Other factors affecting sound
Hubbel receptacles look decent, not sure what Industrial vs. Hospital grade is. On amazon you can get them quite cheap, $20-40.

Considering ditching 5.1 for a soundbar; suggestions?
I was debating to have a sound bar in my bedroom. I got the Vifa Copenhagen from Ebay for under 1k. It sounds ok. I was also considering Dali Katch 2. Now I wanna get the LS50 wireless 2 to serve as 2 ch and TV stereo sound.

Ive bought a few items from Russia, solid transactions with reputable feedbacks. I haven't had the chance to test the PSVANE 845 yet. Will try tonight.  
McIntosh Tube vs SS w/ Sonus Faber Aida II
Better is subjective. Nothing wrong with having a starting point. Mac has the best resale value so it’s ok to experiment. This is a journey, let him explore and experiment and decide what’s best.  
Cremona M
it all depends what type of sound you're looking for, can you elaborate ? SF cremona M are older and have classic SF warm sound they will sound even warmer with a Mac, which is fine if that's what you like I have SF elipsa SE with SS Mac and I lov... 
McIntosh Tube vs SS w/ Sonus Faber Aida II
You certainly can't go wrong with the all Mac system. I am sure it will sound amazing. Mac and SF go hand in hand and have amazing synergy. The amps are incredible, you have the best of both worlds, SS to low end and sweet tube sound for the mid a...
