My new ride. Great for the mountains and 0-60 in 3.1 seconds.

This question is from a member on another audio forum: Within the setup of the Lumin streamers is there an option to output mono? Both Bluesound and Wiim have the option for stereo or mono. Thanks.

I am building a 24 x 36 combination office, 2-channel listening space combined with a home theater. Does anyone have any recommendations in the Denver area for an audio-video design consultant who can assist? I pretty much have most of the components I will need so this would likely be on an...

So my wife and I got tired of Chicago and moved to a home in the mountains outside of Denver (Golden). Any members reside out this way? Would love to get in touch and get to know some fellow Coloradans! My first project is to build a music room/office and wondering if anyone local had some...

Well I’ve been a member here for seven years and I never figured out how to change my signature, add my equipment in my signature etc. Can someone give me a quick primer? Thank you.

Would love to hear your thoughts/reviews. I’m thinking about a bi-wire pair with Sonus Faber. Thanks.

My college roommate is buying his first speakers in 25 years. He is deciding between 803 D4 or 804 with a sub. Recommendations?

I’m in Denver this week moving one of my kids out here who just graduated college. Any good audio stores to visit while I’m here?

Have a relaxing day! Do some grilling! Rearrange your rack (audio, that is)! Listen to some soulful tunes.

I am buying a pair of tube mono blocks and need to get them from NY to IL safely. Any recommendations? Thanks.

I’ve never heard one and am intrigued. I have Quad 57’s and Reference 3a Reflectors at 92 db sensitivity and impedance of 8 ohms with, I’m told, a fairly flat impedance curve. How good do these amps sound? I have heard listening to an OTL on the right speakers for the first time is a captivating...
