    Fallout on Amazon

    So far - just a wee bit better than - "meh".

    Electrostatic speakers?

    I owned a pair of Magnepan 2.5r... For all that they did right, or at least impressively... that was not a speaker to listen to outside the sweetspot. Oh... and because they are the size of two screen doors - it was a rather slender sweetspot. Not electrostatics per-se, but to echo the above...

    3-Body Problem

    Did not enjoy it. Didn't connect with any characters. Didn't get hooked by the story. Nice production, but ultimatly found it boring.

    What interesting and tasty cheese are you enjoying today? This is like the spirits thread but for cheese.

    Such a neat sweet n nutty flavour. One of my fave cheeses for sure!

    Integrated streaming amplifier question.

    I have the DRA-800H. For the $$ I'd rather have the WiiM Amp and then I'd buy myself some second hand speakers. The WiiM will allow you to equalize your room/speakers even if that's further down the line of your journey. Buying 2nd hand speakers is a great way to save money, as speakers...

    Help me fix my broken Revel C12!

    I am very curious about this. Could a capacitor in the highpass be failing?

    Open baffle speaker pitfalls

    This is a good point. There's a nostalgia at play here... Like the first time you expereince a thing - it's just so notable being novel, but in reality maybe hardly worthy of admiration. Still - I think we both agree that the key word here (that we both used) is "fun", and how can fun not also...

    Electronica/dance/techno/et cetera.

    Not sure if we paid homage to the early days in this thread... but... all this lovely electronic music owes its popularity to some groundbreakers. I wont go into Kraftwerk, Moroder and the early 70s, but will just touch on my own roots of the synth addiction (...funny enough, at this time I...

    Artists You Have Discovered Lately

    One more - I can't quite put my finger on it - but this band has got something special going on. Brilliant debut record. The Last Dinner Party. and my personal favourite

    I'm a sucker for pop with a lil spice in it... and Royal and the Serpent fits that nicely

    Artists You Have Discovered Lately

    Until I heard this track all I knew of Eagles of Death Metal was the tragedy at the Bataclan... but this cover... OMG... this geezer just wants to throw his hands up in the air. I hope MJB doesn't mind it, cause I think it's yummy.

    brilliant track - just floating in the clouds

    Electronica/dance/techno/et cetera.

    Ahhh Joe Goddard is a master of killer beats. Love him in Hot Chip, but his solo and collab stuff is right brilliant. Blew my car speakers with this... I'm sorry, but one can't listen to this at anything less then chest pumping volumes... :34 just waiting for Tom Cruise to fly in and blow some...

    Google Chromecast Audio vs Wiim pro plus

    I'll add - that when these were selling for ~25CAD I bought 4, and now have whole home audio. If one sends optical from GCA to a DAC - then I think we're getting decent signal to our amps. As far as my ears can tell - sounds perfectly fine.

    Google Chromecast Audio vs Wiim pro plus

    If you need the EQ - then yes. Otherwise not really.

    Revel F35 Speaker Review

    Only have experience with the F35s and find them delightful. PIR for F36 looks better on paper, though I prefer the tilt of the F35. So...??? I am not helping - am I?

    Tower with good bass extension vs. stand-mount with a sub?

    Sub+standmounts are probably better with all the caveats mentioned above. Wether Kef or Revels will depend if you're in NA or Europe. As for sub - not sure you need to go that upscale as KC62, and again the brand will depend on your location as above. As for sub placement and configuration - it...

    Exceptional values in over-the-ear headphones?

    I dunno, but for me https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/hifiman-he400se-review-headphone.28771/ and https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/akg-k371-review-closed-back-headphone.19657/ represent the best bargains. And as you already have the k371... you...
