How to get Metadata in Exact Audio Copy EAC ripping I use EAC on Windows 10 without issue. Also, I use Foobar 2000. If you fill out the Metadata info before burning, you can finish it up within Foobar. Requires a bit of work, but works well. | |

Musical Fidelity M5Si vs Rotel 1592 Integrated I've never heard these side by side, but in my mind, there is no comparison...MF has a better sound stage, smooth, yet detailed, yet not fatiguing. Plus just lets music flow better... I'm not saying that the Rotel is a poor product, Just not quit... | |

Help Choosing Speakers @hifiron I have heard the Signature SE with 600 watts of Coda on them. Even with that, they are velvety smooth, but still detailed.... You have a ton of flexibility with those.. | |
Help Choosing Speakers I personally would prefer at least a bare minimum of 10 or 15 watts on the Signature SE's, but if they are affordable, this is a well thought out, well designed speaker. Nothing wrong with the Salk's either, but according to their charts, they... | |

I have sat in front of a few of the Tekton speakers... to be fair, I haven't sat in front of the Lore Reference, but I have listened to the Lore and Lore S...

Why warm amps sound better. I'm one of those odd weirdos that contend that my amp & preamp continued to improve for a month after I turned them on. Now I just leave them on. | |
