you played with speaker placement to mitigate room issues? I think the SVS SB1000 Pro is a better (and cheaper) sub than the 3000 Micro and isn’t all that much bigger. The REL doesn’t go all that much lower than your speakers but may still he...

@mdalton The vast majority of people here find meaningful differences in the impact streamers have on sound so you’re in the distinct minority, If you can’t hear differences between streamers then that’s sad but good for you, and I hear ASR callin...

@mdalton Maybe because they don’t like people who like to play mommy.  Hmmm.

@mdalton Nah, just issues with ridiculous statements.  
Best Music Streamer to pair with Rogue Audio monoblocks and Pre-Amp
@mdalton Yeah, and I have a different opinion from him which is perfectly within my right. He came out and made a strong statement that I thought was ridiculous and rebutted it. That happens here — deal with it. BTW, the vast majority of people he... 
Upgrade Digital Cable Review
Agreed.  I had a well-regarded budget digital cable for years thinking it was fine, but upgrading to a $600 cable was like making a big component upgrade — biggest difference any cable has made in my system by a good margin, and I was pissed at my... 
Power Cord for Accuphase Amplifier
I listen to a lot of music and don’t take kindly to being told I don’t know how to do so. @rtorchia Well then don’t make a statement like you did when the OP has already said he heard significant improvements upgrading a couple of his PCs becau...

Streamers don’t have a sound and I agree software would be the focus. Well that’s just completely untrue, poor advice, and the words of someone with little/no experience comparing streamers and/or has a system or ears incapable of revealing the...
