| YouTube Indicates What the Future is For Audiophiles - Interesting Demographics. @rooze FYI, this topic has been discussed more than once in the past. To quote another forum member whose name escapes me (I'm an old guy, too): "The search feature is your friend". | |
| End of a long quest to vanquish sibilance. @ghdprentice I believe I saw an audiologist in the spring of 2022, soon after I began to notice sibilance. And yes, I systematically swapped out integrated, transport, DAC and all cables in accordance with another forum member's suggestions. ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim I seem to recall you replaced the Hegel with something else. What are you using to power the S. Fabers??? | |
| End of a long quest to vanquish sibilance. @toddalin Your focus on "removing doubt" makes perfect sense, given your occupation. You mention the difficulties of "back and forth comparison" as if the difference between the presence of sibilance and its absence is subtle and fleeting. Give... | |
| Six DAC Comparison @mitch2 I’m looking forward to your report and not only because we appear to have similar tastes in home decor. I expect my next upgrade will be the DAC. | |

| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @melm Thank you for your comments Both my Hegel H390 and Jay's transport are made in China and both can be repaired here in CA. | |

| First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship @lpretiring OK. Thanks. I was just curious. Personally, I'd never buy anything that could not be serviced in this country. | |
| Jazz for aficionados @acman3 Thanks for the wonderful D. Gordon links! When he starts playing, everything else fades away and there's just the music... | |

| End of a long quest to vanquish sibilance. @sls883 No problem. I’ suspect we’ve all done that from time to time! | |
