Speaker upgrade?
If you can find the original Paradigm Studio Monitors they are really impressive especially in the bass. The old Stereophile review is BS in my opinion, the low bass and mid bass is Strong but not slow and it’s impactful. Mids and highs are very n... 
All New Pure Audio ONE Integrated Amp Reviewed!
@highend666 ,   if you are truly not associated with the company at all or any of the other posts about new equipment you start and rave about with the !!!!! And the WOWz. What’s the deal?   
Can I assemble a decent system out of these components
Very descent system.   
Which sounds better 2 way or 3 way speaker design
2 ways with well integrated sub can sound really good. They don’t go that loud without being crossed over if bass heavy music.   
Legacy Focus SE or PS Audio FR20

Legacy Focus SE or PS Audio FR20
Haha 🤣. As soon as I saw the title I made a hundred dollar bet with myself audiotroy would be the first responder! I won a hundred bucks from myself!! Yay.   
Amp search
Parasound A21. Used probably $12-1400. Some watts class a, not sure how many but is definitely on the warm non mechanical side and one of the more tubey sounding ss amps I’ve heard. Only one I can think of with variable gain except the old Denon a... 
Downsizing from tower to bookshelf
I heard the bigger studio electrics at a local enthusiasts house when I was buying some speaker cables off him. They seemed to be very musical and do everything well. The owner and maker of Studio Electric lives 30 minutes from me. I’ve been meani... 
Streaming from a TV
IFI I-Purifier. Use that exact same setup on my system with toslink coming out of tv. Cheap and makes a huge difference. All you need for a situation like that IMO.    you use a Toslink to mini toslink and that end plugs into the side of the I Pu... 
Large speakers plus EQ, what have you done?
Current speakers Paradigm 120H. Powered woofers with room correction from 300h down. Without running the room correction still sound good but with it engaged much tighter more articulate bass. Non corrected sounds much more bloated boomy and loose...

55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey
10ft away a 55 inch will look too small IMO. I have a 65 OLED about 8 ft away and wish it was bigger. Best Buy for the next couple days has a Samsung 77 inch OLED for 1599 or 1699. It’s over half off. IMHO OLED is the only way to go.   
B&W 705s3 vs Kef Meta R3
I had KEF 201/2 for a couple years. Nothing muddy about them. Almost too detailed if that’s a thing. They were pretty awesome although fairly ruthless with less than stellar recordings.   
Active Wireless speaker, Dynaudio, Buchardt or Sonus Faber?
I had some Dynaudio Focus 60xd speakers for a while. Honestly was underwhelmed by them. They didn’t sound bad just kinda bland and ordinary. Never heard the others.   
Suggestions for replacement speakers
For 2k and for rock and blues I would get used Tekton Double Impacts.
