Albums you do not get...a plea for help and understanding
@larsman    +1   Your correct.  Yes, Frank Zappa was very innovative and successful with his early works in avoiding "The Beatles" sound signature. IMO The Doors were the most exemplary band of the late 1960's when regarding a unique style of pop...

Why the need to defend Frank Zappa? He played with talanted musicians and attempted to be clever and unique with his music/lyrics. After awhile his "shitck" becomes worn out and even corny!

Why Is Hi Fi Gear So Darn Expensive?
+1 @thyname Why are so many budget conscious Audiophiles(?) so concerned about what others spend? I think there is a mind set(fear=snake oil) in them to beat the "Pay to Play" theory which unfortunately exits Another meaningless cliche is "The La...

Why Is Hi Fi Gear So Darn Expensive?
@yogiboy +1 I do have issues with CHI-FI. Since Hegel and Denafrips appear to be accepted by the majority of Audiophiles why not a speaker? From what I have read the final assembly of Aerial speakers is done in MA. The cabinets and parts are Chin... 
Why Is Hi Fi Gear So Darn Expensive?
@mapman  You have probably have been interested in audio longer then myself. I got started in High School early 1980's even had a pair of Ohm(you worship) Walsh 2's that cost around $700(which was expensive in 1982) not bad for a 17 year old kid! ... 
What difference do power cables make?
@lanx0003    -1  A PS Audio PC 12 is a poor example of an older premium? power cord. Lets see someone make/sell a Shunyata King Cobra clone for $80 with equal sound and quality. I would be first to order!

What difference do power cables make?
@maxwave Congrats on the Vinnie Rossi Brama! Italian made amps always seem to have a magical spell on vocals. As you know the better your components get the more sensitive they are to everything- cables isolation and even power conditioners. My E... 
What difference do power cables make?
@maxwave IMO your power conditioner is dictating the SQ NOT the UberBus power cord(PS Audio AC 12) Are all 8 pc’s XLO Signature 3’s? To Answer your question a better power cord will improve your SQ even if plugged in the UberBus. Since I don’t kn... 
What difference do power cables make?
@maxwave   Do you have a dedicated line? My experience tells me a dedictated line makes the most audible improvement. Then upgrade the receptacle outlet, now your ready to experiment with different power cords.
