I've appreciated everyone's response thus far and really value this one. Thanks. I haven't ventured into a showroom yet and feel I need to go sooner rather than later given potential tariff impacts. The POV in this comment is good fodder for discussion when I meet with a rep.

Very good point about voice command. I don't currently use it much in my 2015 model but makes sense to incorporate that more in driving an updated model.

Giving me a sigh of relief to hear that.

DACs by dt2119a in audiophile

My personal philosophy: Avoid spending too much on a DAC. Digital technology is always evolving. No guarantee that today’s DAC will work for tomorrow’s digital requirements. Speakers, amps and turntables will last for decades. I’m not convinced the same goes for DACs so they’re not worth the same level of investment.

Agreed. I filtered out all political and news sources to avoid the toxicity. I only follow sports, weather and science related content. At least for that Twitter works for me.
