With all the kerfuffle hereabouts, I almost forgot to tell you how much I enjoyed listening to Marc Ribot and the Prosthetic Cubans (Los Cubanos Postizos) last night, a wonderful and wonderfully recorded album built around Cuban beats with composi...

One thing that has struck me as I added the SR Black fuses and now at about 150 hours with the Black Outlets is that undesirable artifacts that I previously attributed to various forms of physical resonance (speaker, room, component, etc), were ...

nyame:I don't have that one. I do also have I Remember Miles and You're My Thrill. Thanks for another good 'un to check out!

charles1dad:Thanks for the recommendations. I lost a great deal of my jazz collection when I sold my 4,000-ish LPs, and along with it, a number of Monk albums.On your recommendation, I just ordered them from Amazon....

ptss:Yes, you missed something.charles1dad:I too, am a Monk fan. In my office I have a very interesting Jim Marshall photo of Monk in his NY apartment's kitchen, he in a silk smoking jacket-like affair with matching hat, posing awkwardly with his ...

David:To your list, I would definitely add the SR HFTs and FEQ and/or Atmosphere. At over 100 hours in, the SR Black outlets continue to evolve for the better. Renders truly stunning music...

I've been CD-only since I sold all my LPs and my beloved Simon Yorke S-9 Record Player (serial no. 005) back in 2007. A few years ago I started burning my CDs to an externally powered hard drive in AIFF format using iTunes on a Mac Book Pro so I d...

UPDATE:  A few days ago, I replaced the two Shunyata Research SR-Z1 outlets on the dedicated lines feeding my system with the Synergistic Research Black UEF duplex AC receptacles. Bottom line, I spent $500 and, in the process, got new speakers i...

Twenty-four hours in, and all I can say right now is, "Wow!" 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
I just installed the SR Black outlets. The first thing I realized as I dug in to the project was that I was replacing not PS Audio Power Ports as I thought, but rather two Shunyata Research SR-Z1s, very robust Hubbell-based outlets which are cryo-... 
Alternative application of SR HFT
Interesting. I have other fish to fry right now, but I have had truly excellent results with the HFTs in my room and on my speakers among a number of other SR products. I will keep it in mind, as I have contemplated introducing damping to my EL-34...

I received my two SR Black outlets today and I have to say that they are not outwardly impressive in any way. Black plastic, a steel back-strap stamped "spec grade" and the code-required tamper-resistant nylon "shutters" over the hot and neutral s... 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
To complement my system's phalanx of SR Black fuses, I just ordered a second Black outlet for my second dedicated line. It was gonna be kind of a pain to replace even one of them as the two lines share a double outlet box back in a corner, so I fi...
