| Different amplifier class for different music genres? I don't think so---it would be extremely challenging to someone like me who listens to everything (classical, house, trance, classic rock....) | |
| Morrow Audio related to Audiogon? Why so many emails? I have Morrow cables and they are quite good. However, I still get tons of email as well. I also bought them on the 'Special 40% off' sale. LOL | |
| Vinyl...should I stay, or should I go? I understand how you feel. I've often thought about the same thing over the years but I eventually kept all of my vinyl. I have 45s, LPs and hundreds of 12" singles--I'm too emotionally attached to my vinyl. They hold too many fond memories for me... | |
| Bluesound is great when it works, but ... I purchased a NAD integrated a few years ago with BluOs and hated it so I returned it. I use Spotify Connect and the connection was if-y at best. If I would pick up my iPhone and walk around it would lose the signal. And when I got news alerts, th... | |
| Integrated Amp for Dynaudio Special 40 Hi @terracebk21 I just saw this thread today and was wondering what you decided on for your integrated? I have Special 40s and drive them with a Luxman 505UXII and they sound awesome. I hope you're happy with whatever you decided to get. | |
| SS Budget "Tone" Integrated Amplifiers Marantz PM8006 is a great integrated amp---Marantz tends to be on the warm side if that's what you're looking for. | |
| How do I get my mp3s from my hard drive to my speakers? With my system, I was able to add my songs from my hard drive to my Spotify account. My Marantz ND8006 CDP has a Wifi streamer with a decent DAC. So I stream from my iPhone to the Marantz. Works for me and sounds excellent, Hope this helps. | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Kraftwerk - Man Machine. Good stuff, hard to believe its from 1978! | |
| Soft, smooth organic SS integrated amps? According to McCormack's website, they have suspended production on all products and no longer have back inventory---probably due to COVID? Anyway, D-Sonic amps are quite good and should be within your budget. Good luck! | |
| Is your system amazing and you just dont see it? We want to 'upgrade' or improve nearly everything else in our lives---iPhones, cars, appliances, etc. So why not our audio systems? It's fun to try something new. If you're happy with your system, good for you. If you want to shop around, go for i... | |
| How Do You Store Your Record Collection? Recommendations Please! I have IKEA Kallax units which work just fine---lots of different configurations you can choose from. | |
| Taking time (and time outs) to enjoy the ride... Great points to all. One of my favorite 'feelings' when listening to my music/system is when I get actual goosebumps. It doesn't happen all the time---but when it does, it's truly moving. | |
