What Integrated Amp do You use
Esoteric F-05.  Purchased it after realizing that a Rega Elicit R I purchased, while an excellent product simply didn't have the muscle to drive my ATC 19 v2'  properly.  While on paper the amplifiers have sort of similar power ratings the Esoteri... 
What DAC upgrade made you say “DAMN, that sounds SO MUCH better than my last DAC”?
I have been listening to a recent purchase of an Esoteric K-03XD for not quite two weeks and am (coming to grips?) with its sound. It doesn’t sound like a SACD/CD player in the sense that I’m familiar with and it doesn’t sound like a turntable. As... 
My Last CD player
I think CD is better than streaming and SACD at times out performing the best  Lp's.  I decided on purchasing my last SACD/CD player to replace a Yamaha CD-S2100 that I purchased six or seven months ago.  Nothing wrong with the Yamaha, in fact  so... 
What is the #1 equipment want currently on your HiFi horizon???
Well I have to say it's two wants and one arrived (delivered by the good people at Music Direct) a few days ago was my what I am calling my last SACD/CD player that is replacing a Yamaha CD-S2100 SACD/CD player that I purchased six seven months ea...

VINYL SUCKS!
My first thoughts about a thread that starts Vinyl Sucks is ignore it until I clicked on the website and realized that it was that pasty face gen x er, whatever, that for some reason has to give his 2 useless cents on a subject he thinks he knows ... 
to buy or not to buy (ultrasonic record cleaner)
Well I won’t read thru all of these responses so if I’m repeating something I apologize. A couple weeks ago I broke down and purchased a Degritter and am never looking back. The ease of use, the maintenance (it tells you what it needs), quieter th... 
Grounding with a Earth box?
I'm not going to read through all the responses to this question but the OCD Guy video if anyone actually watched it says straight out that the box he built and I'm not sure that he actually sells them is not a replacement for a proper ground syst... 
The Linn Karousel bearing.
To clarify a few things about the LP12, years ago I used to work for an authorized Linn dealer and setup quite a few LP12's at and around the time the Cirkus  upgrade came out.  First, their were I believe a couple of changes to the original beari...
