Thank you! Sounds like NAD is your ticket. I should give Lyngdorf a listen. Hegel H190 is a stellar one. I don’t particularly need streaming as my source is always a Mac Mini, which takes care of stuff wirh all the flexibility I need across all my music. Just need a good amp to help with the...

Out of curiosity which one did you end up going with? I’m trying to decide between Hegel H120 and Lyngdorf TDAI 2170.

I’m surprised it’s on there! Amazon lacks so much of the music in my playlists. Even Spotify doesn’t have this album anymore, not in my region anyway. It sounds spectacular on Tidal anyway. Enjoy!

If anything, the forced lockdown will make more people wonder what to do at home. Perhaps HiFi will be one of the top options :)

So. Back to the OP. I find Tidal’s rendering of Bela Fleck is sublime with the right components.

I've noticed it depends on people's range in music, and their taste in listening to a pre-packaged sequence of songs that they may or may not like (I.e., an album) or their own curated playlists. The element of discovery is superb in Spotify, and it's by far the largest collection of music from...

My vote would go for offerup on - Marantz PM6006 - Cambridge Audio CXA60 - NAD D3020 All within range, and they sound very decent with Dali/Wharfdale/ELAC.

Having owned both LG (OLED) and Samsung (QLED), all of this is pedantic. All TVs in the last few years have stellar picture quality. Given that QLED is mostly if not only Samsung...this is clearly a paid thing?

City of Angels - Savage Rose (Tidal Hifi)

Right, because everyone who has moved on from the morass of CD racks and can find even greater joy in the freedom and flexibility of high-res streaming while getting the same audio quality as the past is a snowflake and a millennial. (I'm 50.) My Monitor Audio Silver 200 speakers powered by...

Touchy :) I’m glad you have the space to keep CDs. Let me know when you discover a technology to make your own playlist sequence.. some of us prefer not to be stranded with a sequence of songs where 2 out of 10 are worth the time. Good for you. Meanwhile for 99% of the world there’s no...

Convergence by Malia. On tidal, it sounds as clean as it can. I also have it in lossless audio files which when played via a DAC that upscales, sound remarkably similar to the Tidal version. Boris Blank is a genius. (Just to add, people who still in 2020 spew CD-hugging drivel about how...

I have them in my den, it's a small 12 ft x 10 ft room. High and mids are superb. Bass is crisp and decent, and I'm surprised the sound comes from these tiny speakers. You can throw pretty much anything at them: jazz, hard rock, electronica...(I listen to a huge range), and they shine. For a...

None of those. Dynaudio XEO 4 is where it becomes interesting, Xeo 2 is way too underpowered. KEF is nice, but again, no match for some stellar options these days: Edifier S2000 Pro, or Kanto TUK.
