Zavfino OCC SILVER DART 1.5 power cable
+ whatever cleeds  I've a full loom of the Zavfino Prima and love them.  They replaced Cullen Crossover II PCs which are quite good.  The Prima, more expensive than Cullens, providing improvement in detail, attack and soundstage.  The bass detail ... 
Luxman 595ASE
Great!  Got my wife the Luxman 509X.  I love it too, but because it's shiny, has large bright meters with bouncy needles.  It sounds terrific and I'm easily entertained by the aforementioned qualities.

To couple, or not to couple, that is the question
grannyring   Walked the IsoAcoustics Gaia l footers road and they were great.  Moved to Townshend Podiums and even better at a much higher price.  Speakers are ATC 50 actives, so they are back heavy with the tri-pack of amplifiers.  The podiums ar... 
Well mastered Compact Disks
Regarding Carmen Gomes, George Foreman once observed: "Boxing is like jazz. The better it is, the less people appreciate it." Perhaps applied to Blues also.  I'm not saying to like her, but perhaps appreciate how effortless her delivery is.      
a question for audio-friends in Sweden
echohifi.com has unopened cassette tapes and the occasional cassette deck.  Cheers  
Active Speakers Better? No, per Michael Borresen
Just to tickle the dragon, believing this subject somewhat beaten to death, not only in this post but others, but are not nearly everyone's subwoofers active?  I like many here have owned a plethora of everything, but I've never done the passive s... 
Surge protection
Sorry for double post, didn't mean to.  Cheers  
Surge protection

Luxman Knockoffs or Counterfeits?
So much angst.  New from an authorized Luxman dealer or used from here at Audiogon or Audiomart or Echo Audio or.......  It's a waiting game.  Best of luck. Cheers  
Live Singing - TikTok
TikTok TikTok, your real life is ticking away.  Correct, wrong venue as nobody will care and render fuel to a directionless flight.  We have non-TikTok lives to live.  
I’m about to push the button to get 2 SVS 3000 micros to add to ATC SCM40s.
Well, it's done and that works.  I would have moved to the ATC SCM 49A speakers for I believe a better outcome.   I ran the active for some years and they are shockingly good and provide better bass control.  Enjoy the outcome.
