Advice on best mid priced MM cartridge choice for Rega P3 (2016)
Check out the Hana line of carts. I’ve been using the eh, yes it’s moving coil, but can be used with a mm phono stage (47khom). It gets hardly anything but 5 star reviews, which tells me it must be pretty versatile.  
Bluesound installed DAC - music killer?
I’m fairly new to streaming as well. So I have the blue sound node 2i. At first it was hooked up to a new preamp via unbalanced rca’s and streaming over WiFi. It sounded good, not great, and not magical like I expected. So next I invested in conne... 
seeking ‘HORN’ ideas apart from Klipshc Lascalla
Hi. I have a pair of Bob Crites’s “cornscala” type C speakers (Now just called “crites speakers”. It’s a three way horn loaded behemoth of a speaker that Bob built himself. They come  in at under $2K and in the same size cabinet as the Cornwall sp... 
Bluesound node 2i DAC VS Vincent SA-T7 DAC
Hey thanks! I wish I could take credit for it. I only got the idea from an article though (I think it was on TAS website),  although there are many articles and a YouTube video, found with a quick search. Haven’t tried the digital coax cable as of... 
Bluesound node 2i DAC VS Vincent SA-T7 DAC
Oh I want to mention that the fiber cable is very small in diameter and pretty flexible. It would be very easy to drill a small hole in the drywall to run this cable. My router is in another room as well, and right now it’s running along the baseb... 
Bluesound node 2i DAC VS Vincent SA-T7 DAC
At first I had tidal and got on the MQA bandwagon and the fact it had more content. However I realized this content was mostly music I didn’t care for. I also found that I preferred qobuz hi res SQ over tidal’s MQA. So as far as my connection goes... 
Bluesound node 2i DAC VS Vincent SA-T7 DAC
Hey thanks rocray! Same here, I’m a vinyl guy, but my thorens is currently away being restored so digital it is. I now have three DACs, the bluesound, the Vincent, as well as a music hall c-dac 15.3 dac/cd player. I run my television audio through...

Dang it! Just checked my amazon history when I bought the fiber optic bridging gear. Prices have dropped by about half! Anybody streaming should do this tweak, you have no excuse now! Dramatically improves sound. Oh and I did get cat 8 Ethernet ca...

I Need Some Opinions...
Another vote for the Hana cartridge here. I have the the Hana EH and it blew away the ortofon 2m blue I had before. 
I'm interested in hearing what "the best" systems sound like, where to go?
My 2 cents...let me first start by telling you I’m a member of the suncoast audiophile society here in the Tampa Bay Area. I have heard many systems, both privately and at shows. I have a somewhat modest system:bob Latino ST-120dynaco pas-2 with e... 
Vincent Audio tube preamp SA-T7 & SP-332 power amp
Hi guys and gals! So I have this preamp for about a month, got an open box from audio advisor at a discounted rate. At first I didn’t care much for the sound. For a unit costing in the $2500 range, it just didn’t have the “magic”. I was going to s...
