Cool looking gear always sounds than ugly gear 
Sopra 2 Bass
Hey there, one thing to make sure of. Make sure your node 2i  is t on “subwoofer” setting which is essentially a high pass filter which sends all the low frequencies to a sub. You probably don’t have this mistake but I made a month ago and was ver... 
What's your dream speaker?
Alsyvox Botticelli…. Heard them at RMAF in 2019 and for me they were the best in show. They were in a massive room with no subs. It’s like a top of the line Maggie but with bass and slamming dynamics.. pretty too!!

Why wont speaker companies publish their measurements?
Hey Kenjit,I know you get a ton of flack around here, but by the numbers you’re one of the most popular posters on this site.  
New Audiophile going crazy
Jj228,I am currently in your position. Keep it up. Stay strong, never give in.... and I’ve got  some gear you should totally buy 
Mickey Mouse Ears
I think this is why many thought Barack Obama was known as a good listener  
Speaker Audition
+1 on Spatial Audio. They have an open baffle horn hybrid.  
Opening Record Store
Oh Millercarbon.     Your thumbnail pic explains you...., YOU'RE A GENIUS!!!!.. and probably probably a really stable one... but to the OP , $10k will buy some great speakers, think used Wilsons!!  
I've been dragged to recommendations, kicking and screaming
Tidal is owned by Jay-Z .. which is why you get hip-hop/rap suggestions... I get them as well..
