tube amp and spotify

You really should consider ditching Spotify for Tidal. There is no comparison sound quality wise. Tidal's catalog is smaller but still pretty vast, it's well worth the $20 a month they charge.

Rsimms I'm a bit baffled as well I can't imagine the sound levels between Spotify and Tidal being so widely different as to cause that problem. What speakers are you using and what are you driving them with? And if the room correction limits sound level to that degree it sounds like something is wrong. I agree with Cleeds more info is needed.

Gary sounds like a nice setup, also running Tidal through Sonos, sounds great through my Yamamoto DAC and tube seperates. I can't comment on Wilson-Benesch specifically but I am running Focal or I should say JMlabs, the Original Micro-Utopias. If you like the Focal sound perhaps check out some of their higher end monitors? Though the Wilson-Benesch stuff is super cool looking I must admit and probably sounds great. Sounds like you're in for a lot of fun upgrading, but just remember, you can always stop! ;)
