Why can I feel vibration when I touch my network switch or streamer?
+1 @allanblissett   I have my switch and modem sitting on a Townshend platform, with their power supplies neatly tucked underneath.  
$8k for speakers - new or used
+1 @jasonbourne71   Revel Salon 2's while you can find them.  Used should be about 9K.  We agree this time!  :)

Recommendations for 20 amp electrical outlets
Per my dealer, I avoided the Furutech fancy outlets.  I have a total of six dedicated 10a circuits with 10 gauge wires (two systems).  I have a pair of Shunyata's and four PS Audio.  I can not hear a difference.  They both grip well, although I ha... 
A Noob Asking About Power Cables
+1@mesch!   A good integrated amp would start to give you the sound improvement you desire.  There are many choices...pick a budget.  And yes your tv likely does have optical output.  I abandoned surround sound in favor of good 2 channel and is so...

Questions re. use of an Innuos unit with a Tambaqui
Hello @aubullience,  Congrats on the tambaqui!  I own two; one stand alone in my main system and a Makua preamp with onboard Tambaqui in my family room.  Both sound amazing and I love them.  I have had many other DACs that I have owned or have had... 
Need Opinions for Different Cable Manufacturers/Cable Designs
Kubala Sosna Elation would be amazing.  They are much fuller than the Audience Au24SX I previously had and extrmely resolving.  Also easily bests the Silnote for me.  
My termination is wrong, clearly, how do I fix it?
Hello @p_s  I believe you remove the clear plastic.   It is there to give the set screws something to hold on to until you install them.    
Can hi-end cables benefit less expensive electronics?
Sweet.  Cheers!  
Can hi-end cables benefit less expensive electronics?
Hello @mceljo,  I was just funning at @1971gto455ho about cables making no difference!  Probably should just keep my mouth shut, but said it in fun.  BTW amazing car! I guess my obscure point was that we should NOT just all drive a Prius and use ... 
Can hi-end cables benefit less expensive electronics?
kind of like all that noise out of say a 455 HO V8 compared to a modern twin turbo V6 with electric boost?  Just :)  
Can hi-end cables benefit less expensive electronics?
BTW, in one system, where I have a 20 and 30 foot run from amps on the side to speakers, I have made speaker cables from Furutech FS alpha 36 wire and Furutech Gold Spades.  They are excellent.  They replaced generic 8 gauge  copper wires that I a... 
Can hi-end cables benefit less expensive electronics?
I think different cable types also interact with different levels of equipment. As @soix  said, a good digital cable can help any system or digital front end.  Similarly, I have never heard a nicer power cable cause detriment, but always improve o... 
Looking to downsize and for suggestions for amp(s)
I love my Audionet amps, I have both Maxs and Heisenbergs, but they are large. For a small SS amp that i found amazing checkout WestmisterLab: https://www.westminsterlab.com/rei
