    A millennial's rant on classical music

    Agree, in particular for No. 4 and No. 7. But Kubelik is better on No.1. Another new contenders: Jurowski (2), Tenn stedt (9) and Dausgaard (10).

    Tidal vs Qobuz in 2024?

    I don't know Tidal, but as lover of Jazz and Classic I nearly never miss any new album in these categories. I'm a "collector" of several Jazz and Classic artist and composers, so when I really like an albums I can buy it as premium member as download at Qobuz with reduced price.

    Magnepan LRS Speaker Review

    I listened (and build) several types of speakers (horns, bass reflex and closed) systems and never understood why not everybody is using open baffle systems........ Great Linkwitz fan!

    Magnepan LRS Speaker Review

    James, thanks very much for your elaborated explanation. Had to read it twice to understand it in its details, but indeed my right speaker has one “button” and the left three. I don't know in my situation if this option for "smoother and deeper bass" is very effective because I use a 4-channel...

    Budget Directiva Project

    Based on the TS-parameters (in particular the large X-max (10mm) of the Purifi) the Tang Band W6-1721 Bass-midwoofer seems to be an option, Nice smooth frequency curve with natural roll-off in the lower region. But it is only 50Watt RMS. No experience with it. The price in the Netherlands is...

    Qobuz - How to report defective/deficient tracks?

    Being an active user for many years, I can state that a complaint/request to the customer service was always handled quick and accurate. When I had a failing album (nerely never) or failing track I was always offered an alternative album of free choice to compensate me. A fine example of how it...

    OK, what are you guys buying yourselves for Christmas?

    Very romantic and nostalgic, but after several years on and several versions off “tubes” (daily from 08:00 to about 23:00) I decided to use less energy consuming equipment. Maybe less nostalgic but same (or better) quality and better for my own wallet as for the global environment. I agree with...
