DarTzeel’s new direction
I’ve heard Dartzeel a couple of times. I must say the stack that I heard was fantastic ….. but damn they’re ugly. I wouldn’t buy them even if I could afford. Aesthetics are important.   
???YOUR Personal Favorite???Why???
1st place- Green Mountain Audio Chroma w/ the upgraded crossover. Unflappable, completely transparent and if you like SPL they have that in abundance. 2nd place: Nola Brio w/ the Nola Subs… Something about that Nola sound is so captivating. I mad... 
Open baffle speakers
I have some older spatials, never wanted for bass at all. I think the ear-brain needs burn in time to fully appreciate the difference in sound, especially the bass region. Was watching a a movie the other night and appreciating the bass response a... 
Audio Fantasies
I found a pair of Anthony Gallo 5LS. Driven by blue circle pre and amp. Fed by BluOS streamer and a michel gyrodec  mkI w/ a Zeta tionearm and Sumiko cart. It took a long time to put together. It’s too bad Gallo went to architectural speakers beca... 
Can anyone identify this equipment?

I just want to say the new NAD class d amps are very clean but there is no warmth at all. A friend just tried out the preamp / amp stack of the master’s series. Very clean but NO WARMTH. I liked it on Maggies, my friend did not. For what it’s worth.

Would you move to a bigger house if you could just to have a better listening room ?

My Caladan Impressons
@aniwolfe — curious how you like your speakers. Heard them at RMAF a few years ago. Was dumbstruck with dynamics punch detail soundstage.. would be an endgame for me.(sorry to hijack the post).  
Speakers On Wheels?
I have 2 sets of speakers on wheels: one is because the speakers have the tweeter and mid in a stone sculpture, the second because they are 8’ tall line-source speakers. Just match the thread size and order on line. I’ve tried both poly based whee... 
on the cheap
Search Amazon for “Bluetooth streamer”. You can get a basic metal box with a blue light which is very reliable, well built, and will likely meet your needs for $60. I have one in my office. I will check the brand tomorrow at work. DM me tomorrow i...
