Who Tried Power Conditioners Over The Years and No Longer Use Them Today, Any Why?
I bought an Audence AR-6 a couple of houses ago and it got rid of the noise in the power.  The last house, the power was cleaner and I pulled it from the system.  We just moved again and the power here is really flaky so it’s back in the system.Al... 
Looking for a SS integrated Amplifier recommendation going into a new system
I just bought a Hegel H390 and am very pleased.  It has everything I need and is the quietest amp/integrated I have ever heard!  If you need more, the H590 might be good for you also.All the best.JD

Science that explains why we hear differences in cables?
Back in the day when I replaced the cheap interconnects I was using between my preamp and amps with Monster IC’s, the difference was huge!  IC’s matter!JD 
Tiny bridges everywhere, but why?
I made 8 blocks from 2X4’s to keep the speaker wires off the floor on my basement system.  Haven’t done anything yet on the new system yet.All the best.JD

Anyone dislike Ohm Walsh speakers?
I had a pair of the Ohm F’s from 1978 to 82-3 and liked them a lot. Placement wasn’t overly finicky and they gave a very spacious sound. While I have not heard the 2000’s, I hear nothing but great things about the whole line from the 1000’s up.All...
