I'm an audio enthusiast who just set up an RPi 4 with Moodeaudio and I am liking it very much.

Previously ran Volumio on this device and became disillusioned with how it worked and I experienced quite a bit of instability.  I have found Moodeaudio to be very stable and really easy to use.  It scanned and handles my 30,000 plus track library very well.

My signal flow is Moode / RasPi>>SMSL SU-9>>Fossi V3 Mono block pair>>Wharfedale Lintons / Polk Sub

Welcome aboard. !

Many years past I had a pair of Wharfedale Lintons...the old style with the purple mid/tweeter :-).
They were second hand to me and I would have happily kept them but found one driver with a nasty rattle from the previous owners pounding and back then the options for repair and recone were almost non-existent in my neck of the woods.
I remember them with regret.

Stop me before I start reminiscing about the KLH speakers I used to have. Gave them up 20 years ago and still wonder why. Wharfdales and ARs were their competition back in the day.

@norcalscott - glad to hear you are enjoying moOde. All props to Tim for this “labor of love.”

Kent

The new ones are pretty good - designed by the folks in England but manufactured in China, like just about everything else these days, but my understanding is that they take great pains to do it properly.  I really like the looks of these, and also have the stands.  The sound takes me back to the days of proper 1970s stereo systems with big heavy speakers, although these are not quite so large as that  Smile

KHLs were great!  I'm glad to see that good quality retro speakers are popular these days, albeit with more modern drivers and crossovers.

Moode is indeed a great system - I am enjoying it very much and good to see Tim over on Audio Science Review providing information and support - I'm over there under the same user name.
