| Is anyone here still into live concerts these days? Most recent concert was Toto at the Uptown Theatre in Kansas City. They were awesome. A few years back, I went to a concert with two of my boys. I wasn't real familiar with either band, but they kicked ass. Shinedown and Papa Roach. A few yea... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? @cincyjim Some time around 1979, I went to a KISS concert in Omaha. Back when they were huge. I had never heard of the guy that played before KISS. John Cougar Mellencamp.... I thought, "damn, he's pretty good". Currently listening to Decades... | |

| Audience FrontRow USB - I’m puzzled I haven't done much experimentation with USB cables. I used an Analysis Plus cable with my Node streamer. I bought an Inakustik cable with my Innuos streamer and never tried anything else. | |
| Good choice for 20' XLR cable? What are you using between your amp and preamp now? If you currently have a an optimal cable for your system, is it possible that using a lower quality cable due to the length will negate the benefit of moving your rack? I think I'd want to try ... | |
| Audience FrontRow USB - I’m puzzled That's awesome. Glad it worked out for you. | |

| Package Has Disappeared in USPS System The USPS can be awful. I had a firearm spend 3 to 4 weeks in their system. It was not something that I could replace for the price that I paid. If given the option, I'll use UPS or FedEx and they are far from perfect. It sounds like your selle... | |
| Have you ever bought something you've never heard of? @oddiofyl I did some research on the cable, but only found a few mentions of it on this forum (they were positive). I liked the manufacturer's description of the cable which was based more on physics that geometries or silver composition, etc. I... | |
| Have you ever bought something you've never heard of? This cable is really excellent. Has me listening to cds again. | |
| Have you ever bought something you've never heard of? @ghdprentice I do the same thing. Research a lot, but ultimately go with my gut. I’m only stupid with smaller purchases like cables. I did do some research on the cable. Checked the manufacturer's website and I found their design philosophy inter... | |
| Which subwoofer should I get? I use two REL S/510 for two channel. My mains are rated fairly flat down to 28hz, but the subs still produce a notably fuller sound. They're punchy, not boomy. A few days ago, I moved my gear to a new rack. When I turned it on to test everything,... | |
| Location of compoments. My new rack is 32 inches tall and 65 inches wide (the top is about a foot below my tweeter) and the front of the cabinet is about 18 inch behind the front baffle of my speakers. My speakers are fairly far apart and around 2 foot away from the rack... | |
| Do Audio Hobbyists Commonly Fail to Fully Utilize Their Systems? I've had decent gear for a while, but there were always albums that didn't sound great. I would blame it on bad recordings. This past year, I bought a new preamp, dac, and several cables. A lot of the albums that I thought were poor recordings re... | |
| What were your favorite gear additions in 2024? Linear Tube Audio MicroZOTL level 2 preamp and Gustard X30 dac. Also a clock, ddc, and various cables, but the preamp and dac were the biggest improvements. |
