What is your experience with the NAD M33?
I’ve got one on my 2nd system which is the M33 going to Tekton Moab’s. Absolutely stunning!!!! I’d be surprised to hear a better system under 10k. Plus, it’s just so simple, the M33 is super powerful, clean, punchy, tight controlled deep base, suc... 
Anyone Get a Degritter for Xmas?
@bdo24: YES!!!!! they are incredible!! I only get the 4 mil which has a disadvantage of taking up more space than the thinner ones but I just feel safer with the extra protection (I also have 3 kids!!). How do you like the 4mil inner sleeves?  I’m... 
Anyone Get a Degritter for Xmas?
The Degritter might be the best 3K I’ve spent on my analog system. I pretty much only buy audiophile reissues, 98% of the time brand new still sealed….. they still have dust and plastic debris from the manufacturer. First thing I do, is take out t...

Wheels for floor standing speakers
Awesome guys!! Thanks. Yea, they’re actually mainly gonna be my wife’s speakers now. I just got a killer deal on a pair of Sopra 3s. Was gonna sell the Moab’s, which I really like btw, and was sad to see them go, but then my wife mentioned that sh... 
R to r dacs
I have the Terminator.  I compared that to a Mytek Brooklyn, PrimaLuna EVO 100 Tube DAC, and the D/A in a Lyndorf Integrated (Tdai 2170).  The Mytek had a lot of detail but cold sounding to me.  The Lyndorf was similar to the Mytek but it was a gr...

Integrated Tube Amp Demo
Check out Linear Tube Audio. Might not be as good of a match as the Raven or Primaluna with the B&Ws tho. The B&Ws are on the crispier side of the spectrum and the Primaluna or Raven would be a wonderful pairing. That being said if you are... 
Best "Bang for the Buck" you have owned?
“Honorable mention rubber bands, but not fair since they cost nothing.“Rubber Band.... Rubber Band.... you’re playing my tune out of tune!!! 
A warm DAC?
Larseand,    I have a PrimaLuna EVO 100 Tube DAC. It is definitely on the warmer side. PM me if you are interested in more info.  
What was your most disappointing album purchase?
Lulu - Metallica and Lou Reed..... so bad :( 
Best debut album
Wow, no one’s claimed GNR Appetite? I’ll take that one! 
SACD
Maybe someone else can verify, but I believe you need to make sure you are not using an external DAC with your sacd player. I believe if you do go digital out of your player into your DAC it won’t send the DSD information. I think a company or two... 
Looking for best streamer without DAC under $3500
Snafujg,   I’ve got a Terminator as well and like you am curious about the I2S input. Currently running a Roon Nucleus usb and sounds great to me, but curious about I2S. Anyone see an upside to I2S over USB? Also, are dedicated streamers better th...
