Car Audio Upgrade
I upgraded my Silverado 2004 and my 2014 when I purchased them, but I did not upgrade the 2018.  It's not a bad stock system, but I hope to upgrade it one day.  I usually keep a new truck for 10 years, but I broke with that this last time, as the ... 
Car Audio Upgrade
I do listen in the car and love quiet music to help with the stress of driving.  I used to do all the upgrades myself, but not these days.  You are correct about hard to upgrade.  Trying to get all the functionality back using wiring harnesses is ... 
which car is sitting in your listening room?
1960 Rambler 
Qobuz Users Update?
BluOs seems to work well 
Paradigm Personas anyone heard them
I know this is old.  I am interested in the bookshelf model and wanted to listen to them.  I found them in a local box store.  They had all models connected with anthem, but it was so disappointing listening to great speakers in an open show floor... 
Speaker Break In...? Or listener “Break In”?
prof   I agree.  It's like a car salesman.  If they can get you inside the car and take it for a test drive, or let you take it home and drive it for a couple days, a sale is more probable.I do think there may be a slight break in for speakers, ... 
Speakers better than Revel Salon 2
They are discontinuing the Dynaudio Excite series. I bought the Excite X18 which are on sale for about half price. For the money, these things are the best deal out there. You can’t find a speaker like those for $1000. Thinking about buying anothe... 
Serious turntable popping problem finally solved!!
OMG!  What a horror story.   I couldn't imagine shutting down the power in my house to resolve that.  I too once had a horrible pop in my system.   It was so long ago I don't remember what it was. 
Use this song if you are doing an A/B with Preamps
If you like an acoustic recording; guitar, piano and violin this is a fun song.  Belle of Newcastle/Scruff Neck, on album Flying on Home.  Streamed from Deezer.  
What’s your vote for the most ridiculous, overpriced, and useless tweak?
A cheap tweak.  Installing red light bulbs in your listing room improves the sound.  Ha. 
I need help trying to decide which bookshelf speakers to purchase
brewered The Dirac works pretty good.  Takes a while to set it up.  I had to work with the Dirac folks to get it to work with Windows 10.  There was a minor coding error in the software and it wouldn't work on Windows 10.  I was basically their... 
I need help trying to decide which bookshelf speakers to purchase
atl4love added Nola Boxer 2, to the list.  Thanks! dynguy I am interested in the Dyno Special 40, Contour 20, or the Evoke 20.  The Evoke is a new line and I am curious about those.  The nearest Dynaudio dealer is a couple hundred miles from her... 
I need help trying to decide which bookshelf speakers to purchase
mrdon I had never heard of these Buchart S400's .  I am adding them to my list.  The reviews are good and they air ship them from Denmark free for a 30 day trial.  They must be confident.  I will say I would feel a bit guilty returning speaker... 
I need help trying to decide which bookshelf speakers to purchase
musicloversaudio, we do have Paradigm in town (KC) and I listened to them (Prestige 75F) and they sounded pretty good.  I agree they take up the same space when you consider a stand with a bookshelf on top of it.  I must be old school.  I like th...

Gosta, I don't think I will spend 40K on equipment.  There would be a divorce and I would lose half of everything.
