| Looking for a CD Player I love SACD and have 3 players and several hundred SACDs. I listen pretty exclusively to Classical and we have kept SACD alive. However the OP didn’t mention his tastes and apparently owns no SACDs. Just trying to keep it simple for him best se... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados I haven’t done an exhaustive comparative listening of that piece, but my favorite is Bernd Glemser on Naxos. The other 2 in my collection are Claudio Arrau and Wilhelm Kempff. I haven’t heard any of the versions that you mentioned | |
| More potential bad news for some big names... Let’s stop the Politics right now. I go to sites likes to escape it. The long term decline of Audio has been going on for a few decades. We are seeing and another step in the extinction. Apple makes more money on Ear Buds than the entire co... | |
| How To Control The Eager Beaver @larryi I suspect that is the issue. My dealer had just checked the settings on the tt and cart. When I manually lower the arm about half the time the issue occurs; probably I am setting it past the hill on some occasions. | |

| Impulsive drive to buy the EverSolo dmp-A8 or should I wait ? That is the question. That’s what I keep hearing about Eversolo; lack of support | |
| New Eversolo DMP-A10 @exley_99 I tried using that Chinese tariff argument on my wife to justify a new round of equipment upgrades but she was unimpressed | |
| DSD coming to Qobuz streaming? I have a few DSD downloads but primarily I listen to DSD from SACD, outputting the DSD layer over HDMI from my Oppo 105 into the Bryston DAC3 HDMI input. Obviously it will depend on the recording but particularly with chamber ensembles on a label... | |
| Receiver Too Weak? The dialog in video can challenge even a very high end HT or 2 channel system. I improved it by upping the output put from the center channel in the settings of the AVR. Since center channels are mainly for speech and not much involved with musi... | |
| What's going on at Krell I wish them luck, but I will never buy Krell, new or used, after this event | |
| Reliability - what’s your experience been? Most equipment has been fine since I got into HEA. It’s the digital network stuff that can drive me crazy, the software hardware not playing nice together. | |
