Mike's Barn.
Apparently the owner of the system in the video is / was managing a car dealership for a living. I know that has nothing to do with anything, but I can't help finding it interesting anyway.    
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
@kevn  I respect - and share, mind you - your desire to learn more about cables, and more specifically which of their properties benefit sound quality and which do not. I also think you're asking a person you should not be asking. The subject is... 
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
@kevn it's starting to look as of this dumpster fire of a thread - starting with the original post - is aimed at putting @atmasphere on the spot - about cables, no less, a topic only a newborn or an imbecile would regard as safe and noncontroversi... 
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
its obvious that manufacturers have the ways of ’tailoring’ the sound of cables. Would be very curious to know and understand process behind it So would I  
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
Cable warning: In recent years a number of cables have emerged on the marked that are manufactures with no or little consideration to the electronics that they are connecting, unfortunately there are no standards and some ”exotic” cables can crea... 
How remove odor from interconnect?
Hard to say without knowing what causes the smell. Smokers sometimes douse stuff in Febreeze to overpower their cigarette stench. It works, but it leaves Febreeze's own revolting scent behind. Which usually comes off pretty well with 99% isopropy... 
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
@jetter Honestly @atmasphere deserves a lot of credit for being so forthcoming while being somewhat unfairly put on the spot by a question that applies not just to him but to every manufacturer on the planet, assuming of course that that questio... 
Question for Atma-sphere, will expensive power cables improve your amplifiers?
In fairness though, the actual voltage drop across a power cable is going to be as insignificant as its resistance and in any event, wouldn't mitigation consist of heavier gauge conductors (ref. Ohm's law)? I am not suggesting power cables do not...

tomthiel  These wood species tend to change hues with time and UV exposure. Wondering how the factory mitigated that?  
Krell Moves to new location
It was @piebaldpython who suggested that Willie Barnett was setting up an indie repair shop as Krell is being taken apart. I merely pointed out that nothing in his post suggested that. In fact he was directing folks to contact the putative new ow... 
Krell Moves to new location
@piebaldpython I'm confused. The facebook posting @bulldogger shared may look dodgy as heck with all the smileys and caps and exclamation points, but absolutely nothing in it suggests that that Willie Barnett person is setting up an indie repair s... 
Preamplifier options - seeking help to determine which one
Interestingly for such a rare bird, there’s a Yamamoto A-011 SE 2A3 on craigslist right now, of all places. It’s in Seattle. Single-digit-watt amps are not my cup of tea, the polar opposite actually, but it’s a sweet-looking amplifier that looks ... 
Buying used audio equipment in peron in Canada
@nonoise you sure are getting tedious I don’t know how to tell you this: I did NOT get your post deleted, because: - I strongly believe in freedom of speech even when that speech is idiotic, and - I believe your utterings should be preserved a...
