john - the ls5mkii is mostly on the sidelines for when I relocate and hopefully have a two story / with an upstairs all balanced system. thanks again for steering me that way and my local dealer is jumping for me to turn it in on trade, nope. it's great with the right power chord (richard gray gave me a chord connection), nos tubes and isolation (SRA VR stand).
the dodd - off the grid is a great pre
and I'm using it with a zyx artisan phono pre
but I know theres more - and I want to hear it
Swampwalker - i may just take you up on the offer
and I have a southwest voucher - I've flown into Long Island with them and caught the train into NYC - easier than the three NYC airports.
Doug has been such a great help, Dan_ed' comments got me to galibrier, and I've enjoyed yours as well. So it would be a real pleasure meeting all of you. Might make a side trip to Martha's, Cabe Cod, or the Upton Bass factory!
neat, thanks
then again if Larry at Parasound can lend me a demo to listen to with my own system - that would be ideal
you guys are always welcome to stop in to New Orleans
I'll show you the resolving aspects of my SRA CRAZ rack - my BEST sonic upgrade ever
Tom
