New Fuse Thread . . .
I don't disagree with your comments about room treatment, I invested an additional $30K for design, materials and work in my listening space when reconstruction was done a few years ago. Even before that investment, the Isoclean fuses were enough ... 
New Fuse Thread . . .

Everyone likes to talk about double blind audio, compared to clinical drug testing. The big difference, the drug effect is tested long term, not one pill one day and another pill the next.Perhaps the reason Tbg and I are so against DBT is because ...

If one is going to replace their power cord and buy gold fuses, it seems that this is all for naught without replacing the Romex from the outlet to the panel.By that logic, there should be no need for high quality copper wire and good parts when t... 
Is break in quicker with Planars and Stats?
