Advent /3s NHT Superzero 2.1 Optimus LX4

Nominal impedance 8 ohms, yes that's the Peerless tweeter

Just recently got a pair of Dynaco A25XLs for free from a neighbor.

Very nice, I like Fried speakers a lot.

In addition to the weekend shows I like Bonnie Simmons and Derk Richardson on Thursday night.

Raspberry Pi 4 Khadas Tone Board Allo DigiOne Allo Volt + D

I've heard good things about the Khadas Tone Board.

As far as cheap preamps as you save up: I have a Schiit Sys passive two input and super inexpensive FX Audio 6j1 that I like. I would go for the Vidar as well but if I'm spending your money... I notice there is a Heed Elixir on Audiogon for $700.

Some Linux Distros for the RPi2: Rune, Pi MusicBox, MoOde, Volumio, Archphile. Max2Play, PiCorePlayer. I tried MoOde first because it is easy to set up and it sounds pretty good with my Schiit Modi usb dac. I'm listening to NPR All Songs 24/7 stream right now. First learned about it at...

I love the 103.2s too. Epos ES-11s or some of the Castle speakers might be a close approximation. More recent: JMR Twins?

Nice article from David McGee: http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/the-girl-singers-that-time-forgot/

I think the SoundWell in Berkeley used to have house brand speakers called Benison.

Could this somehow be coordinated with the CA Audio Show Aug 14-16

some chairs for you to sit and think about this one

I'm cheating because this album is pretty popular so this is not the cover, but a picture on the inside.

C'mon, be a thrill jockey and take a schott. How many new albums use viola da gamba and melodica?
