New Outlets Lead to Better Sounding and Tasting Coffee
I have a hand grinder, 1Zpresso JX S Manual Coffee Grinder, so unless I'm too week to grind my own I should be good to go!   
Is Magnepan still in business ?
@hilde45 Terrible comparison!  
(SEARCH) DAC HOLO SPRING 3
Then why can you still order one at kitsunehifi webpage? Also the way you talk is it's a FACT that the Musetec is the equivalent to the Audio Holo May. You might want to add in YOUR OPINION because I am SURE many people do not agree with this.  
What happened to Rotel?
In almost ALL cases even with product registration most companies require a receipt! Nothing unusual at all here.  
I feel bad for Generation X and The Millennial's
I'm a boomer but I'm SURE every generation says this about other generations.   
Using streaming as a main source ---DSD, FLAC, MQA Streamers and DACS
MQA is much more popular than these forums would indicate because of some very outspoken people. Not everyone hates it, but the haters have an obsession to make sure everyone in the world understand how bad it is.

I think it's more about the quality control of the product rather than the fact it's made in China. I own a Holo Audio May and Serene KTE and the build quality and quality of parts is amazing. Smart companies having products made in China supervis... 
Why is everyone so down on MQA?
I listen to Tidal with only initial unfolding and it sounds fine to me. I also had Qobuz for a few months and compared them both and finally decided on Tidal. I couldn't tell much of a difference between the two. Honestly, I think much of the hate... 
Experience with Black Cat and/or Triode lab Wires
I have 3 of TWL Power cables and they are very nicely made and would recommend them. Haven't tried any of their other cables yet.

I do too but with that being said I find the majority of audiophiles very intolerant and annoying, myself included.  
Open Baffle Experience
@jayctoy I also heard their speakers at AXPONA 2022 and they also sounded off to me. They were using LTA electronics so I'm unsure of what the problem was. Another speaker company I was interested in was Pure Audio Project. Has anyone heard these?  
Streamer Recommendation.
Definitely auralic.    
AXPONA 2023
I stayed at the Hyatt this year when I went and even used award points and it was fine. They even had the shuttle buses that take you to the event. I'm with you and usually like to stay at the show's Host hotel but these prices are just crazy!  
Has something gone wrong @ Stereophile?
Why don't you renew at discount mags? So much cheaper than the prices directly from Stereophile. I've been doing it for years. Wait for their sales and you can get a 2-year renewal for almost nothing!  
Streamed music sounds awful in my system and I don't know why ....
Let me ask you a question. Under what circumstances have you tried streaming from your PC?  What DAC and how did you do it? Please be specific.
