Seeking the Ultimate Reference for Tubes
Best tip would be to contact manufacturer of unit. I've done this with several pieces of kit and although occasionally it takes a little effort to finally get through to anyone who really knows their own product. Once you chat with the techs or ow... 
DC blockers - what's your experience
Just bought the Audiolab DC blocker. I have two dedicated AC outlets feeding my system. Since I expected there to be possibly some DC seeping through and the EMF filtering, it was worth a try at $150. First off it created what sounded like a clean... 
What Horn loaded speaker/ speaker system for $10k'ish and under
While we're on the subject of LaScalas....I own a pair of them powered by the Raven Blackhawk tube amp. Recently I finally decided to try the Bybee Quantum Clarifiers. They cost $200 for the pair. They conveniently magnetically attach effortlessly...

Anyone Tried Bybee's "Quantum Clarifier"'s Inside Your Speakers?
I had talked myself in and out of these 2' squares at $200 off and on for the past year. Knowing the seller has an in house credit exchange deal that could be used on new AC outlets, I figured I couldn't lose. Being so convinced they were snake oi...

excellent!!! I love Chet Baker too but kept buying poorly recorded stuff (especially CDs can be worthless) I'll order some LPs and get in the Chet groove, He is so mesmerizing and therapeutic. Unless any other! Seems to play from a place so genuin... 
Hum on Tube Amp - Can't find source
Put together any tube amp and the hyper efficient Klipsch Lascalas (or Klipschorn) and that efficiency will dredge the bottom of the amp's circuit mercilessly revealing the slightest hum, Paul Klipsch must not have minded this issue. (Early on he ... 
what cd player ?
Well, I have owned the Audiolab CDT6000 for about a year shy a couple months and it has this weird tendency to skip once in a while. The disc usually is pristine and strangely can be played again with no trouble. While its rare and getting more ra... 
Parasound CD-1
CD's here about 95% unless a vinyl recording brings more quality. Some older CD's sound like they were dubbed from 8-track. Yet I too am on the chase the best CD playback. Therefore I'm keen to hear the above discussion. Streaming is hopeless in m...

How rare is an audiophile
Hey Dinov (above) youre in Florida Panhandle? Me too! Thats two rare ducks in basically the same back woods as me. The LP store in Destin area has a nice selection of LP's and even was selling some used gear. The 'on-line' businesses have crushed ... 
How rare is an audiophile
Excellent question! I've often thought the same about how rare is the audiophile. I'm in the construction industry. After a hard day many seek some kind of relief. Many use music to distract from boredom on job sites. More often now, (Happily) pho... 
Audiophiles on Audiogon.
Like many here. I scan posts to see if helpful ideas or products have escaped my notice. Often I've gleaned some tip from reading another's experience with some equipment. Like the question: Are my speakers 'in phase'? Not everyone instantly knows...
