    I spent 5 hours last night trying a new internet filter and experimenting similar to how I did with the 16 network switch shootout. I can't get over how I still am so impressed with my 2A3 amp.

    Vienna 2026

    For sure. The number of rooms the show was going to need was not a surprise to them. I'm honestly surprised how such a seasoned show with so many years under their belts blew it. Makes you wonder if maybe there was a change in those responsible for show operations.

    MBL Lives!

    I'm basing it on the thousands of high end owners I engage with through my channels, the high end dealers, companies and manufacturers I talk with on a near daily basis, and what is displayed and talked about at shows. I can count on one hand the number of high end owners who use DSP. On...
