    Streaming vs CD’S

    Ripped my entire CD collection more than 15 years ago. Then started buying hi rez downloads, eventualy went the Roon/HQP. Today I only direct stream Spotify and Qobuz. I don’t even bother with Roon.

    magnum dynalab ST-2 FM Antenna

    Which amplifier tap... 4 ohm or 8 ohm

    AV Receiver Recommendaions forNew TV watching Room
