Fatigue reducing interconnect?
There's all kinds of possibilities based on your opening comments and there's lots of good suggestions here. Playing with placements and room treatments may do the trick. If you want to try different cables, don't want to pay a king's ransom and g... 
Anticables, Morrow Cables SP1 or PNF Cables
Kck, the set of PNF cables I sold was an extra pair that I wasn't using. Wanted to see someone get the benefits from them. I just went to a different configuration. I may have some of the Precision A IC's available in the near future as well as I ... 
Anticables, Morrow Cables SP1 or PNF Cables
I would HIGHLY recommend PNF Audio. I've tried so many different cables, I can't even remember them all. When I started using PNF, the merry-go-round stopped! I've never heard any cable that performs at the same level as the PNF stuff does and I'v... 
Should I Bi-Wire or Use Jumpers?
Whether or not bi-wiring is a benefit or not remains an open debate and I know some speaker manufacturers don't do it because they feel it's a detriment (ala Dynaudio). I've run both bi-wire systems and standard runs, and I'm not sure that I can r... 
Interconnects for Rotel Amp. + CD
PNF Audio makes the best cable for the dollar I've ever found. If you don't want to shell out the money for the ICON ic's, try the Precision A. It will give you about 90% of the ICON's performance for about half the price. And yes, they really do ... 
Good amp for Klyne....
Thanks Rleff, I may just do that... 
Good amp for Klyne....
Any "Klyne-ophiles" out there that have a good understanding of how the normal and inverting outputs on the SK-5A work in relation to the normal/invert switch on the front panel? When the switch is in the "normal" position are both outputs in phas... 
Good amp for Klyne....
Have the Klyne in and I'm running it right now with a Rawson amp... I may just stick with this for some time to come! 
Tube amp selection- for Magnepan 1.6QR
I've had different Maggie models over the years and have found that they usually work much better with SS amplification. I think there may be some tube amps out there that may work well, like the big ARC stuff, but at a pretty high cost. One of th... 
other speaker cable, what to buy
Try PNF Audio Symphony. Price to performance is off the scale... 
Most musical integrated amp you have heard?
The Bel Canto S300i is outstanding. 
Anti-Cabls Ic's alternatives?
Dave, I've used both the Precision A and ICON ic's and both are fantastic performers at the price. The ICON's are definitely worth the difference in price, but the Precision A is really close. I don't want to sound too much like a commercial, but ... 
MHDT Paradisea tubes
I'm guessing that you should be able to get stock tubes from MHDT. http://dhost.info/mhdtlab/I run a Squeezebox Duet via coax through the Paradisea+ and I use the fiber connection for the digital out from my Sony NS999ES. I've ripped almost my ent... 
Lacking Soundstage - Vandersteen 2C
I've had a couple of pairs of 2c's over the years and have always considered them one of the best there is. All of the recommendations above are great but it's true that your room and configuration may be a little small for them. I always found th... 
Lite DAC60 to go with Rotel 1072 ?
I'd investigate the MHDT DAC's like the Paradisea or Havana. NOS type DAC's with a tube buffered output... very sweet; I love mine!
