| McIntosh MP100 update? @mrklas thanks for the tip. The c2600 does look very nice. | |
| Got a Node 2i, what's next? My advice is to send your node 2i back, and get the Cambridge Audio CXN V2 which has a good dac built in. It runs about $1k and includes your dac and streamer | |
| Ls50 wireless II vs separates with passive speakers @b_limo @nekoaudio both of these are great ideas to take a look at. thanks! | |

| Some interesting stats from Discogs As a side note, I'm a big St. Vincent fan and she's selling her new album on CD, Vinyl, Cassette, AND 8-track! | |
| Some interesting stats from Discogs @bjp9738 - I live within a mile of two small shops that are mostly empty mid day so I’ve been hitting them up weekly but I can’t wait to venture further out to see more stores. I live in the Bay Area of CA and there are dozens of shops to see. Soo... | |
| Some interesting stats from Discogs I’m one of these people. I’m mid 40s and had records as a kid, then tapes, cds, then pirating mp3s, then buying digital from apple, then Spotify, then Spotify AND Tidal, and finally back to Vinyl. Coming back to physical analog media feels so goo... | |

Tidal connect is still fairly new, Spotify HiFi is coming soon, who knows what else. Find a streamer where you trust the manufacturer is going to continue supporting firm... |
