  1. If you do a search for bandwidth needed to stream HD content, I think you'll find that you have plenty.  Sounds to me like its their systems fault or youtube's and they're trying to shift the blame and up-sell you to the higher tier.  

       On a side note, I get around 150mb download speed using ethernet cables and about 80mb on wifi.  Most of things I have at home are wired, from a couple of roku players, to Kodi streamers, to computers, to my Oppo blue-ray player.

    Well we've cut the cord now 100%. Returned the cable boxes yesterday.

    YouTube TV has proven to be mostly reliable. It turns out that we don't have the highest speed internet. I thought we did. So in the next week or so we gotta return our modem/routers for the latest and greatest. It seemed like we just did that but it turns out that was three years ago already.

    The only real issue we've had so far is buffering and the couple/few times that it has done it was in the evening. Is this common with you guys?

    What is your download speed ?

  3. I love minimalist systems, with big sound.  Have a couple of pieces I first read about on ASR.    I'm a fan of the ASR site as well.   You didn't waste any time, his review came out not too long ago.   I used to have the Sonic Impact T-amp and  also the Super version.   They were quite good and it was the end of my tube amp days. 

  4. Cruising in the car yesterday, listening to the local college station and this song came on. A first listen to them.  This group knows how to make a tight toned Bass note.

     

    The Marias, Hush.

  5. There is a similar thread to this on AVS, though about why Marantz gear is so expensive.  I of course tried to be helpful and posted a review of a Marantz preamp that measured poorly on Auio Science Review.  https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/marantz-av7705-review-av-processor.25951/

    Like, who cares about price increases if its not worth getting anyways. 😀

    One thing someone posted I found of interest, is that 40 foot shipping containers used to cost $7000 and now cost $26,000.
