RidgeStreetAudio Poiema 3 IC'S?
Does it get any better than the Poiema!!! interconnects? I'm blown away after only 2 days of listening. My search is over and the RSAD Poiema's will connect my entire system, once I get the funds! 
CD Player: "Love at First Listen" recommendation
My Ayre CX7e. Blew me away, and still does. 
Best female vocals on CD
Grace Slick, "Hey Frederick" from Volunteers. 
Please suggest serene, restful jazz recordings
Earl Klugh? Pretty tame, mellow stuff. 
Turntable mats
Herbie's works very well on my MMF-7. Tightened up the bass and darker background. I actually don't use the clamp anymore with this mat. 
Best guitar explosion of all time
I'll agree with VanHalen's "Eruption". Crank this up and it doesn't get much better for sheer metal.

Tubes Became Microphonic

Best short-lived band?
Mother Love Bone 
Best Dead Shows on DVD?????????
Truckin to Buffalo is worth owning. Killer "All along the watchtower" 
DEADHEADS...TOP 5 SHOWS.....
I have the cassette of Englishtown. Obviously haven't listened to it in years, but remember it to be killer. I think it's one of Dick's Picks.I need to get CD. Lehigh Univ back in '81 was pretty awesome. (at least I think it was '81) 
DEADHEADS...TOP 5 SHOWS.....
The Dick's Picks Oklahoma Fairgrounds show is pretty awesome. A must have for any Deadhead. Killer China Cat/Rider and Eyes. 
Neil Young at Massey Hall
Just brought this home. Holy crap. It's amazing. I couldn't believe the quality of the sound. Real quiet background, Neil was in my living room. I'm sure my new-to-me Ayre CX-7e had a little to do with it!
