Re: I have joined the mainstream
I am always of the opinion that it's 'music first' and the audio gear shouldn't get in the way of your enjoyment. Having had a megabuck Mark Levinson system (on loan) for several years, I hardly used it due to the cold, sterile presentation. The ego-trip of having expensive, esoteric gear to show-of...

Re: New Adventures in Chi-Fi
Earbud update - a few days further and the two sets of earphones are running-in nicely. The Hifi Walker A1 are in use with my tablet for Netflix duties and are proving themselves to be ideal for TV shows.

Re: Ethernet Cables
Best results I have had are with generic CAT8 cables where, I believe, each internal conductor is individually shielded. AudioQuest ethernet links are excellent, I have the Forest and Cinnamon in use, the latter giving the smoothest, most 'audiophile' performance. Long runs in-house between network ...

Re: New Adventures in Chi-Fi
The evil, twisted algorithms at Amazon have been up to their nefarious tricks again. The Netherlands branch has at the moment a short Spring Sale action with irresistable prices on articles you might just be wanting. Knowing that I had been busy with portable hifi, the ads for earbuds came rolling b...

Re: Your last listen
