I think that may have been the first review I've seen by him so I don't know if he talks like that all the time. I personally didn't think he trashed the Mac, it has some legit oversights if you are a HT person. No OSD, are you serious, that is...

Sort of like Wilson using Dayton Plate Amps in their Subs?

If you have a 60 day return I don't see how you can lose with a listen. Out of what you have listed the Harbeth would be my choice.

Enough to have you shop Wal-Mart? LOL

A 10 year average has nothing to do with current realities, or in this case, the past 24 months. The past two years inflation has gone from 1.5% to 8%. The CPI average has risen nearly 13% in the past 2 years. Butter and Eggs have risen 51% and...

Has anyone for half a second stopped to think of things a different way with respect to the new S3? The reality is, the new S3 is FAR closer to an M3 than it’s predecessor. Diamond coated beryllium tweeter, far heavier speaker with higher grade...

Perfect, that's the way to do it. The great thing the headphones will sound the same on your ears at the show as they will at your home. Pay close attention to comfort, it doesn't matter how good a set will sound if you are uncomfortable with them...

Not sure why anyone with a Lumin would want mono. My guess is BS does that because of their capability to transmit to other speakers in their eco that are mono. So if your BS piece is playing through your main system it would be stereo but when...

Cables I’ll leave alone. But generally, everything is affected by inflation. Everything. The bulk dog food we buy was always $99. For years. It’s now $140. It went $120, $130, $140. Inflation is the biggest middle class tax. Look at the price...

This timely post came up in a thread on another forum I am following. Post-Gotta love inflation Reply-which is very often just price gouging.

The ongoing effects of runaway inflation are causing a distortion in our price perception. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Let me revise a little bit, "Can be"

Morality has nothing to do with politics, or does it in your case? Only you have brought up politics. Capitalism can be and is a good thing because it allows for other than state run businesses. It just isn't right when a CEO makes a 1000 times more...

That is not at all what I said. I was just pointing out that we have the same issue with all luxury items AND how different people feel about them. On another site, Vintage Majority usually tells anyone who asks not to buy new because vintage is...

Yeah now ask what watch everyone is wearing. Same deal, a $25 Timex tells the same time as a $20K Rolex, but some people have the need to say "I have a Rolex" It is no different with every other luxury item out there including audio.

No. In that case economics, competition, should resolve the issue. Who in their right mind would pay $3k more for something than they had to? In Magico's case it wouldn't be apples to apples, you'd have to decide if their prodict is worth the...

Kenichi Tsunoda Big Band Patricia Barber's last two albums are 352k

I may be the minority but I would for sure. It's like the $20.00 beer at the ball park, either you buy it or not. Someone might call the pricing a rep off but I don't consider it a rip off as long as there is still a choice to buy it or not.

You're Hellcome by Samurai Pizza Cats

One only has to look at the facts of the current UAW strike to see your stroking of corporations is a load of BS. There are plenty of other examples of upper management greed other than just the auto companies. Sorry I'll be saving my Kleenex.

I've not heard of Quoboz, most compare Tidal to Qobuz.

Kenichi Tsunoda Big Band, all albums stream in high res if your service provides, very good recordings to begin with.

Oh no, I thought we were talking about a package of broken IsoAcoustic footers

The best I've heard are Dan Clark headphones. I also like Audeze and Hifiman both have models in various price points. Unless something in your system has a headphone amp it is best to get one. You might also look on a site called headfi (I...

It sure is pretty! LOL. We haven’t connected it. We’ve been busy with demos. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Here's some current and background info On a Mythical Quest of Ascension, Lenbrook Acquires MQA - Strata-gee.com

Come on man you can't just put on the brakes when your raft hits the rapids, you have to ride them out. Apparently some would buy the package of broken Oreas opposed to the perfect ones. LOL

There are those here who support MQA, visit the "What Are You Listening TO" thread. Most who are against it are parrots and never heard it in any comparison or meaningful way. It's like why do people hate Nickelback, it's the cool thing. There is...

Oh yeah. It’s not as good as M3, but it’s amazing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I understand if Klipsch is what you must have but if other options considered you might take a look at Volti. Really good sounding horn speakers IMO.

One article said something about Linbrook working on a system to best Blue Tooth and the MQA codec could help with that. It will be interesting to see how Tidal reacts or if they can strike a deal so that Tidal keeps offering MQA. If not, would...

The New Magico S3 with Pass INT-250 and MSB Discrete DAC - YouTube Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Our pair has now been playing for nearly 2 weeks. 24/7. They are so so so enjoyable. A real slightly warm, very organic, natural sound. As good as the previous iterations of the S3 were, these are clearly superior in every conceivable...

Just watched the video. That was a "Gentle Slide" compared to what usually goes on.

I have a similar problem with just about every Mail Carrier I get. Think about it, how much more simple can this be. Drive to next box Open box Put Mail in box Close Box Put Flag down if mail was taken from box They can only perform the...

Thank you! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I was offered a white background and I didn’t want it. I like the black background. What’s funny is that the online/print mags are asking for “glam shots” to accompany the reviews. Guess they don’t like my poor iPhone photos. Sent...

Nice. Welcome to Audio Shark

Nice, congrats

Looking good!! Congrats!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I don't think a label would provoke common sense. I shipped an amp to Hawaii a few months ago, the outer box was tattered due to past Fedex trip. I knew when I lifted it the box gave like if it was lifted a few more times the insides may land on...

I want Capitalism with a Conscience and Morality. Less Greed.

On one hand a trade in program is nice, keeps you from having to sell your item but keep in mind on the other hand there has to be a good amount of profit made initially and after to make a trade worth while. An after thought, even if the A3 is...
