| Does a streamer do anything to the data that Tidal provides? @willemj thanks for the reply. I'm not sure if the Chromecast Audio is for me as I wish I had the control of the Chromecast Audio using TuneIn and a dedicated ethernet and power plug like the Apple Airport Express. Does this type of box exist fo... | |
| Does a streamer do anything to the data that Tidal provides? On a similar note, what is the best option for internet radio these days? I don't want to stream from my computer, and listed to my local radio stations a good deal (most of them have internet radio presence). I might want to stream some music f... | |
| Who makes budget speaker cables which are truly “good” or “exceptional” in quality? I use Mogami 2921 in a biwire config for speaker wire for both my systems with quality copper banana BFAs. I also use Mogami 2549 with KLEI copper harmony RCAs or Furutech 126g RCAs. Take5 Audio or Douglas Connection built my RCAs and I got the 29... | |

The 6.5t were on rigid yet minimalist linn / sound organization stands and are for sale in the Seattle area as shipping with stands are spendy. I remember many a great nights with those 6.5t mo... | |
| What is the future for Proac Speakers ? @nolaholic, you must give those speakers some room to breath. ProAcs like to be away from the front and side walls, at least 12" if not double or triple that. I wish I could move my ProAc studio 148s out form the front wall more than I have them... | |
| $20K to spend on speakers…. . wait! There’s a catch! Or you could possibly call Sound Organization in Texas. They are the ProAc importers for the US. They might be able to setup a listening session for you or an extended return window? | |
| $20K to spend on speakers…. . wait! There’s a catch! ProAcs are known for their synergy with tubes, plus look and sound amazing. There is a beautiful rosewood D48 with the ribbon tweeters brand new on ebay for $12000 with free shipping and 14 day return policy. Unfortunately, ProAcs take a long ti... | |

All reduced dynamics in my system except for the following:Emotiva CMX-2 DC Blocker and Line FilterAll of my sources and preamps are down stream of th... | |
