    Klipsch Heresy IV Speaker Review

    I may have been taken too literally here. Everything is relative, depends on how far from flat they measure. Too far and they then are just garbage and could never be determined to be any where's near one of the "best speakers in the world".

    What was your best (and worst) audio purchase for the dollar?

    Agreed ! Funny how we've gone full circle in Hi Fi. From the earliest days forward we were always working to improve the accuracy of our gear which "back in the day" had it's problems at every stop in the road. We went so far as to eliminate anything in the path that could potentially cause...

    What new Vinyl did you get? please post a picture

    Love the album, pure Knopfler! The DR of the 2ch 24/192 mix on the BluRay is a DR10, sounds great. I've no way to measure the Atmos mix but in most cases they're even better, It is the jewel of the production. And no "skipping" ever. ;)...

    Marantz SR8015 Review (Home Theater AVR)

    Nice, I like a big case. I'm using a near 20yo CoolerMaster Cosmos case here. Lots of room to work and keep air moving around. I'm not into the rgb lights and such either and don't do any overclocking. Just recently gutted the old boy again and put together this guy for my Linux music server-web...

    Stereophile's Jim Austin Says Streaming Atmos Sucks

    That's not the way you made it sound, be straight with your posting ? Spotify is about the only streamer left that isn't doing lossless and offers you less for your money that any of the current majors. They've lied to the user base for years now, I listened to the BS for a long time but the...

    Stereophile's Jim Austin Says Streaming Atmos Sucks

    That's a good way of thinking about it. The same as the way the Atmos enabled soundbars play an amusing soundfield for the folks that have and enjoy them. They all help to support the format for those of us willing to invest in a full Atmos speaker based system. The final results are awesome and...

    New Magico M7 speakers

    Humm, you afraid of gettin laid too? They got this blue-ointment stuff to protect from the bugs now also. LOL A good analogy, these Magico speakers and a Ferrari auto, at their root aren't about being a "flashy 'look at me' thing". They are about performing a task at the extreme levels of...
