High current power cables
If small power cords are fine then how come Boulder's top of the line 3050 mono amps use a 32 amp 230 volt custom power cord and custom connectors, maybe the size of the cable really does matter. This caught my eye. It could have to do with the... 
Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed?
Me posting here and asking for feedback is *exactly* that: delving into the source of my problems. I’m open-minded and not fixated on one particular solution or the other. Yes, my budget is substantial, but that does not mean I want to throw mud ...

+1 duckworp, This thread makes me believe (more), that audiophiles are more interested in throwing money and stuff on the wall and hoping it will stick than delving into the source of their problems so that they can intelligently fix them.

No Pegasus. Would you settle for a unicorn?

Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed?
I really think this is all barking up the wrong tree. Instead of spending 25-40K that may or may not work, spend $500-1000 to start for an acoustic engineer/technician to come to your house and measure your room / system. Without a baseline to kno... 
Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed?
@deludedaudiophile I tried that and Roon’s equalizer distorts the sound to the point I can hear the difference. Piano sounds off, for example. Having a highly resolving system is a two edged sword.   Looking at the Stereophile revies of the Au...

Why not just use the equalizer function within Roon?

@mahgister ,   Fundamentally, you are either confusing the situation or confused yourself as it concerns cause and effect. Our labs are filled with millions of dollars of equipment for exploring cause. If we have a better (or worse) result, we ...

Some Amir disciples come and say no this dac is better than this one,no need to listen to it... Did you not see why this is ridiculous, to claim that some measures replace all listening, and as ridiculous as saying that some listening replace al...

Did you consider yourself the arbiter of the matter of this thread because you are a scientist? If so you are wrong....My post is related to this useless debate... The horse is dead. Long live the horse. You seem at a loss for why no one commen... 
Can a Amp be "timeless" and compete with todays amps?
@williambf , your result would imply a difference in output resistance between the two models. Have you tried using different taps to see how you prefer the sound? I gleamed this from Stereophile, not sure they are your exact amplifiers.   This ...

Nobody commented this flabbergasting video and genius idea... 😁😊 I am leaning towards the total irrelevance in relationship with the topic for the lack of interest.  It's akin to all the factual but irrelevant science often brought up in audio.... 
Fed rate increase = lower hifi prices?
It's the internet @soix, no worries. I find if you push smart people, it makes them think more and you learn more from them. I meant it quite honestly. I have no ego in this area and I did read everything you said looked deeper into some things I ...

Market is still not happy. Sometimes the best stock investment advice is not to invest.       https://fortune.com/2022/05/02/morgan-stanley-stocks-fall-sp-500-earnings-growth-slows/
