Current quality of Rune
@sls883  As long as your streaming has sufficient speed and memory resources, Roon doesn't really have a "sound quality" per se unless you are using its dsp features which i don't.  More depends on whether you are using Tidal or Quobuz as they pr... 
Drinking Songs playlest... What am I missing?
Lot of songs here that are great to drink to but not necessarily about drinking--i assume that's what you meant so couple more: Tom Waits--Jockey Full of Bourbon Roy Eldridge and Hot Lips Page--They Raided the Joint (i prefer Asleep at the Wheel... 
Holy Holostages!!
@jmfinney OP I am confused about a couple of things: 1. You advocate use of these for 2 ch but in your original post you talk about using 1 each on your "rear surround speakers"--sounds like you're listening in surround sound as @jolywins asked. ...

@curiousjim   Damn--you made me spit my Irish whiskey all over the living room!  
New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid

Scout's Honor No Internet Search R n' R Triva questions (4)

Amplifier Power tubes - important to sound?
@emergingsoul OK so you started this same discussion in February of this year--did you not like what you heard at that time?  Or did you forget?  Or were you just seeking confirmation of what was said back then?  And if the answer was different th... 
Amplifier Power tubes - important to sound?
@immatthewj Apparently you're the only one not oblivious to the fact that OP started an identical thread to this back in February...and responses have been pretty much the same....maybe this is a test?  
The Mavericks - " Moon and Stars '' .....
Hadn't listened to these guys in a long time--thanks for the reminder.  Raul Malo is a wonderful vocalist.  M&S isn't quite as rollicking as their older stuff--a little more Latin pop-oriented but with his voice it comes off well.   
Stack Audio Auva Isolator
I will be interested in your experience--my understanding is that AUVA w/ spikes will couple (not isolate) the speakers to your concrete floor while your podiums were de-coupling your speakers from the floor--one would think the results would be v... 
Still the demons of GAS pursue me
@mofimadness I understood the attraction of the ADC/DBX joint venture into pink noise generators that you could use to shape a system's sound curve--i used it with sound curves published by various music magazines of pink noise generated in music ...
