| Looking for a new Subwoofer According to the GR website, The GR kits are out of stock in addition to the completed single servo 15” sub. If they are not out of stock, the website needs to be updated. | |
| Matthew Bond Audio speaker cables - observations What is the pricing of these? I see in their website that they ask for you to contact them. Since you compared to Valhalla 2s, I assume that these are closely priced to those Valhalla’s. Good to see that there are competitive products in this pric... | |
| What is causing false tube faults in VTL MB450 Series III? That’s strange. Have you isolated the amp from the preamp and speakers and repeated the power on sequence? Since the tube swap did not eliminate the problem, I suggest that you start from the basics…disconnect all things connected and start from s... | |
| Would McIntosh Auto Transformers affect speaker sound? @roxy54 , @viridian +1, If anything, the autoformer allows you to have stable rated power on the selected ohm taps. If you have 2-ohm speakers, use the 2 ohm taps and you will have stable power at 2 ohms. Try that with an amp rated at 8 ohms whi... | |

| Is There Some Problem With Shunyata's Everest Power Conditioner @moto_man , I also ponder the scientific meaning of the type of phenomena we and others hear and experience regarding listening to our systems again after extended periods of non use. I believe tube warmup adds to the mix for sure. A Germa... | |
| Shunyata Denali 6000/S v2 and Typhon T2 Review @jeffreyw , Is the Denali configured for a 20 amp or 15 amp plug to the wall? Or, is it switchable to allow for either a 15 or 20 amp power cord to the wall? If the Denali is switchable, are you using a 15 or 20 amp Omega Xc to the wall? Int... | |

Sounds like you have a good combination with all the various devices and cables that you own. +1 for this “The effect that I experienced can only be chalked up to "settling in" after shipping -- a differ... | |
| Is There Some Problem With Shunyata's Everest Power Conditioner @moto_man , Very nice roll-up regarding your experiences with the Everest. I would like to know what power cable are you using from the Pass amp into the Everest? Can you still use a NR variant or do you need to use the XC variant? I ask becau... | |

| New Fozgometer V2 Can't Zero Meter No, this is not normal. My V1 operates just fine and zeros easily. I am still not sure what the V2 does better than the V1…unless it is more accurate. Try replacing batteries just to experiment. |
