| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? I A/B'd the Extreme 2's against the Revelation 1's in my system - I think after doing so that I might like the Extreme's a smidgen more - to my ears the MK 2s seemed little more detailed with maybe slighly more separation - enjoy both though | |

| Cable & Interconnects for a Plinius 9200 ICs Audio Metallurgy - GA2 or GA 0's - used them with my 8200 - auctions run on Agon; Speaker cable - Signal Cable -Ultra; Power Cord - Audio Art Power 1 (for me the only PC that has made an audible difference in its relative price range). | |
| Can excellent tubes transcend modest amps? Not the expert, but you can put moderately priced NOS tubes in moderately priced well built amps and take the musical enjoyment up a seveal notches | |
| Do I need a power cable - if so what brand? Take a look at Audio Art Cable power cords - only one that made a noticable difference in my system at a reasonable price | |
