eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough.
Wow. It seems some of you guys have really been shafted.Please note- though I’ve had a lot of stress, extra work and inconvenience, thus far I haven’t actually lost anything other than my time and some hair. The point of my post was to draw people... 
eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough.
@dill It happened the way I described, but not in the way you've interpreted what I've written, hence the disconnect between what happened and what you think happened.Yes, I've been selling on eBay plenty long enough with a 100% record. Yes, I kno... 
Ideas for amp to run woofers on a bi-amp system.

Manley Steelhead Owners-- Line Stage Input Good Enough to Use as Preamp?
It works great as a linestage in my setup.  
Intimate, warm and holographic alternative
@tweak1 I suppose your comment explains why there are a gazillion different speaker manufacturers, models, etc and not just one or two.I enjoyed a year or so with VSMs, now, having moved everything into a much smaller room, I’m really enjoying the... 
Intimate, warm and holographic alternative
Merlins. Set up properly with a nice amp(s).You’re likely to tire quickly of speakers designed to be ‘warm’. Find speakers designed to be neutral and add your coloration preferences via electronics and to a lesser extent, cables.Most bookshelf spe... 
EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!!
Quick summary anyone? For those of us hard of consciousness.. Mr. White is who, exactly? Is his brother called Barry? 
Has Digital Audio Tech Plateaued - Is It Safe To Come Out Now?
@ddafoe Thanks for the recommendation. It’s doubly useful coming from someone with experience of the 380D. I’ll check out the Mojo Audio.cheersRooze 
how to Implement a High Pass Filter in my setup
Consider a miniDSP. I’m a recent convert and it’s very configurable, even for old people who’re hard of thinking.Rooze 
Preamp connection to multiple powered subwoofers
Just pick up a cheap miniDSP 2x4 or 2x4 HD.If you’ve only one pre-out, just use a simple solid rca splitter. Run to one of the inputs on the miniDSP, then run 4 outputs, one to each sub. Bypass the XO on all 4 subs, if you don’t have a bypass then... 
Are "vintage" DAC's worthwhile, or is this a tech that does not age well
Old DACs... new DACs... sound the same?All this is very disturbing.  
Has Digital Audio Tech Plateaued - Is It Safe To Come Out Now?
wow...so much great info, I appreciate all the responses.@cal3713 I've re-read my OP and see your point about it being a little confusing. Let me put it a different way - I'm not looking for specific equipment recommendations, I can research what'... 
Has Digital Audio Tech Plateaued - Is It Safe To Come Out Now?
@lalitk Thanks. I'm living with a Sim Audio Moon 380D. It does not have the optional streaming interface and due to limitations with my internet connection, streaming isn't something I'm all that interested in. Certainly, a worthwhile step up in D... 
Has Digital Audio Tech Plateaued - Is It Safe To Come Out Now?
@lalitk I do play CD’s and use an Aurender N100H on rare occasions but neither give me the same degree of satisfaction as listening to vinyl.But.... I would like at least to close the gap and get more use of all my digital media. I’m just wonderin... 
Has Digital Audio Tech Plateaued - Is It Safe To Come Out Now?
I guess there will always be new boxes to buy, but will they actually sound any better or are we done now! I mean, it could be argued that the Cambridge Audio CD2 I owned in the 80’s hasn’t really changed much (in sound) from the Cambridge Audio 8...
