Why Are People So Concerned About How Others Spend Their Money?
In a double-blind A/B test at normal listening levels most people would have a hard time distinguishing between LS50s and speakers that cost 100x as much.  LOL!!! Says who? Source?   You folks are delusional. Pathetic even.   
I need help with acoustics and speaker wire
Well, the OP was pointless, making a statement, rather than asking for some kind of opinion and advice. It was inevitably coming to a “conclusion” I was expecting.   Good decision regardless. If you never heard any difference from cables during ... 
The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses
I have no idea why, but the Purple fuse I installed the other day on my Innuos ZENith MK3 worked wonders. Shocking actually. A more audible difference than even experimenting with several expensive power cords for my Innuos unit. The fuse is one o...

Roon software bug with Innuous Zenith 3?
The 14,239 albums are among Tidal and Qobuz combined? Sense’s Tidal integration is not full. Meaning the albums you have as favorites in Tidal, will not show under “my music” on Sense. You can access Tidal through Sense though, and stream from it....

Then don’t sweat it. Case closed. You got your money back.

A pair of Kef LS 50 self powered wireless speakers can get you stereo audio that should satisfy most people for a lifetime.  Anything more expensive than that will only be incrementally better Some live in an alternate reality. I want to have w... 
Roon software bug with Innuous Zenith 3?
@wolverine1 none of what’s happening is normal. You should be able to access Innuos via my.innuos.com, even if Sense app on iPhone does not work. As @arafiq advised, try restarting the Zenith.   
Roon software bug with Innuous Zenith 3?
Try my.innuos.com on your iPad browser or a computer. It’s the same thing as the app. The Sense app in my iPad can be a bit clunky and sometimes unresponsive. You will also need to disable Roon first on Innuos settings before being able to use Inn... 
Luxman 509X, 590AXII, or Gryphon Diablo 300 for B&W 802d3
I own the B&W 803 D3. Before they arrived, I owned the Luxman  L-509X. Something was missing big time compared to what I had heard these speakers many times at at least three dealers and a friend. So I switched to another integrated amp, my cu...

I would do speaker cables first.  
How long do you or should you keep your gear.
You keep them until ASR comes up with something that “measures” better 😉😉  
Roon software bug with Innuous Zenith 3?
Roon has all kinds of issues with the new 880. A lot. Database issues and “new rules” is affecting many, and those are crucial. I would not sweat it. Let it work out by itself. I feel for you. It’s frustrating. I am a big Roon fan, but I have a h...

You are getting full refund. He is already out for shipping to you. Paying for shipping to him would be a nice gesture from you. A little kindness, even just a little, goes a long way. That’s what I would do.
