Sadurni Acoustics - anyone hear these?
They recommend a 1.5 watt amplifier but their favorite puts out 3.5 watts. I would love to hear those. What a work of art as well. My eyes almost blew out of my skull when I had my first look. 
Some girls Deluxe
How many unreleased songs are on it? I heard one of them on NPR last week and it was actually very good. 
Recordings with BASS
Morphine 'Cure for Pain' 
The Piano - Herbie Hancock
I placed an order on Amazon for 'The Piano' on compact disc ($24) and about 3 weeks later I got an e-mail stating that the order has been cancelled because the seller was out of stock. This past Saturday my wife and I decided to pump a little mone... 
Audiolab 8200 CDQ CD Player
I own the CDQ. What would you like to know? I don't use mine as a pre-amp, but as a CDP and I stream 24 bit FLAC with my laptop through the USB. It has 6 or 7 filters, which is way overkill IMO. I finally settleed on one filter because I found mys... 
Best Stand for Harbeth 7ES-3 Compact
Chashas1 - you're absolutely correct about Herbie's Big Fat Dots under the speakers. I found that out for myself. My wifes jaw hit the floor when I removed the Herbie's. I think they're better suited for use underneath a rack. I love the tenderfee... 
Best Stand for Harbeth 7ES-3 Compact
I agree with Chasas1. I think the build quality of the Skylan's is great. I've owned metal stands before and I don't like them.I've heard of some build quality issues with the Foundations but not many. 
Budget Speakers for a small living room

Best Tube/SS Amps for Harbeth 7ES-3
For tube - Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum sounds amazing with the C7's and it's a very popular combo for hifi shops. This match was at the Montreal show this year and was well received. It was enough to sway me into buying the C7's a few months ago. I'... 
Best Stand for Harbeth 7ES-3 Compact
I own the Skylan stands for my C7ES-3's. I believe they're 20 inches. I researched stands for quite awhile on the HUG. They're great stands and look very nice. Noel from Skylan suggests filling them with kitty litter, which I did, and the speakers... 
Favorite Female vocals that give you goose bumps
Cassandra Wilson stirs my soul. 
worse entertainer or performer of all time??
Kid Rock has my vote. 
Integrated Amps with a Headphone Input
I have the Rogue Cronus Magnum and it's not very good with headphones IMO. Of course I own AKG K702's sitting on their rack collecting dust as a result. 
The most beautiful Integrated Tube amp?
The Cary SLI 80 or 300B or Audio Research VS115. Beauty is in the eye's of the beholder as others have noted. I don't think the Manley is remotely good looking and I don't think my Rogue is either. I 
Totem speakers and others that I should consider?
Mjm6...go audition some more speakers. Totem's are awesome, but it doesn't sound like you've spent a lot of time with others. If you don't audition others, you'll be very unhappy in the future. This will also give you a basis of what you might lik...
