+ for Modwright.  No experience with Dan’s amps but he tube modded my OPPO Sonica DAC years ago. Does great work.  Stand up guy.   
Old stock power cords and SMTPs
Ok! SMPS. Jeesh. Tough crowd.    
Tannoy Westminster’s Audition?
@rolox Interesting your reaction to GRFs. I did not audition them with Kensingtons but vastly preferred the warmth and depth of my Mini Autographs to the GRF. I heard them with Wilson SASHA’s and to my ear they were almost indistinguishable on the... 
Thinking Hybrid Integrated.
My Heritage is in Italy now for the MKII upgrade.  This is Pathos to me on the mod: “The InPoL2 MkII and the InPoL Legacy have an improved circuitry, so we introduced it in the Heritage as well; we replaced also some components with higher qualit...

SMTP obviously.  Thanks for the help.   
Tannoy Westminster’s Audition?
Had a similar issue even living in Chicago. I’d recently got Autograph Minis for my beftop  and was smitten so wanted to hear a bigger Tannoy to compare with my Rockport Atria ii’s.  I drove to Glenn Poor’s in Champagne Urbana. They had the GRF’s... 
Nuclues plus bricked
Join the club. I bricked two.  Moved on to Innuos Zenith MK3 and never looked back.    
About ready to give up on Roon and my streamer
I haven’t been happier since dumping Roon. Both for hardware and tech service related issues. I moved to Innuos Zenith MK3 and use their Sense app for steaming. Sense requires Innuos hardware. Their new Pulse units are relatively inexpensive and ... 
DFW folks - anyone have these speakers I could listen to?
@carlsbad2 I wish I could disagree. But don’t blame the Tannoys.  I don’t understand why Upscale doesn’t spend for a big first floor room to show the Tannoys. And bring Canterburys as well.  I own Autograph Minis w/NAIM UNITI ATOM) and Kensington ... 
Coaxials - Reality vs. Experience?
@mulveling I traded Rockport Atria ii’s for Tannoy Kensington GRs. Bought Autograph Minis for my bedroom and was so smitten I searched out the larger Tannoys. Listened to GRFs which were not quite to my taste, and Canterburys which were to big f... 
Heavy duty amp stand, Sonic benefits?
My Patios InPol Heritage integrated sits atop a heavy (non-audio) wooden rack.   the stand is two IKEA APTILIG bamboo boards (1-3/4” each) separated by Herbie’s  Giant Fat Dots with Herbie’s Giant Fat Gliders under the stand.     Isoacoustic OREA... 
Modem power supply question
Odd problem with iFi iPower Elite.  The barrel plug does not fit my XFINITY GATEWAY modem. None is my selection of adapters do either.  Does anyone know the barrel adapter size I would need to go from iPower Elite to the modem?  
Admitting my error…
Thanks, all. Some wise words here.    
The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses
Suggestions for Purple/Master fuses? Pathos InPol Heritage Integrated  Innuos Zenith MK3  My DAVE does not take fuses.    
Rockport Atria II or Magico A5
@christianb5s4 This is an older post.  I’ve since moved from Kanta 3 (like you I see very little about this fine speaker online) to Atria ii’s. K3s we’re my first high end flop stander (after Harbeth m30.2 with HSU subs) and I enjoyed them while I...
