Building a house
Check out my house of stereo system. It probably contains most of the info you are looking for. 
to buy or not to buy (ultrasonic record cleaner)
Ultrasonic, distilled water, 20 drops of Tergikleen in 6 gallon tank. That's what you need for best results in my experience. 
Anyone else treated poorly by AVA?
The last time I talked to Frank, he told me he was in the process of teaching a new technician, so it would take a few more weeks before he could build mine. For real! Never even offered a refund at that point. That's when I pulled out. Being told... 
Anyone else treated poorly by AVA?
I posted this to make others aware of what I went through. I have ran my own businesses for over 20 years. Some things you can't sugar coat. This transaction was badly handled all around, sorry to those who are offended by hearing what they don't ...

Power Cord Order of importance
I finally splurged into upgrading power cords.  Amp, preamp, CD player and dual subs. Went with Patrick Cullen cables, Gold series. Patrick is a super nice guy, he got them made in 3 weeks. They look great. My system already sounded so good,  impr... 
What is your favorite ''slow dance'' song of all time?
No contest, hey jude, because of its length. I am talking about holding on tight to your favorite school sweetheart for 3 times longer than the two minute songs from back then.
