    What headphones would you like Amir to measure next?

    I have a set on order through a local Kef dealer (I’m local to Amir) but I’m hopeful he gets a set to test before mine show up. I’ve been shopping stuff in this category for an upcoming trip.

    Are feet / still points necessary (even a little)?

    I keep looking at the different feet options to replace the spikes and pads on my towers. Less interested in the alleged benefits and more interested in having an easier option to avoid gouging the new hardwood floor if something gets bumped or moved.

    Car Audio: Fixing a 1979 Porsche 924. What would an "audiophile" setup of roughly that era look like? I'm a noob.

    I've got a buddy locally that mod's all his old car radio's to either accept bluetooth or usb inputs. In my older Volkswagen I have a Nakamichi CD-45Z and it fits well with the 80/90's styling. They seem to have gotten expensive in the last couple years.

    This is beginning to sound like an AA meeting (Audiophile's Anonymous).

    Uncoloured phono cartridges

    I honestly think the younger generations are driving the biggest demand for vinyl. Our collection started with 186 albums that were left to us by my in-laws and a gift from a family friend (we are now up to 228 albums). Listening to albums is kind of like shooting old guns, while new guns can...

    Message to golden-eared audiophiles posting at ASR for the first time...

    I feel a link to this post should be sent to every new user as a welcome/greeting to ASR. Truth be told I found this gem after buying a bunch of gear. At first I was mad at myself for not doing more research on each individual component but after getting 250 hours of burn in my golden ears...

    New KEF LS50 collection with new Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT) coming.

    I noticed this the other day flirting around on the Kef site. You can now buy a single LS50 Meta for use as a center channel. https://www.shop.us.kef.com/speaker/stereo-speakers/center-channel-speakers/ls50-metac-center-channel.html

    Speaker Recommendations: <$1500 for 3.1 HT System

    I feel Klipsch is a love it or hate it sound. People will tell you to go listen and see what sounds best to you. Klipsch high tones can be tiring for some people. It's a little over budget but with the Kef Q series on sale you are close to getting a set of Q550 towers and a Q250 or Q650...

    what are your industrial design favorites?

    Had to look it up. I'm not going to buy an 8K ipod no matter how cool it is.

    Marantz Model 30

    That's too bad. Other than the Porthole it's a neat looking piece, I just wish they would have used higher quality materials.

    Vintage Hi-Fi Consoles

    I love the looks of these. They pop up for sale fairly often in the Seattle area so I have thought about getting one and updating all the components but I realize it would be a dead end project as my spare time is limited as it is.

    Spendor classic 3/1 or kef r3

    I really enjoyed the Kef R3's. Wife and I auditioned a pair but ended up buying the R5's as she didn't like the look of speaker stands.
