| Best bass in Earth! Bass that just smells right... Just build a bomb shelter (no really, we’ll probably need one in the immediate future) but set a room up with as much soundproofing/dampening and then start dropping subs IMO. Think about how dampening improves sound in a car. | |
| Upgrading System...Help/opinions on Parasound and others? I would choose the Primaluna Evo then the Vincent. That depends on speakers also. | |
| Publications and websites for equipment reviews Some sources you have to take with an understanding that they gotta advertise for their clients. User reviews are best for me. Take it all into consideration though. | |
| Preamp recommendation Classe CAV-150. Classe SSP preamp. Get the analog stereo to roll with. | |
| Room correction help https://youtu.be/1G442kuJvkcOne and done. You can treat the room and it helps but as I was told... | |

| Blow dryer causes audible buzz from power amps in two audio systems... Tell her to stop calling her 240vtoy a blow dryer. | |
| Good Inexpensive Amp for Back Yard Speakers Sonance 2120T quality, clean andcheap. | |
| Used DACs in the 10k range I want you to take the $80 challenge. If you buy it, you can always have it for a friend or a bathroom system. Topping D10. Impressive for small cheddar. 32k with opamps if you aren’t satisfied. The one included is well regarded. Zero snob appeal ... |
