| Roon changes the music I always enjoy learning what different people hear. I used Roon on a dedicated headless NUC, no DSP, no auto-leveling, and no other do-dads for close to 10 years. I played it through a pretty good stereo system and really enjoyed the sound…a lot... | |
| Estate planning question My wife knows exactly what my stereo costs and intends to keep it if I croak first. Our death instructions when we are both gone is for the executor of our estate keep the stereo for their own use or sell it and keep the money. The executor knows ... | |
| What say you: Is this fair, or AITA? There is righteousness on both sides. You and the seller got together through AG even after you ended the ad. BUT, it was through their site. A search on Hifishark will give old AG listings. The big factor for me thinking AG is due a fee is you ... | |

I currently have a Simaudio 700i powering a pair of Rockport Aviors (all the original versions) and find it to be a lovely, musical, and powerful combination. If I ever change elect... | |
| Which speakers did you find bright, fatiguing or just disappointing in some way? I have to get in the not liking Wilson speakers. I have heard a variety of them, including the $300k big daddies in their current lineup, in several rooms with which I am very familiar. I agree they are accurate, dynamic, and all of the other goo... | |
| ~$15K floorstanders: opinions sought I have a visually and sonically beautiful set of Rockport Technologies Atria 1 I will be selling in a couple of weeks well within your price range, with enough left over for a worthy set of speaker cables. I am moving up the Rockport line. 😁 |
