I feel your pain. It really seems like klipsch won't do much about this. I will never buy anything from them ever again.   I'm interested in that bypass though, could you share a bit more about your current setup?

Yeah, You might well be right. I just see a lot of posts and videos about people asking how to connect turntables to their soundbars. A lot of them were only ever streaming music before and now do a 180°, from total digital to total analogue, it´s funny. I guess we can just lean back and watch what happens. 😉

Hello George, wrong picture, it´s too fast for DHL... 🤣

I don´t think it´s a hype anymore , for more than 10 years the analog audio sector has been growing steadily.

Indeed Dave , same here in europe. Because of that , many music lovers prefer to buy a cd and their prices moving up as well due to their higher demand.   Btw ..I own the origin pressed Album " Live in Paris" Album twice, can send you one album with german DHL 😂  

As I understand it, at the moment, vinyl is the new gold... Let´s see when the bubble bursts. You see lots of people setting up TTs and buying vinyl, just because it´s the hype. With very few exceptions, I don´t buy what costs more than 30€.

don't blink

The good news is you are in Singapore with Cornwalls and with many great hifi shops. The good news is your cornwalls are easy to drive and don't need heroic amplification. You have to start somewhere. It is a balancing act. Get started. Get some gear and enjoy the music. You can always buy sell and trade till you know what you like. Good problems to have.....    

Those crazy prices and average quality will drive a man to buy CDsssssss 

Man, if I was closer...     Tim
