Thin Line Between Critique and Courtrooms: A Dialogue on the Recent Audiophile Drama
This is the answer to the question we see all too often, "why do we see only good reviews". Reviewers exist to make money, not get sued and lose money.     
Verity Audio speaker manufacturer silent...
@hilroy48  , like RED HAT lite will be so much better. How about we keep politics out of this.  
Cd player
+1 @ghdprentice The Audiolab 6000CDT is an excellent transport and really inexpensive. You don’t want to spend too much in my opinion cuz once you start streaming you going to be spinning CD’s less and less. Rip all your CD’s onto an external SS... 
Giving Advice without recommending your own equipment
If recommending your own purchases was banned you'd get very few to no recommendations. People can only recommend what they have experienced, and the mass majority have only heard what they have personally owned.  
For the love of...kits?
@theflattire ... I just made sealed full range TangBand W8-1808 and has really made me rethink my need for multi- driver boxes. With full range it's mid-range and treble don't loose anything to separates. They are better. Backed up by dual subs an... 
Differences in YouTube, Spotify, etc.
I just now received this from Tidal,,, "Starting April 10, 2024, you will now get access to our music library in full lossless, HiRes FLAC, and Dolby Atmos sound for the same price you pay today. This is because we’re making it easier for everyo... 
Differences in YouTube, Spotify, etc.
Tidal here. Tried Qobuz but heard no difference. Tidal connect is a must (no third party work around to get it setup an running). I plugged my streamer in to my Ethernet  cable and BAM, tidal connect recognized it on my computer and my phone. So e... 
Speaker cable length.
I'd say you're overthinking this. Just cut the one cable to the length you need it and listen. It's a weekend cabin enjoy the music. And then go outside and chop wood.  
Transport Recommendations
@gnoworyta - owned my AudioLab 6000CDT for a couple of years now. Never had a problem with scratching, but I can see and understand the concern. Some see it as a "potential" problem. Some see a tray as a "flimsy problem" waiting to break. There ar... 
Cable Break In for the Naysayers
So well said @puptent     
Transport Recommendations
+5 for the AudioLab 6000CDT. Brilliant simple unit. Designed as a transport only. Excellent power supply. Sound is clean and immediate. I have not had a single CD that would not play in it regardless of condition or origin. I can't see why you wou... 
list of speakers
Don't know if you have done this, can't do this or don't want to for what ever reason but, is it possible that this data base could be open to this community for additions/edits like wikipedia? Could make your job a lot easier and grow fast.   T... 
15 in full range drivers
From what I'm hearing (from my sealed box TangBand W8-1808 single drivers with dual SVS SB1000 pro subs), full range single drivers have opened my eyes/ears to a more liquid sound stage and depth i haven't heard before. Truly unbelievable for just... 
Help me spend $100,000 on a new system
If I was in your situation I'd take a year off and demo/listen/research at dealer(s) letting them know what your plans are. AND, during this 1 year invest that $100000 in a GIC. If it's locked away, your forced to take a year and really figure out... 
Is my amp good enough?
@neversatisfied  I really don’t want to rip mine out as they are nicely installed as far as all the wiring goes.   How about take your existing speakers to A/B with the new speakers (if dealer allows). Use their same electronics to compare. Thi...
