| Do you prefer tidy room to messy one with better sound? The only thing I see of real issue, is how tightly your cabling seems to be coming off the tube amp. Looks like it’s got significant tension there. Maybe you could tidy it up, but hey, if it sounds like you want it to, then awesome! And I agree, c... | |
| Mogami 50 ft XLR cable for subwoofer I think you would be better off with a Mogami XLR monitor (speaker) cable. Could be wrong. Best bet for that is probably Sweetwater, Musicians Friend or the like. My band uses them for all of our PA stuff, subs etc. All are powered. So not unlike ... | |

| Help in putting together my system with used equipment on Audiogon and eBay. It’s both. You can have a 2 channel preamp running into a 5 channel amp. But you still only have 2 channels of sound. That is assuming analog out and in. If you have digital out, and your preamp has a surround processor, then that would work, depe... | |

Get solid basics, whether separates or integrated. These days, a good integrated can be as good, if not better, than some separates combos. Either way, start there and m... | |

| Cheap Speaker "Isolation" Solution for 300 lb. Speaker Another vote for Herbie’s. My speakers are 265 each and I use the Herbie’s on a ceramic tile floor. Allows them to be moved a bit if need be and seems to isolate them well. Lots of interesting discussion on “isolation”, coupling etc. | |
| Backing up Roon database and library Roon won’t “find” your NAS, at least it didn’t mine. You’ll need to add it for it to look for it. You’ll need to specify the path and sign in depending on how you have your NAS setup. But then again, that is to bring a NAS library into ROON, not s... | |

| Advantages of owning equipment from major audio brands vs. boutique shops? Stepping into the audio world is a long and winding road. If you can, go listen. If you get a chance go to a trade show. I’m lucky and get to attend one of the largest in the country as Denver is very close to me. Or, just go to a smaller show. Bu... | |
