| What selections do you play when showing off your system to others? Nora Jones Come Away With Me | |
| Which power cords have high resolutions and separation?? I built my own with Furutech components. That way I was able to get custom lengths. FWIW | |

| Cartridge burn-in When I changed my turntable and cartridge a year ago, I noticed a decided change and it only got better as I played albums for a couple of weeks. "Suffering" through the break-in was not bad at all....! | |
| Who is Gonna Buy A New Jeep Grand Wagoneer For the MacIntosh Stereo? I own a Jeep Wrangler and I own McIntosh but I see no need for McIntosh in my Jeep. The road noise it too much to really enjoy the music. The only time you could really enjoy the experience is when you are parked and then I would rather be in my a... | |

| Shave your CDs Amazing that someone spent a lot of time and money engineering and developing this thing. I did not listen to the video, just looked for a couple of minutes. | |
| Great classical pianists I just acquired a 2 LP album of Khatia Buiatishvili playing Chopin. I must say it is a superb recording. | |
| Ideal power cord lengths? I built all of my power cords myself to lengths that kept the clutter down as much as possible behind my racks. None are the same length. The ones to my conditioner and amps are heavier gauge. No clue if there is a difference over the factory supp... | |
