Best cables for Shindo gear.
Stop shouting, we're no deaf.  😂  
Peformance at price point for speakers manufactured in China?
When it comes to being manufactured in China, the list would be shorter for what isn't.  I have no problem with products assembled in China.  I wonder how many negative posts and comments are made from an IPhone?  😆  
"Hardly Used / Less than 100 Hours / Took out for pics only"????
But 260 is the new 120.    
"Hardly Used / Less than 100 Hours / Took out for pics only"????
@thecarpathian  You are correct sir. 🤣  
"Hardly Used / Less than 100 Hours / Took out for pics only"????
If equipment is used 5 days per week, for two hours per day, only gets 120 hours use in 6 months.  I have sold equipment in 6 months.  Not often but it happens.    
Power strip recommendations
What is this equipment currently plugged into?  A single 15 or 20 amp breaker? As you state surge protection and filtering are not an issue, I should think Amazon will have lots of items that would work for under $100.   Again, based on your comme... 
Sound Stage and Imaging
IMHO, soundstage has always been dependent on the source material.  You can't reproduce something the engineer didn't put into the recording?  
Hegel H390 DAC
@lordrootman  and that is your opinion.   I, and many others, would only agree with the first half of your statement.  Cheers.   
Parasound JCM 250
@mipai  I have liked and owned Parasound amps in the past.  I am simply asking if "below" 1 ohm is more marketing than practical application.  My current mono blocks are rated as being stable @1ohm.  Could they have also said below 1ohm?  Again, i...

Parasound JCM 250
Looks like a scaled down version of the JC1+ mono amp they brought out a few years ago.  The JCM250 @250 watts vs the JC1 @450 watts.  Both claim to be stable below 1 ohm.  Many amps make the claim of being stable at 1 ohm but this is the first ti... 
Speaker binding posts with plastic covers
If all else fails, send an email to the manufacturer?      
I am looking to upgrade - looking for advice
@tjraubacher   No idea what your budget is but could I suggest you look at a used Hegel H390 or even the H590.  Both will give you a beautiful sound, lots of power and a very good Preamp and DAC, all in one package.  Just a thought but one that wo... 
What was the first power cable that you noticed a difference in the sound?
What I find really interesting is the number of times the subject of power cables comes up, and the response the subject seems to get every time.  This post is already on page 4.  And before someone points out that "you're reading it", yes I am be... 
Is There Just One Single Album That Does It For You, Completely? Just One.
@noromance For me, these packages like the Rhino 5 disc TOP are just a very cheap way to fill holes in my library.  At $30 (?) Its so easy.  Ive never had any issues with the sound quality.
