Sony HAP-Z1ES Hi-Res Music Player RMAF 2013

Using a RS SPL meter
90 db is pretty loud for constant listening. I hope you do not ruin your hearing or listen for long periods at that level. Although if your in room response is as bad as the measurements say..... your real levels may be quite a bit lower. 
Joseph Audio RM 25XL speakers
He must be a professional reviewer,..... Loves everything placed in their system, but doesn't own long enough to really give it a chance! Talk about never getting off the "Merry-Go-Round". 
CD copies
I use http://www.cirlinca.com/ for this exact same thing. It takes some getting used to works just fine for what you are trying to achieve. Hi-Resolution DVD-a sounds wonderful. I copy my music on the slowest DVD media I can find. Try to buy the o...

Music that really moved me
After my father passed in 2003 he was 82 and a WWII Vet. Buried with full Honours and they played Taps. I have never heard that song the same way since then. I can hardly keep from getting teary whenever I hear it now.I also get sentimental when I...

You can catch up on the ones you missed for a little fee if you like. I missed a few days while on vacation, fortunately I listened to the samples and I think I can live without the two that I missed. They did this last year as well.For those who ... 
transport quality???
IIRC, the Lexicon RT-20 uses a transport made by Pioneer. I had several of the "elite" players over the years and their transports and laser systems were always top of the line and made for great listening and viewing. I doubt that Lexicon made an... 
My first OLED display
Try to wait until after the Holidays and CES 2014. There will be more competition and price flexibility after the new year begins.If you cannot wait, try to work a deal with a dealer who is using one as a demo and offer them 60 percent. You should... 
Question about Morrow ICs?
If you can hear a difference and prove it in a blind set up I will donate $1 million dollars to your favourite charity.Just enjoy the cables and try not to be an anal audiophile. Enjoy your music and be content that you can afford a nice music pla... 
Survey:What Speakers Do You Want To Demo in Store?
Raidho, Evolution Acoustics, and Vapor Audio would all be on my short list. 
Problem after using a CD laser lens cleaner . . .
Glad to see you got thing up and running again. It is always a pain and a little scary when are equipment acts up. 
Problem after using a CD laser lens cleaner . . .
Try using compressed air. I would start by using it from about 3 inches away from the cd drawer and get progressively closer.I do not think the soft brushes would scratch a glass optical lense. They are really quite durable. I have a 20 year old S... 
Is the Simaudio Moon Eclipse good value? Help
I agree with JMc. I have had excellent luck with buying expensive and well reviewed gear from yesteryear. You get what you pay for IME. 
Dream System: Magico + Coincident + Wavelength ?
Got to go with the majority on this one. I would not be pairing the Magico and Dragon together. Be sure to demo them together at your preferred listening level and with your favorite music.
