| Neil Young’s Lonely Quest to Save Music @tooblue For me, streaming is great on Tidal and Qobuz. The enjoyment factor is unparalleled compared to other mediums. I am including things like sound quality, convenience, discovery, and even online community (though I miss going to record stor... | |
| Neil Young’s Lonely Quest to Save Music As Tim Cook, the head of Apple, recently told a reporter, without any evident trace of humor, “We worry that the humanity is being drained out of music.” That is the first positive statement from Apple regarding their destruction of music quality. | |
| Torus RM-15 or Bryston Bit-15 owners. Do you plug in your amp to them? I plugged my old Bryston 7B-SST and 4B-SST amps (at different times) into them. I had very bad power in one place I lived and plugging it into the Torus allowed me to listen with the 7B-SST. Prior to that the fuse on the apartment would flip. I be... | |

| Any Love For Bryston Here? James Tanner hand delivered my first amp to me, a 3B-ST, at Whitby Audio in Canada on his way to the Peterborough office (or home). I have communicated by email and on the online forum with Bryston personal and I have nothing but good things to sa... | |

| Buyer is claiming damage that was done by him! @yogiboy I hope you can leave user feedback on this transaction.I was reading an interview with the Harbeth designer and he said that he designs the speakers with the intention that the grills are used. Everytime I have demoed them the dealers alw... | |
| AMP or Preamp I should add that you may want to give the Benchmark AHB2 amp a demo (30 day free home trial). It is small, light, $3K, and sounds great. Supposedly the quietest amp you can buy. I am buying this amp again (sold it) as a backup and to use in the s... | |
| AMP or Preamp I am not a tube guy but recently I heard a Line Magnetic integrated that is supposed to be a new release and costing $5K. It was driving a Wilson speaker costing $16K (I forgot the name). It sounded pretty good and the 2 other tube guys (long time... | |
| New Magico A1 Bookshelf Speakers! The best stand mount I have auditioned so far was the TAD ME1. However, it is 2X the cost of what I would like to pay for a stand mount ($15K with stands). | |
| New Magico A1 Bookshelf Speakers! If you are LA area, Brooks Berdan has them on display. I get emails from them. | |
| Equipment Rack Between Speakers...Good or Bad For closure to my previous post here is Luxman’s feedback on AES48 support.The M900u / C900u do not support AES48 standard. The engineering team does not recommend using only pins 2 and 3 to conduct signal... without pin 1 in use, the units would ... | |
