| Should I upgrade from REL/510 subwoofer to REL/812 subwoofer? It is! | |
| Should I upgrade from REL/510 subwoofer to REL/812 subwoofer? Yep... a second sub. While it will be good for explosions on TV... most importantly it will extend the sound stage of your two channel system. I | |
| Weiss DAC 204 hiccups I recommend putting a wifi extender close to your audio system and plug in to that for your signal. Depending on the rest of your equipment the better the streamer the better the sound quality and the more isolation from the network. Streamers lik... | |
| Wireworld Platinum Starlight® 10 Twinax and AQ Diamond @buellrider97 Are you asking if the sonic characteristics are shared across, say interconnects, usb and power cords of the same brand and tier? I have noticed that the same brand and tier of speaker wire, interconnect and power cord has the sam... | |
| What's a good alternative to SF amati g5? @emergingsoul I don't have a lot of pre 2000 photos... although probably 1,000. As digital cameras came into their own, this became possible. It has been amazing as it became possible to take photos of people... then at night, then people at nig... | |
| Why the huge increase in the price of Sonus Farber Amanti G5 speakers. @1971gto455ho You sure are cynical. While there are a few companies that attempt and get away with charging "excessive" prices for their products, they are far between. Certainly not in tiny markets in highly discretionary markets. If folks do... | |

If you would post some photos and ID your components under your user ID in virtual systems we could see it... and as it comes together while upgrading the venue. | |
| Encouraging people to consider a traditional 2 channel stereo system. I suppose invite youngsters over, directly or indirectly. I guess, by that I mean under 30 years old. When I was in that age group I remember a couple of experiences of being over an someones house (by accident) with a truly great stereo. The sou... | |
| Another Major Audio Company Sold Fortunately Audio Research landed on its feet in a much better place. Yes, it has happened to a lot of high end audio companies. They are not enormously profitable, or large companies, so are easily buffeted by economics and management. Like small... | |
| Last night the Music took over…. @lalitk Thanks for the Coleman Hawkins and Webster reference. I am enjoying it. It has been a while since I listened to this recording. | |
| Are there any stand alone servers, that do NOT have a streaming function? OK, sorry about this: Fifteen or twenty years ago, stand alone servers were built. Then on-line streaming sources became available and got included with built in storage. For the last few years the amount of on line storage has been declining bec... | |
| Nordost Valhalla 2 Speaker Cable I find Nordost turns at Valhalla. I have not been impressed with the tiers below. But Valhalla are great and get better at tiers above. Getting them cooked is a good idea. You are likely to be really happy. You have some great components. Lookin... | |
| Preamp for Luxman M-10X other than C-10x I am familiar with the Luxman M-10. The answer is very much dependent on the sound quality you are going for. Both luxmand and Focal are very trebly and detailed oriented. If you are going for hyper detailed / analytical system then the C-10 or ot... |
