Warm-up time.
I have the same question as parabolic.The only things I keep powered up are my SS phono-pres.On some sessions I think I hear an improvement after 20 minutes, on some I notice no change. The ones where I do notice a change are usually playing LPs v... 
Opinions on Nuprime vs D-sonic vs Red Dragon vs Class D Audio
My Primare I32 integrated won out over an older Creek Classic 5350SE that was very well reviewed, a Belles Aria, and a Belles Soloist.I realize that my humble integrated is not in the same echelon as high-end separates; however I believe that Prim...

I don't get the LeBaron reference.I guess everyone knows the connection between Rita Coolidge and Bill Withers.  
For older guys
I think there is some Doris Day in the house somewhere. I'll have to dig it out. I wish we had some Peggy Lee. I found some more Andy Williams the last time I opened my parents boxes. I'm still not finished washing my own LPs. 
Power Cord Recommendation
Thanks boxer12. I was looking for a simple replacement cord,as the one that came with my integrated is somewhat loose on the female end and is only 18 G. I did find this one after I posted. I think it is as good as I'm going to find without going ...
