    The kit we bought, our current setups

    Nice texture on the wall, looks really nice. Also i photosympathize with your late stage death plant, a sure reminder of our own mortality.

    My face when someone tells me "I'm in the hobby for 40 years, my ears take the best measurements".

    The wealth-building thread

    This paper makes an interesting case for 100% stock indexes, regardless of age: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4590406 It basically takes a large number of past yearly market performances, randomizes them into lifetime-sized market performances and then runs a simulation...

    Inside Yamaha amps

    I don't think so. However, i haven't tried it for a few years now, so maybe Musicast gained the functionality. I'll give it a try if i find an ethernet cable.

    Inside Yamaha amps

    Not much to say, the App worked with Android 4 till Android 8. I have Android 15. You can still use the device knobs if you sit in front of it, but who does that anymore. The streamer can't be detected by Spotify either, so all it can do today is play DLNA manually...

    The App doesn't work with the latest Pixel OS. I have a new streamer, but still, a shame.

    Thanks a bunch. Very nice pics and specs, added to the index in post #2. :D Thanks again, added to the index as well. Accept my deepest apologies, i'm terribly busy with ... other hobbies! ;) Sweet. It's a very nice looking amp. I have the NP-S2000. It's a paperweight now.:eek:

    Seems the Ebay shop for Fosi stuff in Germany, and possibly other regions, gives 20% on everything. On top there are sometimes another 7% or 9% from Ebay. Example:

    How about a pair of Wharfedale Linton 85 for 798€? Not the lowest price we have seen, but certainly a very fair one. Free shipping for Germany, you have to ask for other countries. https://csmusiksysteme.net/Lautsprecher/Regal-Lautsprecher/Wharfedale-Heritage-Linton-85-Schwarz-Stueck.html

    Sadly only for selected brands and used stuff. Anyway, they have a pair of Klipsch RP-600M II for 354.05€ (if you pay via bank transfer). https://hidden-audio.de/product/klipsch-rp-600m-ii-paarpreis-regallautsprecher-1014467/?varid=1014465 Except for the hideous Klipsch design, this speaker...

    Sucks. I suspect the reason is that DHL Germany has introduced a new price tier between 10kg and 31.5kg at 20kg. If you are interested you can send them to me and i send them to you for whatever is the best shipping cost, just PM me. Anyway, if someone needs a fair pair of headphones that can...

    Wharfedale Super Denton

    I highly recommend you buy a UMIK1 or something to measure it yourself, that way you don't have to trust anyones subjective opinions. Well, considering the price of the Super new, and the price of the Linton used, i think i would go for the Lintons. Got mine for 650€ the pair with stands. 800€...

    Yamaha R-S202 Receiver Review

    I saw their guts and think you are right. The R-S202D add bluetooth and also DVB, but it wasn't a thing in the US so amir got what was available, the R-S202. Not sure if there is anything like DVB in the US at all.

    Yamaha R-S202 Receiver Review

    I would go for the A-S301, no contest. It's a better amp in every metric, build, features, quality, sound, looks. It doesn't have a radio, but other than that, the 301 is really better in every single little thing it does. To get a complete kit, i would pair it with a Wiim Mini or Pro as a...

    Spotify to launch 'Hi-Fi' CD Quality Tier.

    What kind of hardware do i need to get Apple music into a MiniDSP Flex HT (input would be USB with max 8 channels, the device has no codecs or something)? Would a regular Thinkpad do for a test?
