Sonus Faber Nove II or III
Primetime74, I guess that’s your call on the 2 or 3 but I think the old “better to have it and not need, than need it and not have it” but it usually comes down to the budget which why I don’t have the 5s although I haven’t missed them.  
Andrew Singer Of "Sound by Singer" passed away yesterday
Never met him or went to his store, but the man was an institution in audio equipment retailing. May he rest in peace.  
Sonus Faber Nove II or III
Primetime74, I had a very similar situation when I bought my Nova III’s. The dealer only had the V’s on display and to be honest, I was already reaching beyond what I had budgeted. I was pretty certain that the II’s would probably leave me wonderi... 
Dickie Betts died earlier today at 80 years of age
I think I wore out my Eat A Peach cassette and replaced it with a half speed master.  Funny how we look back at our youth and realize what a great soundtrack we have to accompany it. Jbuhl, that line always stuck in my head as well, so even though... 
how to fix a CD player
I would try a can of compressed air, available at most Office Depot stores. Open the case and blow out the transport mechanism and try to clean the lens by blowing across not directly at as that can sometimes distort the lens cover. If that doesn’...

Dog pissed on speaker
I would be careful about trying too many liquid solutions as that will probably start to delaminate the cone. But in limited quantity the Ozium and Pooph would be a good place to start. Or possibly alcohol since it will dry and evaporate quickest....

Cardas hierarchy - older/newer - who has experience?
I understand your enthusiasm to grow more into the Cardas products. I got hooked years ago and have no plans or money to explore anything else. I have Golden Reference and Clear Reflection as ICs and Golden Cross speaker. I want to upgrade the spe...

Pandora now on BluOS
I just noticed that the other night. Although I am still sorting out the new BluOS 4.0, but I am slow learner on software.  
Infinity Kappa 8..amp?
Years ago I had Kappa 7’s and was using a Yamaha M85 amp and was satisfied for years. Then I bought a McIntosh MC352 that was a dealer demo who also had sold the Infinity line and Yamaha in a previous store. He told me that I would be satisfied an... 
I Cried Today
Blessings to Johns family and to you Bigkidz, you obviously feel loss and a hole that you can fill with the memories of the time that John and you shared. It’s refreshing to see a post of this nature and I thank you for providing an opportunity to... 
"I'm a believer"
IMHO and years of investing, listening etc as mentioned by the OP. I think that speakers are the final destination of delivery to our ears for every dollar spent to achieve that utopia we all seek. But I think also we must agree that the speaker i...
