| Review: Douk Audio S5 speakers, Geoyeao EVP-102 Blu-ray Player, Ultralink Ultima MkII IC I am not an audiophile. just an old timer who likes 60's music and streaming. Using with an Onkyo tx-nr6050 receiver in a small living room/ kitchen. Paired with Yamaha NS-6490's, Sony SS-C55's, and a Elack subwoofer. They are my front speaker... |
