When CDs first came onto the market in 1982 .......
It’s seems a bit later than 82 but yeah it was awesome. But everything was when you are young. I was an early adopter I think. I remember it being some sort of int unit by Mitsubishi. Me and the gang blown away. To be able to go direct to any trac... 
Do You Tell Others How Much You Have Invested in Your System?
I just stick a yellow posty on each piece of equipment and cables with cost. (-:   
Amp & Pre or Integrated for Dynaudio Heritage Special
I just added a Luxman 509 in and it’s pretty incredible with the Heritage. I was worried maybe some second thoughts with these 85db speakers. But no issues at all. It is sounding really excellent with all genres of music. I auditioned a number of ... 
Simaudio 400m / 860A vs PS Audio BHK250
The 760a is interesting as my dealer I’ve only seen this amp around on a couple of occasions. I have heard the 800 series many times and they are pretty spectacular. I just sent an email to Sim about a serial number of a used unit I was looking a... 
Luxman Knockoffs or Counterfeits?
Will Luxman not look up the serial number for you and tell you mfg date? I’m strongly considering Luxman but have been wondering if they will do this. I am a Simaudio owner and also considering a used preamp from them. I took the serial number fr... 
Luxman 509x vs Hegel H390
Been auditioning for a bit. It came down to Luxman and Krell. Or even Simaudio as an owner but move up. Having a hard time with Luxman leading but I sort of can’t shake the Krell at the same time. What an awesome sounding int. How are the XD amps... 
Simaudio 400m / 860A vs PS Audio BHK250
I own 3 400m for left right center. I’ve had them out in the open on amp stands and I’ve had all three in my audio video cabinet. For an amp not class D pumping this much watts and current they just do not get beyond warm ever. My room is not big.... 
$5K DAC OPTIONS
You have a lot of Simaudio. Have you considered the 280D? Nice streaming DAC. A little below your budget at $4k. I picked one up earlier this summer and really like it a lot.   
What stand mount monitors works w/ Pass XA 30.5?

Alternatives to B&W 805 D4
Oh sorry, I missed the you bought a pair. Congratulations Nice speakers  
Alternatives to B&W 805 D4
I strongly suggest Dynaudio Heritage. Limited to 2500 pairs worldwide. I have a pair. Bowers D are nice speakers as well. Lots of options but for me these were the ones. I’ve owned Bowers, KEF Ref 1 etc. To me the Heritage were the ones. I know h... 
Speakers known for great midrange.
Besides Dynaudio that I suggest, I own Heritage, I really want to hear Simaudio new step into the ring Voice. You didn’t mention budget so staying around $3k. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5UbZx0FT6ZE    
Speakers known for great midrange.
The Harbeth do sound nice from those clips but all those clips music all sounded very similar. Is it fair to say Harbeth is not the best choice for an all arounder and perhaps better with classical or slow jazz? I couldn’t lock myself into a one ... 
Speakers known for great midrange.
Dynaudio Special 40 and the Pass a nice match. Not syrupy but a huge fun factor.
