Choosing from your list but adding the excellent suggestion by Mikeylee, I would go with 1. second REL subwoofer and 2. Have Sterling Tryale optimize your system/room.
I think Mobile Fidelity has just made this one available for preorder, 45 RPM LP set. That ought to be a good one.

That's pretty interesting. I always wondered where the design aesthetics came from on Wadax gear. I for one have always liked it.....kind of a high end industrial vibe to me. Guess it makes sense seeing as how I've always loved the steampunk design of Dan D'agostino.

I agree with a lot of the suggestions on here, I think one of the most interesting things that could be done and to my knowledge isn't done on any of the other channels is in person visits and system reviews of real life members of the audiophile community. I think that's why we enjoy so many...
Hi Lee, IMHO, I would take a look at Teddy Baldassare's YouTube channel and how he approaches the watch industry, he covers things like industry news, reviews, interviews with collectors, trips to factories and such. I think he comes across as very likeable, professional and knowledgeable all...
I read this yesterday, really interesting and like you said, sad article. It would have been tough seeing a close family member/father alienate the people closest to him for this pursuit. It sounds like he crossed the line from the hobby being fun to an unhealthy obsession years ago. I...
Beautiful, the bird's eye maple is stunning, even more so in person. Glad you enjoy them, too bad Avalon is not getting more press here in the US these days.

I had a weird purchase that just didn't work out, still don't know what the deal was.....several years ago I purchased the Imagine John Lennon box set. The first record began skipping and had a weird distortion that I had never really heard before. Most every record had the same problem so I...
I wasn’t aware of their website or anything but I’ve been wondering that too lately, they seem to be forgotten as of late in the publications and I can’t recall seeing them at the last AXPONA either. My first high end set of speaker cables was a pair of MIT Terminator 2 biwires. Good memories...
@ihmeyers Good to have you here in the ATL! Hope your move goes well. Unless he's moved since I spoke to him last, Jim Smith (of "Get Better Sound") lives over in Cumming in your neck of the woods. That's how I hooked up with him before he voiced my room some years ago.

Great question……was going to do a nice system thread here when I get a chance, I’ve been a long time reader but started contributing just recently……..so the Tidals are new, I’ve had the Isis for about 6 years and just recently spiked the Contrivas to get out of the “setup” phase. Several...
I need to get over there, I haven’t been to Evolution in years. I still have my Paradigm inwalls in a bedroom system I bought from them when they were over near Gwinnett Place. They were one of the first high end dealers I visited back in the mid-90s. They were pretty cool folks if aI...
