Anyone ever try ear candles for better listening?
Did the ear candles once. It did help to clear out the wax canals, and like all tweaks, the use of the paper plate definitely produced tighter bass & more extended highs.Moving toward the opposite end of the network, I too have had high coloni... 
What Happened to Neil Young's New Release ???
I heard the NPR review as well, and they did not characterize the album as having been "thrown together". The reviewer said that while these were not the best songs Neil has ever written, with some of them going on perhaps a wee bit too long, he s...

But have you listened to a Rogue Audio Cronus or a conrad johnson CAV50.Yes. 
Best 1m Interconnect under $100
Check out www.silentaudio.comSilent Audio? I tried their cables, but no sound came out. 
Power Cords on a $1000 budget what would you do?
I too agree with Tvad. I love the Purist line. However, I would not put a $900 PC on a $550 CDP. The Volex PC's are excellent as well, and at $8 per, they're a no-brainer. And for me, a no-brainer is a great proposition, because I have little rese... 
Best 1m Interconnect under $100
Dennis,May I ask if you plan on replacing the Venustas with a $100 IC? If you find one to be its equal at that price--I haven't--please let us know. Considering the sonic qualities of your SET amps & Purist cables, you will likely find the Rid... 
Power Cords on a $1000 budget what would you do?
Buy used virtual Dynamics Master.Period.Read the rewiew in the new Absolute Sound.I agree, great PC. Use one myself, in fact. However, he needs to buy THREE PC's, and three Masters will put him way over budget. My suggestion is to consider spendin...

what does the new Audio Aero Prima Hybrid retail at?I believe it is $2750US. 
Does your system always sound good?
For 2-3 years, our system sounded great sometimes, less so at others. I continued to change amps, cables, tubes--you name it--to try and find the configuration that would sound good all of the time. We stumbled upon the realization that in order t... 
does a stereo system sound like live music ?
Oh hell, John, now I have to go to the online Latin dictionary!Just give Guidocorona a shout. I'm pretty sure the Babel Fish translator is his blog.

Not an empty seat in the house. 
Cayin A 88-T integrated:The new King of the Hill?
The Audio Aero Prima Hybrid is outstanding. Texture, musicality, and dimensionality that will have you shaking your head in disbelief. I was turned off hybrids until I heard it. Now they have a 100W version. There should be a dealer near you in Mo... 
does a stereo system sound like live music ?
i believe that a stereo system recreates about 10 % of what a live orchestra sounds like.So are you saying that I'm the audio system and John Holmes is the orchestra? 
Cornwall new terminals
Unless you want to take on a larger project, I found the easiest way to address this issue is to get a cylindrical spacer the width of the contact area on the terminal strip. Then, get two washers per side to 'pinch' the large spade, and a longer ... 
how can a line cord affect frequency response ?
I'm almost at the point, after 28 years in this hobby, that I believe there is no bad product, it's all synergestically related.Thank you for your post. I agree completely, John. Your comments are thoughtful, and they remind us of how often in the...
