Slow speaker cables?
Thanks Al. That's very generous of you but I'm not about to put your insight to the test. It's off to Wikipedia!LOL. Not really. I'll need a week or so. But I was hoping Kijanki would have continued on another thread regarding skin effect. My rese... 
My amp has no faults
I have three pairs, Kef 105/2s, Mission V63s, and JBL L5s. Also a pair of Velodyne 12" powered subs. Right now, the L5s are coupled to one of my Acoustat TNT200s through a Meridian 501 pre and Oppo BDP95. I have two other TNT200s and a TNT120 curr... 
Why is my Krell fading out?
At this point, is even safe to turn this thing on?

Okay Roscoeiii, you've answered the question and I trust your opinion. You clearly have the experience to justify your position. But it's your position on preference that I'm interested in. Thank you.Mapman, measurable specs or efficiency are irre...

I'm just guessing:) Btw, just because an amp performs as designed doesn't make it a "good" performer in any circumstance. In any case, you haven't named any names.

Okay, we have four players, five including me. Elizabeth is clearly not happy with her Bryston, lots of those for sale used. I think I might venture Wilsynet's and Timrhu's Hypex Ncore NC400s. Lots of great reviews on them. Besides, I have no expe...

I would but I haven't seen one of them for the last 15 years. I think they're all gone now. 
Best chestnut roasting recipe
Okay. You're suggesting hours, not minutes. Is that the key? I've tried high heat , low heat, barbeque, oven, boiled, various internet recipes. They always turn out the same, baked potato. But they've never been in longer than 1/2 hour. The little...

Why no as many post about music vs equipment......
I think it's like what Stewie said. We like to focus on the means to the end. The tangible. That's what makes it a "hobby". Musical instruments are tangible and so can be a hobby. I don't see how we can "just" listen to music without focusing on t...

Okay, at least you're having fun. If the question seems too skewed, just tell us which amp you would rank #1 in your experience.
