Jerry Garcia, A Legacy?
Not to mention there seems to be enough people who enjoy there talent to support an XM radio station that plays 24/7 nothing but their exceptional music.  
Can upgraded power cords help my setup?

Isolation feet/cones for PS Audio NuWave DSD DAC
You may also want to consider the footers that use ball bearing(s) in them. That is what i'm using under all my equipment currently. They replaced the DH ceramic cones. Although the DH cones are good, the bearing design presented a better stage &a...

Power Supplies & Performance
I'm not familiar with panamax but have tried PS audio's quad running from a PS auidio wall receptacle. That was a nice improvement (increased space between instruments mostly) to the adcom (really dating myself here) conditioner. The only thing I ... 
2017 ‘Keeper’ speakers under - $25K
The wedding vow thing always intimidated me a bit (although I've been married for a long long time), but equating that to speakers made me laugh. Anyway, if you want a commitment, I guess Lowther speakers are the way to go. This is straight from t... 
Tube Amp Pricing
The schematic design of an amp drastically changes the sound. I prefer the sound of single ended amps, although have also enjoyed triode & pentode designs. Also, even though (in some cases) the basic components appear to be the same, there are... 
Is Spiking Necesarry?
Kalai, If your basement ceiling is not finished, you could also reinforce it under your system to make the floor more robust in that area. Just a thought.

Fastest way to correct hifi system?
You're a better man than me if you can build a system "you're satisfied with long term". My wife once asked me "doesn't it sound good enough". Made me laugh. If you buy high quality components to begin with though, you can tweek them (without repl... 
2017 Honest Cabling that doesn’t promote bankruptcy
I really like the wire Oyaide uses in there Tunami cable. It provides a very nice sound stage (wide, deep, with air between instruments & vocalists) as well as smoothness with detail. I've recently replaced some power cords with it & am us...

Jerry Garcia, A Legacy?
Branford Marsalis also played with them a few times. His contribution on "Eyes of the world" off their live "Without a net" album, is awesome.  
Jerry Garcia, A Legacy?
Along with being a deadhead, I'm also a big fan of Dylan (was a fan of his before the GD) and the Band. I wish they would release Dylan & the Dead on vinyl, I'd like to make that comparison. I was listening to Planet Waves from Dylan & the... 
Can upgraded power cords help my setup?
In the last month & a half I've made a few power cords that I'm very impressed with using Oyaide Tunami wire (purchased from Chris at VH Audio) and Neotech connectors from Parts Connexion. The wire is $30 a foot & the ends are $25 each (th...
