List your breakthrough products that you’ve discovered on this audiophile Journey.
My feeling is in line with Tunehead.  Streaming and a good streamer transformed my appreciation for music and my system.  I get so much more out of my dac with my lumin sbooster setup with Roon than I ever could with some really good or great tran...

Global historical records from NOAA are the basis for the charts and models indicated in that article in the op.  https://youtu.be/mGe9JO58Uc8Fact or hack? There are legitimate concerns here and need to be either accepted or dismissed based on fac... 
Streamer + DAC or streamer/dac all in one?
The lumin d1 outperformed benchmark and chord dacs in my setup.  Don’t discount having a one box solution.  Dac tech has slowed down while streamer tech seems to be seeing the most room for improvement.  That lumin humiliated the blue sound I was ... 
Pass Labs and Fuses
To some people it is more important to think they are right than to experience and learn something.  Know it alls don’t accept things they may not understand.   
And yet another of our heroes passes into the night, RIP Ginger Baker!
Hanging out with Moon, Bonham and all the rest. No having to deal with trying  to cancel your cable TV subscription or traffic.Doubt that.  Based on that wapo article, he thought those guys were hacks and was insulted they would be mentioned in th...

(Brutally) Honest Audio Reviews
Better than much of the fluff out there from certain sites and “reviewers”.  And definitely more useful than most of the posts found here.
