| How many of you are digital only systems? i remember i listened to a podcast recently where the guys (professional gear reviewers) were talking about how entry level turntables used to be better quality sound than entry level dacs and how that's no longer the case. their view was that in ... | |
| How many of you are digital only systems? digital can sound superb. depending on your music tastes, it may be your only option for some things! and despite what the self appointed vinyl police might say, imho there are also tons of vinyl reissues sourced from digital that sound great. it ... | |

| Rack recommendations @ebm i would love to discuss your florida opportunity in private. happy to provide my ss# if necessary @patrickdowns i am leaning towards the salamander stuff, but wow, this mapleshade stuff is awful pretty. appreciate it. | |
| Rack recommendations appreciate the response. i don't have any floor issues (concrete under carpet) and my tables are in flight cases on their own very heavy and stable unit between the speakers. i use an old bookshelf off to the side in its own little "nook" area for... | |
| Anyone else enjoy putting together Frankenstein low to mid-fi -systems? I love doing this - it's how i got into gear. When budgets are limited you do it out of necessity. And anyway, by some standards my current system (expensive as hell, to me) is probably low to mid fi frankenstein. My latest one is my garage stereo... | |
