Streamed through a Blue Node Spotify didnt impress, Tidal is better so the big wait for Spotify was for nothing.

Re: You’re doing it wrong…
I think it means they are using some kind of "grey water" for the toilets... perhaps other sources of running water, too.
Dogs tend to view toilets as "draft", don't they?
But, yeah...

Re: Death to The Music Room....
Sorry, but do you think any other new/used dealer is any better? They are one of the best I've dealt with. They need profits to keep the doors open and pay staff.

Re: RD0-194 upgrade in SDA SRS2 was a big disappointment
@jmardy
I'm 68 years young, and I have the same speakers you have. This is my second pair. I reluctantly had to sell my first pair.
I've replaced all 8 tweeters with RD-0194s.
I also can't hear above 11khz on a normal flat hearing test. I'm not sure if turning the equalizer/tone controls up around those higher frequencies allows me to hear above 11khz or not. I worked around loud trucks a lot in my life.
Now, I agree with you that the RD-0194s sounded DULL when first installed. Too dulled, I THOUGHT but...
MANY years ago, Polk Forum members here told me to give them a week or more, and they'd liven up. THEY DID, or I got used to them. The second pair, after quickly replacing them too, sounded a little dull, but quickly sounded just fine. REAL FINE in fact.
Let them break in.
Take the SL2000s back out. Break the 4 new ones in at the same time. In a month or less, you'll probably like the sound those beautiful speakers will be putting out. A lot of us have lived your experience. We all now agree the RD-0194s sound very nice, and better than the old SL2000s.
If you still prefer the older tweeters, we won't scorn you. We all hear differently.

Re: RD0-194 upgrade in SDA SRS2 was a big disappointment
Don't take this the wrong way, but you may have high frequency hearing loss that makes the sl2000 sound more pleasing
I think it's like plus 8db at 13khz which is a significant bump

Re: Death to The Music Room....
this is very very normal John
TMR takes on your used gear and provides a warranty behind it and will fix gear at their cost
No different than trading a car in really.
I do agree their direct purchase price is super low and their consignment borders on unreasonable
but you pay for convenience!
