You might check Michael Percy Audio @ http://www.bainbridge.net/percyaudio/ - I just tried to download his catalogue, but AOL seems to be bogged down at the moment. 
Where will be hi-end audio in 2050?
In 2050, I will only be 96 and wishing that I had purchased more Amperex 6922 signal tubes in the year 2001 (before the prices went up to over $100,000.00/tube). 
Bob Dylan, have an opinion?
I forgot about the John Wesley Harding album, thanks. We just have the double Carnegie Hall CD and some new one (97 or 98) that my wife picked up (haven't listened to it yet). My wife can still recite the lyrics from the "Blonde on Blonde" album w... 
power cords/surge protector-conditioner
Is there any type of reasonably priced surge protector, that does not mess with the sound? There was talk of the Vans Ever (sp) in another thread, but I do not recall a follow up on it. I live in CA and cannot (would prefer not to) run direct to t...

BMP & Jeff: Yes, it was Ferry, thanks. My CD vendor at the flea market smiled and nodded his head when I asked him if I could exchange it, he apparently felt the same way about this particular recording. In regard to noise (not necessarily aud...

Or for a good soundtrack and visuals rent or buy "Brazil". You also get a little of "Bob" on the side in a bit part. 
help on isolation/absorption/coupling
Wtsaila: I have the same type of amp setup as you and can warn of one thing. I tried placing brass cones under my Audion amp (which sounded good) however they also stored a lot of the heat coming off the chassis which after an hours play was like ... 
Best Thread in Audiogon.
I have gained the most (as far as not frittering away money) from the "Shelf Material" and "Isolation Components" threads. The variables involved in this type of tweak can not only be mind boggling, but quite expensive as well and the shared exper...
