Hi everyone, Over the past year, I’ve received a lot of emails asking for one-on-one advice about CD players, DACs, upgrades, and physical media collecting in general. Sometimes it’s a specific question, “Which CD player should I buy?” or “Should I upgrade my DAC or not?”. Other times, people just want to talk through their setup, their collection, or share what they’re into right now. I try to respond when I can, but it’s not always possible to go deep in an email reply. So I wanted to share something new I’m experimenting with. I’m offering a small number of one-on-one video call sessions. These are relaxed, no-pressure conversations where we can have a video session via Google Meet discussing your stereo system needs, your physical media collection, gear you’re curious about buying, or even just talk shop for a bit with someone who’s into this stuff too. You don’t need to have a specific problem to solve, this can be just as much about sharing setups and experiences as it is about buying decisions. This offer won’t replace my YouTube content at all. It’s just an option for anyone who wants to reach me directly for a nominal fee. If that sounds interesting, click this link here to schedule your 30 minute session: https://calendly.com/aaronhartley-foreveranalog Once you sign up, it will email you a calendar invite and we will have a video conference call via Google Meet on the date and time chosen. If you have any troubles signing up, you can reply to this email for help. Thanks, as always, for being part of the Forever Analog community. — Aaron PS: My review of the Fiio DM15 R2R CD player is live on YouTube: |

Hello friends, I'm experimenting with a new online store to sell some of the CDs, vinyl and more that isn't a good fit to sell in my antique mall booth. CHECK OUT THIS STORE HERE Most of these items are purchases from my recent visit to the flea market where I found a lot of great CDs and vinyl that I don't normally see. I just released a YouTube video about those finds yesterday: I mentioned the store in this video and have had a handful of orders but also wanted to share it with my...
Hi friends, If you watch my YouTube channel, you know how much I enjoy shopping for physical media like CDs, vinyl and cassettes. Lately, I've been buying more CDs than vinyl and needed to upgrade my accessory game for this growing collection. Here are 5 items I've found very useful since adding CDs back to my collecting habit and affiliate links to purchase if you find a need for them as well: CD Player Lens Cleaner I also collect vintage CD players and 9 times out of 10, the lens in the...
Hi friends, I recently attempted using a streaming amp, the Eversolo Play, to handle playing my CD and vinyl collection and it was...interesting. NEW eBAY STORE: More on that below, but first I wanted to mention that I've been building out my eBay store again and offering CDs and more for sale. I plan on listing more vinyl soon, but I realize a lot of folks aren't comfortable shopping on Discogs because they can't see the item they are buying, so I'm now listing things on eBay as well, which...
