| How old are you? Double nickel and a dime. Tunes cranked now and for most of it. Time takes its toll; have exact change. | |
| An old phrase which, I believe, may be timely... +1 about Caveat-venditor. Those rascal caveats can cut both ways. Bad behaviour so prevalent on the internet reaches across many factions. Many are emboldened to behave with out simple basic politeness that a face to face transaction would have. | |
| B&W vs. Sonus Faber +1 for sub w/ SF. + 1 for a sub(s) with most speakers/rooms. | |
| What sends shivers down your spine when you play it on your system? @aewarren Who is "John Coletrain"? He was a famous typo who played the saxamphone. Bebop a rooney.He's often confused with John Coletrain who drove a white Jaguar E type and maybe is notable for a few other things.. Go ask Alice, I think she'll know. | |
| B&W vs. Sonus Faber Or maybe used in the 16K range? You can a LOT of great stuff.I'm a happy SF camper but for 16K maybe some Tanny's or Revels?https://www.audiogon.com/listings?q=Sonus+Faber+https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisa42fd-tannoy-kensington-gr-prestige-fu... | |
| Why is there no love for Prima Luna? I have love for PL . I had two PL HPs and sold one and replaced for a Roger's High Fidelity to better drive 86 db speakers. The one I kept drives 92 db speakers. Like with so many things if the AMP/speakers mesh well then sit back and enjoy the mu... | |

| Should I still buy a CD player? Suggest one? Fires are life changing. I imagine not only your sound pleasures got zapped. Sorry. But now it’s rebirth time. New gear is fun!Steaming is a lovely Pandora’s box. Sooooo much. Too much. Jump all over or dive deep. I was all records, then CD’s but ... | |
| To Roon or not @lukaske Kills the sound, aka rapes?You have especially nice equipment; I wonder if a setting is off? I have heard Roon on a few systems and in my crib I think the sound is just slightly better with the Lumin software. Do I have Lumin bias?????My ... | |
| To Roon or not I wrote to LUMIN about the app and got an answer leading nowhere.As I'm looking at north of another 2K+ (dedicated computer and lifetime subscription fee) I'm dragging and tire kicking more than normal.If I were ROON i'd be at work licensing to Ti... | |
| To Roon or not tvadJust noticed that roon takes -6DB to run. Do you think this is the difference I'm hearing? I mean, duh, a bit louder would sound "better."Do you think running Roon from an iPad (in turn running a computer) would degrade sound? My amp needs an... | |
| To Roon or not No doubt UI is far better than native LUMIN UI. Will they upgrade it down the road? It’s lagging. Even iTunes was much better! Tvad and Erik are you using a computer to run Roon? Using a streamer of just a computer? TIA. | |
