When did you start to love music and why?

Power Cables diminishing returns
Wildoats, you will also have to block my ears, so they won't hear Ferrari:-). That also doesn't mean that guy who bought Ferrari was smart or one who bought Toyota was stupid. In most of the cases, trust me, it's vice versa. 
Why No Power Button on Some Phono Stages?
Dover, How do you discharge PS caps? Turning off for day or 2 may not do the trick and still keep'em charged. It's highly recommended regardless of unit being turned on or off to discharge caps with 1mOhm resistor before any 'surgery' on electroni...
