| Power Conditioners Like you where I dwell the power is poor. First off a whole house surge protecter was installed when after a brown out knocked out all the AC unites and the septic pump failed. Good times in a California valley summer. Several others have counsele... | |
| If you listen to anything other than Classic Jazz, don't read this. The longer I swim in this swirling vortex passion the more I know the room is key. Some or a lot of room treatments can not be ignored. Power too. The room daddy oh; the room will make it copacetic (said like Ben Sidran or Ken Nordine). For me Jaz... | |

| Want to get into Streaming I tired Roon but unless I missed the boat it didn’t play hi res files off of Qobuz or from Qobuz playlists. Did I miss something? | |
| Who's Gone Topless? Heat is work and work is heat (ΔU=q+w) perhaps that might have something to do with the perceived better sound? I’d assume that no top/sides would let heat dissipate better.Thermodynamics has to be some sort of real factor in preformance?Vibration... | |

| How far away from your speakers are you? Thanks Larry5729 I rechecked with the Ballad of a Runaway Horse by Jennifer Warnes and felt placement and imaging good but had to mess anyway. I sit 9’ from speakers.“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it said no audiophile“ never. | |
| Focal Clear vs ZMF Aeolus Have an older pair of ZMF Blackwoods and prefer them over myMrSpeakers Ethers. Zack knows his stuff and has a great tuning ability. | |
| Top ten American composers/songwriters Carla Bley please!The "list" is almost entirely men.Mildred J. Hill wrote the most popular song of all time. She should make every list yet no one knows who the is. I had to look her up!Perhaps a split between composers/songwriters would be better... | |
| I need advice for power cords +1 on room! F I R S T! Think of it this way Many parts add up to the whole of your delivered sound. Room dynamics (If the room is poor there’s only so much tweaking the rest can do) I’ve heard great sound from moderate gear in a stellar room and a... | |
