Maybe your dog can hear better than you and he is trying to tell you something - get rid of the speakers.   
Lampizator Questions
@jc51373 My question was relevant since it was pertaining to the Lampizator DAC.  In regards to your advise - "Why not ask Lampizator this question".  Well, my intention was to hear from knowledgeable, unbiased users of Lampizator, and not direct... 
New, Very Interesting CD Transport
@magnuman :You're absolutely right.  However, I believe that TEAC made the VRDS clamping transport for Esoteric - just messing with you. Cheers.   
How do I know if my systems any good?
@mahgister: Well, assuming that the sound perception is personal and subjective: What would be the point of discussing sound systems and good sound in general if everyone has different opinion and sound preference. And how do we explain the fact ... 
How do I know if my systems any good?
@mahgister : "Why work on finding fault with your system? A great use of time is finding more music that you enjoy." Because we’re perfectionist and need both - great music material and even better sound system. When you love what you do, it real... 
How do I know if my systems any good?
Assuming you’re experienced audiophile/music lover. If you listen to your system on daily basis for about a month and after every other song you hear, you still shake your head of disbelieve of how good the sound is, you just might have an excelle...

Some new E-bay scams
Buyers are treated like VIP on Ebay. You can always make an excuse for returning an item, even if you buy new, and you don’t have to pay for the shipping either. On the other hand, sellers are scrutinized and scammed by the buyers all the time. Fo...

Lampizator Questions
@designsfx Does it have to relate to your original question? Are you taking an offense, because I din’t ask for your permission. Don’t you see that almost no one on this forum is interested in your question. In addition, my question was not even a... 
Lampizator Questions
@willgolf My question to you is: Do you know why Lampi started making dac’s with indirect heated tubes and later they switched to DHT and now their flagship unit Horizon is back to using IHT with the wapping price tag of 49,000.00. Did they ran ou... 
Dac: Old vs New
Don’t listen to anyone except your ears/brain. This hobby of ours is time consuming but if you are into it, can be extremely rewording and gratifying. It is not for everyone, that’s why audiophiles are on the minority. The process of getting the b... 
Used vs. new
My humble advise to you is to buy good, used equipment with a proved reference or near reference status for no more than the current used market value or less. Ask yourself the question - how many of the new/current hifi equipment would stand the ... 
How do you find time to enjoy your $$$ speakers and system?
From an early morning to a late at night and sometimes over the entire night.  Music is my drug.  It makes me happy and complete. I also learned  how to multitask while listening to music  and it helps when you're semiretired and working from home... 
What can beat Wilson XVX for less money?
Sorry to say, but I’m very disappointed in all of you. You cannot evaluate speaker performance or for that matter hi-fi system performance based on limited time of listening at different venues. Ask yourself the question. How many times you fall i...
