| Hi current or source power cable @thedoc2004 My last post was meant to address the story you heard that using a source cord on an amp can damage the source cord. | |
| Hi current or source power cable @thedoc2004 absolutely not. But also not a good idea for SQ. | |
| Hi current or source power cable The external power supply does not need more power. If anything less. Jerry | |
| Who out there wants to, or has, validated an amazing cable find? send me one and I'll try it. RCA pair or AES/EBU. | |

| Right angle XLR adapter I know people are much more into aesthetics than I am, I'm a form follows function guy. My rack is wide open both for cooling and flexibility. I designed it myself and had it fabbed in a weld shop. It doesn't look nearly as bad as most are imag... | |

| 2a3 ? I had a wonderful Tektron amp that used 45, 2A3, and 300b. I think the 2A3 might have been best but it depended a lot on the tubes. Jerry | |

But I feel I should point out that any copper/silver alloy will always have a higher resistance than either pure copper ... | |
| Vinyl Records - Shipping, max/min temperatures Cold temps probably won't be a problem. I'd say the risk is that the get dropped etc when cold which could damage them when they are brittle. However, if they are packed tightly into boxes or crates so that they cannot move, the risk is minimal. ... | |
| Add Chord Cutest (DAC) to Bluesound Node or purchase HiFi Rose RS150BDAC Chord for sound, Rose for looks. Return the node and buy a streamer only and get more streamer for your dollar. Jerry |
