| Rediscovery All of my CD's are ripped and are on a network drive and backup locations. I play the ripped CD's and stream music via Qobuz through Roon. I listen to my music through Roon in multiple rooms so CD's don't make much sense for me anymore. I don't... | |

| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? I have not posted my system in this forum because I think that it is nobody's business what kind of gear that I have. I don't make a lot of posts on this forum anyway. Most posts that I have made are regarding gear that I have owned. For me, my ... | |
| Need advice on what to purchase to hold 1TB of music and connect to my new Innuos Pulsar. Innous appears to have the ability to play files that are on a USB drive installed in a networked computer. The trick is to get the music folder on the USB drive configured as a shared folder. For me, it was easy to set that up on a MAC and a pa... | |

| Hidden Gems in Classic Rock Albums Fleetwood Mac’s Kiln House is a gem. The guitar playing is fantastic throughout. The song writing is very good and ranges from snarling, epic rock jams, slide guitar blues, to the lovely Like Crying. The classic song ‘Oh Well” in on the album. ... | |
| MQA Declares Bankruptcy My opinion is that MQA never really had a chance because it is a proprietary technology. MQA adds costs and complexity throughout the music/supply chain to play high resolution music when the competition is using a standardized format that is f... | |
| 2023 AXPONA Show Report I went to Axpona last year. I won't go this year. From my perspective, it was an exercise in excess. Most vendors were displaying gear that was way past my budget. Plenty of vendors had setups that cost as much as an automobile and fill an enti... | |
| Ripping CD's to hard drive I have ripped my CD's to AIFF files using iTunes on my iMac. I have done that partly because I am lazy and partly because iTunes allows me to automatically have my ripped music collection automatically synched to my iPhone as lower resolution fil... | |
| Why do we stop listening to new music as we get older? Most people that I know in my age group do not listen to new music at all. That is not me.

| I feel bad for Generation X and The Millennial's I’m a Boomer and there is no way that I would consider any era of music to be better than another.
