How you know your system is improving?
I'd like to add that your senses, mind and attitude are all part of your endeavor. Sounds cliche but your mind will expand and learn over time, your senses will become more acute because you're are focusing your energy on them. Your attitude or se... 
Proac K6 Signature, Sonus Faber Amati Tradition,Verity Audio Amadis, Kharma DB-9
I somewhat agree with Toronto416. I've also heard that the speakers are relatively indestructible (blowing) as far as the drivers are concerned. My concern would be if someone put a broomstick or something through a driver. Who will fix it? Are t...

@bigwave1 I bought a pair of Bose 401's from Crazy Eddie.  
Spendor D7.2 Pairing - First Watt F8
When you said large and open it makes me think less boundary reinforcement and might be better of with something like the Volti or Forte 4. I’ve owned Devores, Verity, Daedalus, Zu Union, and demoed the D7. I really like the Forte but I’m in a les...

@jc4659 Yes heard from a source very close that it is true, they are no longer in business. Too bad, a reminder that everything is fragile.  
Threshold Stasis S/150
My dad gave me his old McIntosh gear. It's great and nostalgic and rebuilt to spec but it still sounds like 70's gear. It's great for the time period and fun to have but never want to pull out the Leben or the Pass to play the old stuff. That sai...

Are You A Disciplined Audiophile?
@noromance +1 Thankfully it's easier to change threads than equipment. More than 10,000 posts and you should be kicked off this site.   
Alternative to Sonos.
I have a yoga studio and use Sonos (newer model) and it works most of the time. A few teachers have issues with the music cutting in and out and I’ve never been able to get to the bottom of it. All on the wifi system, perhaps something to do with ... 
Looking for... Integrated tube amp with phono
The VAC is reaaly nice. Even the older Avatar can be had for around $3400 used. Use the extra cash to take your neighbors to lunch.  Let us know what you end up with. "Pump up the Volume..."
