Meridian 508.24 CD Player Discontinued
A small correction is needed. The 506 is NOT essentially the same as the 508. Even Meridian will tell you that!! I had a 506.20 and now have 508.24.The sound is totally different. The 508 does everything the 506 does doubly better.

Amplifier for Martin Logan Requests
Using a Meridian 557 200 watt amp into 8 ohms and over 350 into 4 ohms on my SL3's. A Great amp that has been overlooked by the press. Very warm and revealing!More than enough to drive any ML speaker to below 2 ohms. Steve

Used Electraglide Regular.. about $200. Also using Delta Labs Power Pro 10 gauge oxygen free copper with great results on my SL3's. 
wow, a newbie power cord convert
Electraglide cords sound magical on anything you plug into them. The electraglide regular,Reference, or FatBoy are great on digital or analogue. The FatBoy is great on power amps as well. 
need help on choosing right power cord!
