| REF reference model 3 $700 to $1000 is a reasonable price for the Reference Model 3. They are a fantastic speaker, one of the best made by KEF with the old school KEF sound. They never had a lot of press, so people are not aware of how good they are. I currently have t... | |
| Nicotine reidue on drivers I forgot to add, vapor deposited Beryllium would never adhere to polypropylene without a surface treatment. Typically we would use an oxygen plasma treatment of the polypropylene before vapor deposition of a metal such as Beryllium. | |

| Giving up on Itunes! Alternatives? I want to run my hardrive with a dedicated tablet. I have been using iTunes for over 10 years and never had anything get scrambled, changed, or modified unless I did it myself. I have hundreds of CDs that I ripped 10 years ago and they are still the same as the day I ripped them. I never have to d... | |

My album structure is not scrambled but is in alphabetical order under the artist name. If you have an album with multiple artists, than the... | |

| Network Transport vs. CD Transport @mahler123I don't understand why you have crashes. You probably need to do a clean install of the OS and associated applications. I initially used an iMac and a MacBook Pro to wirelessly stream my lossless ripped CDs for over 7 years and switched ... | |

| Emotiva not so good The only Emotiva gear that I have are their DACs. I currently have 3 Emotiva XDA-2 DACs in 3 different systems. I have been using them for over 5 years. They have a rich, detailed, engaging presentation in my systems. Over the years, I have tried ... | |
| Dried up Ferrofluid? As the ferrofluid dries up, the speaker’s high end becomes dull and loses some sparkle. It may not be evident unless one compares it to a speaker with fresh ferrofluid. Typically ferrofluid lasts about 15 to 20 years with normal use. KEF recommend... | |
