| Philosophy used in assembling your system? I spent several yrs trying out different pieces to get an idea of what worked best for me. Once I had established a solid reference, I further tailored the sound w/tweaks & cables.On top of all this, I threw in the occasional deal and since I ... | |
| Your Favorate JBL's from the 70's I didn't have a stereo for the middle 70's but I ran sound for a rock band & we used JBL 18's in some 4560 cabinets, along w/some Altec 18's in VOC cabinets. Or was it the other way around? Topped off w/some Emilar horns, I just thought of it ... | |
| Ever hear a power cable make a huge difference? I just read the info that these are named after Nikola Tesla. I have some thoughts on that, the first being those are some big shoes to fill. I'm also reading into this that since Tesla did not get the credit he should have, that these are meant t... | |

| Is there a optimum lenght for power cables? All your power cords need to be of unequal length, so the magnetic radiational patterns don't overlap and contribute to an increased electron pull, which is directly related to molecular stabilization.

| lack of interest I'd have to agree that the market isn't hot right now. I'm guessing tax time has people taking a bigger hit plus the cost of gas has people thinking they can't afford spending on audio. | |

| Replace or Repair Adcom GFA-565's I had a pair of 565's for 7 or 9 yrs and since that time, have had over 10 amps in my system. I now run BAT amps.If you're going to get them repaired, you might want to get them upgraded at the same time. | |
| How do you pay? Why? I usually pay with a tellers check from my credit union, unless another form of payment is requested. As for receiving funds, if it’s a USPS MO, I just go to the PO & cash it there. If cashing a bank draft, MO, personal check, etc, I go to tha... | |
| How significant is a power cord upgrade? Those who hear a difference with expensive power cords can choose to purchase them without admonishment from those who don't hear a difference, and those who don't hear a difference with expensive power cords can choose to not use them without rep... | |
| Audio Research Cheap as Dirt? Had an LS-9 & it was a good sounding unit-it would be my pick. If I were looking for an "inexpensive" preamp, I would get an Acurus LS or RS-11. | |
| How far would you drive to audition a component? The furthest I've gone to audition was 100 miles but I've gone much further to pick-up/deliver gear. I took a trip a few months ago & delivered some spkrs, picked up a tuner & then picked up another pair of spkrs for a friend. I also stopp... | |

| What has been your most satisfying component? I just acquired another Pass Aleph P, after having sold an original version right at 3 yrs ago. This is one of the last made (2/00) w/remote & it sounds better than I remember. I had the first one about 3 1/2 yrs. & only sold it to try oth... |
