Looking for new speaker cables
You don't know me but I have settled on these Shunyata Research Alpha Speaker Cables and like wow. Also dig Cardas Clear Beyond (anything in that line) and most of the better Transparent offerings.   
What does the audio term 'air' mean?
@audio-b-dog  Beat's me (well sort of) but I very much enjoyed your post. So thanks. To Err Is Human. To Jane Eyre is to Charlotte Brontë. AIR was a cool group.( remember La femme d'argent? ) To Air is to audiophile?  
What is the most overlooked consideration?
What is the most overlooked consideration? For over sixty years, starting when I was just a kid, I’ve seen/listened to all kinds of systems, from setups built on spare change to rooms well into six figures. And time and time again, the room—the r... 
Frequently asking to re-login
This stinks big time To get code(s) I have to go outside as there’s zippo cell service in house. Using phone, iPad, laptop or desk top only furthers the PIA problem as sign in is device independent.  Oh Tammy where art thou?  Maybe in this age o... 
Qobuz Connect Launched Yesterday
@all Have the latest version of app and desktop software but still no joy.      
Qobuz Connect Launched Yesterday
Dang I Only get the Lumin to work using icky AirPlay. Have version 9.0 of Qobuz installed.  Device (Lumin) not showing up under selected device. Other streamers not (yet???) supported. Thus I ruminate and use Roon.   
Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby?
It ain't Over 'til the Fat Lady Sings.  
Hlep chosing a streamer/server for my DAC
@diminishedchord  A flat for me was optical into a Lumin x1. It sounded sterile compared to copper. As always YMMV. Please tell us about your router/switch and how signal get’s to the streamer and what other connects are in the digital chain.    
Best Match/Best Synergy?
Yup. What’s in dah house going with the Borresen 02? With speakers like the Borresen 02‘s most here would be assuming budget is very healthy.   
Hlep chosing a streamer/server for my DAC
Another vote for (used) Lumin or Innous. Down the line…,,A lot of streaming folks use Roon. You need a roon server or a streamer w/ Roon. It’s a likely progression. Back when, I left the Macbook for better sound and got it.  Given the all in of a... 
Speakers for leading edge, transients, speed and big sound
Another voice in cyberspace for Klipsch horns latest model.  Plenty of them to score next to as new.  You can add upgraded drivers and a pair of subs ( a must ) and get ready for takeoff. Well under 20K. Sonus Faber II Cremonese while not horns a...

Listening Room or Components or my ears?
About room treatments.. most places will come up with a plan for you after you send them photos and measurements and the web is full of info. Your first reflection point is the biggie. I used Music City Acoustics and it worked out well. Many syste... 
What Meatloaf and Beer Have Taught me about Audiophiles
@erik_squires  Turkey Meatloaf is a favourite around here. Back in my home brewing days an IPA or Pilsner Urquell like beer was on tap in five gallon soda containers. (I may have become somewhat carried away with home brewing.) Blueberry flavoure...
