Well said Paul. 
Speaker and interconnect recommendations
I've used many interconnects- Cardas Golden Reference, Audience AU-24, Kimbers galore, JPS Superconductor 2, on and on and on.... Of course, synergy is important, but I'd highly recommend you take a look at both the VH Audio Pulsar interconnects o... 
About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone
Lugnut- your posts convey a sharp and clever mind. I always enjoy reading your 2 cents.I speak for many of us when I say I'm thinking of you, and pray for your quick return to our forum. 
Whatever happened to these brands?
I know that RAM is still around- stands for Roger A. Modjeski (sp)- a truly remarkable designer/engineer. 
Are you bored to tears with the topics lately?
The Da Vinci Code- it's a NOVEL- that's it. The problem I have with it is that Dan Brown weaves in "facts" that are absolutely incorrect, proclaims on talk shows that everything in the book is factual, and people lap it up. Education anyone?Oh, an... 
Where's Slappy Been Lately ???
Slappy's lurking. He's waiting for the perfect moment to hit us. 
"The Law of Diminishing Returns"???
I nominate Slappy as Audiogon "Jester in house". He's too entertaining to go without recognition.Any backers? 
Ideal Manufacturers for your local hi-fi shop...?
Regarding Cinematic Systems posting-I couldn't help but notice that you expressed your opinion in a rather authoritative fashion. I also noticed that you have no sales feedback and no items for sale.Just curious- are you a home theater system deal... 
TacT2.2-A true Revolution?
100 times better than Tube Traps? Well the 2.2 must be many orders of magnitude better than the 2.0 RCS! If so, congratulations :) 
Speaker Choice
Don't laugh...For my home theater setup downstairs, I purchased PSB's all the way around (Image 5T's, Image 9C). The PSB line provides really good performance- especially at the price point.Those speakers may surprise you. 
Musak Fidelity/Stereophile Dec
I owned a few Musical Fidelity components in the past, and found them to be very good- especially for the money.Maybe Sam actually LIKES the products and is not under some sinister economic imperative to write good reviews....Just my thoughts. 
Any thoughts on Reference Audio Mods Denon 3910?
I have an Exemplar Denon 2900,with all mods including Siltech internal wiring. This player has bested every player I owned. These include Sony SCD-1, Ayre CX-7, Resolution Audio Opus 21 and various Dac/Transport setups.My understanding is that the... 
TacT2.2-A true Revolution?
Well, I have to say my experience with the Tact 2.0 RCS was less satisfactory.Regardless of the correction employed- and trust me I REALLY worked with it, it still could not give me what my ASC tube traps provide. Now admittedly, I have more money... 
Elton John SACD releases
Well, Yellow Brick Road has some wonderful music on it, but the recording was so-so in my opinion. Too bright in spots, recessive vocals, shelved up dynamics, etc. etc. The SACD release (Hybrid) does improve on that, and interestingly enough, the ... 
Exemplar Denon 2900. WOW Need owner advice.
'Ya know, as much as 711smilin tempts me with thoughts of the Exemplar 3910, I gotta say that after listening to my Exemplar 2900 tonight, I don't think I can let that baby go.If the 3910 is better than that, I'd be unable to go to work.I've owned...
