| Tri - Wire with Bi - Wire: Which to Bridge? Is there a best way to connect a three way with three binding post pairs using two jumper pairs? | |
| Full-Range to Monitors I had to downsize to accommodate a smaller, shared living space. I considered larger “monitors”, but chose a small, sealed enclosure 3 way floorstander which occupies no more real estate than stand mounts. 67 pound weight per is manageable if the ... | |
| Moving from Analog to Digital I’ve recently used a Bluesound Node 2 as a Roon endpoint to play music ripped to a Qnap NAS via the Node 2 S/PDIF output into a DAC/integrated amp and found it on a par with very satisfying CDP and CDT/DAC sources I’d used in years past. I could e... | |
| Your thoughts about ATC loudspeakers Modest volume listening is always compromised at the frequency extremes and is not everyone’s cup of tea. The ATC SCM 40 mk2 do it as well, or better, than any loudspeakers I’ve owned. | |
| Your thoughts about ATC loudspeakers Based upon more listening to my recently acquired passive SCM40 mk2s I remain very impressed by how they portray music at modest volume. The clarity is outstanding, from acoustic/electric bass at the bottom though cymbals at the top. I mainly list... | |

| Please Read and express your feelings and opinions.... Too many folks have forgotten, never learned or flat out disregard the wisdom of The Firesign Theater. Take your pick:”Everything You Know Is Wrong “”I Think We’re All Bozos On This Bus” | |
| Just Got My Oppo 205! The 205 is a $1299 multi-featured, “Swiss army knife”, universal disc player. I bought one last week with expectations based upon the aforementioned facts. 2 channel audio is not competitive with the $10k CDT/DAC combo I downsized from - not hardl... | |
| Audio valuations It seems to have been a buyers market here for some time now. I’ve sold a number of things in past year or so and received a reality check. As with all commerce, something being sold is worth only what another will pay. | |
| Your thoughts about ATC loudspeakers I just added the SCM40 v2 to my system. I find them very enjoyable at low to modest volume, sounding lively and with superbly articulate bass. They really immerse me into the music. My Naim Uniti (80w@8, 155w@4) drives them effortlessly at my pref... | |
| Isoacoustics GAIA question I just added Aperta 200s under my loudspeakers to good effect. | |
| Oppo Ceasing production echolane:Regarding the 205 and connectivity:I will soon move into a rental and my listening/TV/HT room will belong to someone else. My 2ch music system has, until now, been separate from TV/HT surround sound system in the same room. My 2ch system ... | |
| Oppo Ceasing production bobag:Interesting that you mentioned your 105 solving connectivity issues in your system. That benefit was a strong incentive for me to buy a 205. Remains to be determined if my system connection plan with the 205 pans out but, on paper at least, ... | |
| Oppo Gone - Now What? Wow, inventory evaporated quickly! I ordered a 205 from the Oppo website just yesterday. Got tracking info an hour ago. Couldn’t pass up its versatility at $1299 and hold on to one last piece of source gear that plays all types of shiny discs at h... | |
| Bluesound Node 2 - Next level up +2 for sending Node 2 S/PDIF output into a good quality DAC. I’m listening to a Tunein radio stream right now and am very impressed. |
