    Is Class D actually killing the "soul" of high-end audio?

    No worries. I can't treat my room and I use no EQ or Tone Controls. I listen to the music as it was recorded and enjoy it. Some recordings are bright, some are bass heavy, some are just right. What I like about what I have is it plays back whatever and however the recording was made.

    Why not just buy the gear that you like the sound of and forget about adding more to the path plus more cables to twiddle with settings constantly?

    Getting tired of YouTube Music Premium price hikes any good alternatives for background audio?

    I use Pandora on my OPPO 93s. It is free and no commercials. I suppose the commercial issues are due to whatever licensing the product pays for as I do get lots of ads on my PC or phone with same account. I also have a terabyte of music I can stream where needed. That said, for background music...

    System Update

    I am being forced to take an AI course for work right now and am learning that you have to be very specific and precise with the question you ask along with the tone, format and other possible criteria in order to get a more valid answer. The real issue is who is training the AI and what are...

    Cheap desktop amp

    I got a little Fosi V3 yesterday. Cute little amp. Weighs more than I expected as the Lepai it replaces weighed next to nothing. I don't have a lot of time to play with it this weekend but a preliminary quick listen is promising. I like the volume control a lot. Sound is way cleaner and clearer...

    Just a little no nonsense V3 to drive my Dynaudio 42s in my office PC setup with a little Firestone Foobar DAC.

    My Fosi is being delivered today. I will have an opinion by next week but sure it will out perform the Lepai

    Switched to Class D or get left behind?

    I like many of the Finger Lake wines. Easy to drink and mostly economical. There are a few in the $30 range that are excellent as well as what Bully Hill puts out for $11 per bottle. As per Class D, I am not switching but did just order a little chip amp to drive my Dynaudio 42s in my office...

    Santana

    I have not seen Santana since the late 70s at the Tower in Philly. Damit I dropped a vile of Hash Oil up in the balcony and never found it :) His tone and emotion surpasses most other guitarist.
