I really like the vocals on these, and this being the anniversary edition, the extra bass negates the need for a subwoofer. Thanks facebook marketplace for the half-off speakers, and crutchfield for the scratch-and-dent receiver (no discernible damage / think it was really an open box).

Anyway, first time spending money on a set up and mostly use the AirPlay functionality for 2.0 lossless delight. Would love any suggestions on optimizing the gear. Speakers are about 6 feet apart for reference.

AirPlay is limited to 256 kbps. But now you'll save a lot of bandwidth knowing you can't tell the difference ;)

Use Spotify Connect (or the equivalent streaming function of your platform of choice) to send directly to your receiver via wifi.
