No way,No how,Never will...

Maineiac,thanks for the BPT tip,my post was tongue-in-cheek,but am serious about the things I thought I would live without.Bobby at Merlin turned me on to his favorites to go with my Merlins so I am going the Equitech route with those units when another ship comes in.Just ordered JPS power cord for amp and Cardas PC for the source.Almost 800$ for that part of the puzzle.Of course,its just a matter of time before the tubes are knockin on my door.Aint life great!Have a large day,Bob

Robm321,hi.I have wooden cabinets for amps and sources with not alot of breathing room between shelves.Just enough for the input tubes on the Counterpoints,but no more.However,I have some room to isolate sources which are modded DVD players.Any recommendations there??Thanks,Bob

Mark,knowing me,its just around the corner.My friend Artg has Nagra power that I havent seen yet,but will soon...cant get enough glow here in the North Country,Bob

Hi John,small world as I just talked to JD for the first time today!Going to get together very soon I feel.Yes,he is very deep on this stuff so isolationism etc., is looking up.Nice to hear from you and will reply as soon as I get my schedule together and find time and the sun-tanning lotion I packed away.Can you believe its January??Cheers,Bob

1)More friends than money John after the PC's today...Yes,Jaybo,Mark at Audio Perf is a fine fellow,got going with him around 88 or so with the amps,[Counterpoint,Levinson,Threshold,Bryston].2)I hear those rock Dwhitt,I also hear one of my friends has Cat Sig's mono's which,apparently, have a tube in them somewhere that won't let you go to bed at night....3)I was afraid of that David Berry,good thing I have 2 alaisis[SP]...4)Are you saying Bombaywalla to change my bait and move upstate?5)Thanks E.,for the tip,I'll remember when another one of my runners gets thru...which hybrid pre did you have?6)Thanks for the pings people,nice to hear your voices,well,back to my coma,can't spend any money there...its either that or a second job...best to pace oneself,this road never ends,Bob

Just back from a trip...thanks for that Robm,I have heard good things about them.Still waiting on some power cords and visits to my new friends cribs.Will close out this thread by saying thanks to all replys,looking forward to new frontiers,have a large weekend men[and women],Bob
