| Speaker Help Please: Floorstanders around $1Ok to fill very large space with no sub Try the Goldenear Triton reference speakers. They are very good and play loud enough to fill up a large room. They include built in subs that can play way down. | |
| Looking for a audio club near Naples, Florida Thanks. I’ll check them out when I’m at the show. | |
| DAC experiences? I upgraded from the PS Audio mk1 Directstream to a Mola Mola Tambaqui last year. I listened to both with an audiophile friend and found the PS Audio compared favorably with the Tambaqui. It was still a worthy upgrade but I was impressed as to how... | |
| Sound quality differences in streamers I heard a significant increase in clarity when I switched from a Roon Nucleus to a Grimm MU-1. I thought the upgrade was well worth it. So yes, there is a difference. | |
| DAC recommendation for DSD input A used PS Audio DAC is a bargain. I found it to be musical. When I upgraded to a Tambaqui I A/B’d them with a friend and he found them very close in sound as I had. Good luck with your upgrade. | |
| Top 10 Live Albums Derek and the Dominoes Live. Amazing musicianship from all but Clapton really shines. | |
| What were your favorite gear additions in 2024? Grimm MU-1 streamer is a great piece of gear. Streaming quality really improved over my Roon Nucles. | |

| Battle of the Older DAC The PS Audio Direct Stream MK II Dac can be had used for under $2K and it is very good. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650036704-ps-audio-directstream-dac-wbridge-ii-for-sale-outstanding-condition/ I replaced it with a Mola Mola Tambiqui... | |
| Roon Endpoint Streamers - Direct Comparisons between Current Offerings? I too will sing the praises of the Grimm MU1. It is a Roon core and a streamer and is superb as both. It replaced my Roon Nucleus plus and was a tremendous upgrade. | |
| Nuclues plus bricked Newest update locked up my nucleus +. Unplugged it for 30 minutes and it then finished the update. All fine now. Only trouble I’ve had with it. | |

| Owning Up To It Eric Clapton passing out 20 minutes into the show at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City Nj. 7/7/74. He couldn’t play. Show ended in a riot with people peppering the stage with anything they could throw. | |
| Audiophile Speakers for Rock, HipHop and Techno Give the Goldenear speakers a listen. I have them and really like how they rock as well as how they sound on more gentle music. | |
| Best unplugged live @vthokie83 great list! I need to check some of those out I haven’t heard. |
