    Introducing Olympus & Olympus I/O - A new perspective on modern music playback

    Old habits die hard Roon sounds great but being deeper involved than most others in the beta testing of XDMS I have little doubt that the SQ of XDMS NSM on the Olympus will eclipse Roon scrubbing is on the to do list and my understanding that is it might affect SQ in a somewhat negative way...

    I know the Lakers are facing an early exit but this bit of news today gave me some hope for things to come . Only downside that bothers me is whether that means once again D'Angelo Russell becomes expendable. I hope not

    I still believe the Bucks will have an early exit and TBH their demise might come at the hands of the very good Pacers in the first round I am also staying with the Knicks over the Sixers in the first round

    sadly, I also believe the Pelicans' run without Zion in the mix tonight will also come to an end unless Ingram finds a way to bring his "A" game and incite the rest of the team. Kings looked like their old selves when they crushed the Warriors. The Kings are a very good team and could do some...

    I just read that the Lakers haven't beaten the Nuggets since Dec 2022 Im afraid that the Lakers locking up the 7 spot has ruined their chances of getting out of the first round. They might not be swept but I can't see them winning the series. AD can't defend Jokic.....I don't think anyone can...

    I thought he rolled an ankle but this is more severe. Tough luck again for the Pels as I can't see the Pels beating the Kings without Zion Zion Williamson (hamstring) to miss Play-In game vs. Kings https://www.nba.com/news/zion-williamson-exits-leg-soreness
