| What were your favorite gear additions in 2024? My favourite gear additions were. . . . 1. Aurender N100 2. Denafrips Iris 3. Denafrips Pontus II That being said, since I got the new gear, my Musical Fidelity integrated has been in the shop for most of the time so I haven't spent hardly an... | |
| 2025 Audio System Wish List Time! Since I retired, I usually don't "plan" to do much of anything. That being said, when it comes to my audio system, two things that recently became top of mind are fixing my room acoustics and buying new speakers. I am pretty handy, so the room ... | |
| And a Ho! Ho! Ho! To All! Happy Festivus Everybody!! We are on line, so we will need to forego the "feats of strength" this year. My Festivus pole is up. (Insert crude remark here). Regarding the "airing of grievances", well...... That's up to you and yours. Cheers e... | |
| Why isn’t more detail always better? I think that too much detail in music results from the same issues that make some 4K movies hard to watch. Ultra-high resolution video sometimes reveals all the flaws in the sets and makeup, that would normally be invisible on a standard blu-ray ... | |
| How Many Times Do You Have To Listen To Understand A Piece Of Music? I know it's not fair, but I am quite judgmental when listening to new music. If I don't want to listen to the entire song, then it has almost zero chance of getting a second chance. | |
| Room is way too bright. @lovehifi22 "I keep hearing about this"first point of reflection." What exactly is that?" Did you do any online research at all? There is a ton of information on this subject at your fingertips, yet you seem completely ignorant of even the bas... | |
| Top 10 Live Albums @dayglow Lotus?? | |
| Top 10 Live Albums This is not a ranking based on which is the best. It is just the order in which they entered my almost 70yo brain. 1. "Live at the Fillmore East" by The Allman Brothers Band (1970). Simply the best. 2. "Live Johnny Winter And" by Johnny Winter ... | |
| What % Of Your System Are Your Cables? Although I am retired, I refuse to do a deep dive into the actual ratio, but my best guess would be a maximum of around 10%. | |
| Whole Lotta Led Saw them twice. Pure magic. | |
| Ugliest Component of the Year 2024! @barts "So it goes." | |
| Ugliest Component of the Year 2024! An oldie but goody. Why they haven't changed their designs at some point, can only be explained by a company wide lack of any design sense. https://tektondesign.com/product/full-range-speakers/flagship/1812-model-v12/#color | |
| Moving from a stereo amp to a dual mono set up I feel your pain. I would suggest you watch the original 1948 version of the movie, "Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House", starring Cary Grant and Myra Loy. Suffice to say, you will know exactly how Cary feels about how simple projects can turn... | |
| Tinnitus Was hoping this article contained some sort of concrete research that might help we tinnitus sufferers, but all it is, is a collection of "this MIGHT help", "research MAY find" and "someday this MAY happen". If wishes were horses, beggars would r... | |
| TL Electronics https://www.reddit.com/r/audiophile/comments/1gzql1l/tlelectronics_legit_or_scam/ I don't know what happened to your dealings with TL Electronics, but this is exactly why I don't deal with any company that doesn't have a retail history and verifi... |
