| Will China become the poor man’s dealer for high end audio? @mahgister And china technological advances begin to eclipse US in many fields ... China makes many claims, but there isn’t anything claimed by the CCP that can be believed. | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @emergingsoul Your idea counters what I value. I value posting systems in reference to questions and advice given. I don’t want there to be an elite and I don’t care to see your stable of cars. I posted this question because I had thought tha... | |
| Will China become the poor man’s dealer for high end audio? One day made in China may have the same cachet as made in Japan. Possible, but right now China under Xi is turning to Mao. Japanese and Chinese work and business ethics are quite different. Very different cultures. Currently, China assembles th... | |
| "Can You Lift Yours?" I wish that my home theater, two channel listening room, and gym we’re all on the first floor. All of it was installed by others and none of it can I lift. I use the gym daily and I am strong for my age. It is the “for my age” part that is importa... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @mc1969 It is archaic, but posting your system does not require the webmaster’s help and if you need help, see first page of this thread. | |
| Will China become the poor man’s dealer for high end audio? Just for the record, high end audio has always consisted of high priced items. Also, China’s place in this world is changing. Labor cost in China have soared. The business environment has soured. It is difficult to predict the future, but the h... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? I don't want to be robbed. Now the bad guys know that you are a good target. Best be safe and delete your post. | |
| Listen to a CD or LP in showroom? @grislybutter His questions are valid, but the tone was harsh. | |
| Listen to a CD or LP in showroom? @trackmoe I auditioned speakers with dealers that carried my integrated amp. The dealer wanted to make their speakers sound as good as possible and I controlled amplification. I wanted to hear the best possible through the speakers, so I was qui... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? I think that we can all agree that this forum is a mess from a UI standpoint, but we are getting what we pay for. | |
| Upgrade Esoteric K03XD to K01XD? I don’t know what you use for a streamer, or what the rest of your equipment is, but might a bit perfect rip and the correct streamer compete with the K03XD? Not answering your question, but such a streamer also will improve what you do the most…s... | |
| Digital music questions Your system seems to be of a quality that would benefit by adding a quality streamer/server and your built in DAC is of fairly high quality. I consolidated the families music services and we all use Quboz. The only advantage that I see in using Ap... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @flyfish77 I am an avid fly fisher, and lots of people that enjoy that sport are crazy about expensive gear. In my opinion, audiophiles are far crazier about gear than people who fly fish. Fly Fishing on-line forums, however, do not have specia... | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? @buckhorn_cortez Somehow, you think that by knowing my current equipment suite tells you the sum of my experience? What a joke. I can’t imagine why someone would be vested in understanding the”sum of my (your) experience”. | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? For those that don’t post their system, on occasion, do you view other member’s system when answering a question? I frequently view the Ops system. It provides me with some idea of the pond in which a particular component lives. I also post bec... |
