Are their paid boosters on Audiogon?
I'm sure they exist but so far here they have not been too obnoxious nor obvious.  Following a recent audio show, a new member appeared on ASR and has been over the top shilling Eversolo in multiple threads.  I assume it happens to one degree or a... 
How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers?
He is a hater and a shill.  At best his kits offer small and likely inaudible improvements.

Please tell me how to set up simple computer system
Budget? Powered speakers with an internal DAC would be simplest if you are ok with running a wire from the laptop to the speakers. If you don't want to run the wire then networked powered speakers would be the next best way to connect to the laptop  
Soft-dome tweeter damage - NBD or permanently compromised?
@b_limo I am pretty sure that was a metal dome tweeter and not a soft/silk dome tweeter in the Erin video.   
What are your thoughts on Raidho?

Chesky Audio LC1 bookshelf speakers - a sonic bargain!
They look like a good deal.  I have yet to see any measurements though.  
Chinese DAC's
@yoyoyaya that is correct.  Also, since the tariffs apply when landed and country that has a 90 day delay, must have goods on the water by the middle to end of May to get them through customs before July 4. One of our customers (we are a manufact... 
Bryston or Yamaha?
@soix if they aren’t being used then they shouldn’t be creating any noise. Hard to believe anyone would use those 30+ year old coax and optical inputs over a much better modern external DAC.  
Bryston or Yamaha?
@soix I doubt the 30+ year old Yamaha is digitizing any analog inputs.  
Bryston or Yamaha?

Sub woofer naive question day
