Donald Fagen-Sunken Condos
I personally like the recording but all Fagens work blurs together. It all starts to sound the same with different lyrics. I like it but he hasn't moved forward. I don't like the same old same old. 
am i done ?
Id say you're done if you like what you hear. Not all rooms need treatment and getting too far into audiophelia is just a waste of time and money. My room is treated perfectly with the furniture and rugs and books etc. Don't look for faults, they'... 
Any place that sells ML Cinema mounting brackets?
Check the Audio Advisor web site. If its not on there call them. They carry all the ML stuff including theater. 
Where to buy CD's
Amazon Prime is a must as well. You can share your Prime membership with 5 people which makes it well worth it. 
Is it worth buying a headphone amp?
I don't own a headphone amp but if you feel like practicing your soldering skills the Bottlehead Crack gets great reviews. 
Harbeth Comparison
Honeybee. There's a new boxed pair of Super HL5's on Agon right now. The person says they bought them for a second system but are backing out. Very good deal and it sounds like they never opened the boxes. Under full range speakers. (I have nothin... 
Are Harbeth P3ESR's Any Different From B&W???
Ive never heard bright associated with Harbeths. I have compact 7's but I run tube amplification. Oddly I used to own B&W DM602's with solid state NAD gear and never found it bright. I did however connect the B&W's to Rotel gear and I coul... 
Where to buy CD's
Agree with Lowrider. Ive had great luck with the private vendors on Amazon (and found some rare cd's) as well as Amazon themselves. Ive had a few cracked jewel cases but I keep a case of those on hand and just swap the cracked case out with a new ... 
No love. Why?
Don't worry about it and enjoy them. I own Harbeth and occasionally I see a post come up where the only people that post on it are Harbeth haters. I never reply because everyones entitled to their own opinion. If you can listen and enjoy the music... 
Pangea AC-9SE vs AC-9
Thanks Erndog. Maybe I can move the rack out a little to help ease the tension. 
Is it worth buying a headphone amp?
The only amp that I know of that really makes headphones shine is a Cary SLI80. Other than that I would go with a headphone amp. Especially if K702 's might be in your future. The K702 's require some serious guts but you will be rewarded. Headpho... 
Vincent 236Kkii Reliability vs. Yamaha and Luxman
I would go Luxman to make sure its your last (especially if you have a local dealer). 
New level of ridiculousness
They're not marketing them at the common sense crowd. These sell to the book smart. If you've ever used a screwdriver you're safe. 
Pangea AC-9SE vs AC-9
Can anyone tell me how flexible the Pangea AC9 is? Looking at pictures of this 7awg cable, it looks very rigid. I don't want to bend it a lot but my amp is about 14" from the wall. My current power cord is like a wet noodle so I think this would b... 
Storm Sandy - best wishes
Palasr. Thanks to the info. That's a small price to pay to keep the basement dry.
