A friend told me JBL DD67000 is actually very bad speaker, is it true?
I would put my modified Hartsfields up against anything😄  
Heat in class A equipment
I wouldn't worry, that's not hot for Class A. Don't stack!  
What went bang, smelled of "I'm fried", yet left it in working order...???
+1 for capacitor and yes use your nose to find the damaged component. Tubebuffer, you still crack me up and yesterday too.🤣

Louder than your Magico's! Not that Magico is bad at all, but not everyone can afford Magico like you...?  
How many SACD / Blu-ray audio / DVD audio / etc do you own?
The blu-ray concerts are some of my favorites. It’s like being there for a very low price! Listen in stereo, not surround sound. CAN WE GET AUDIOGON TO MERGE ALL THESE DOUBLE THREADS?  
Class A: Accuphase vs Pass Labs house sound?
Yeah, I have a couple V-fet amps. Nice smooth sound with great detail.! I'm working on a complete rebuild of two B3's now. The B2's are also excellent, but not for your average enthusiast.   
Solid state amp recommendations for Maggies?
McIntosh, the 600 watt per channel beast. I don’t remember the model number, but @g_nakamoto has one. MC2600 - killer!

Have you seen Mike Lavigne's, wow. I lost the link to the article with pix while it was being constructed.

I'm guessing your temp measurements are in degrees F, not C?  
Playing CDs sounds better than Qobuz — dammit
Yes CD's beat any streamers I've heard regardless of the DAC used. Convenience is not there yet. Best wishes.  
Advice needed on power cables, wall warts, conditioning, electrical outlet
No on Rhodium outlets, the Acme Audio 20 amp silver outlet is much better than Rhodium anything. Silver has the lowest resistance and the 20A grips like hospital grade for much less. I'm not a fan of Furman, Audioquest is much better. What I've le... 
What do you think is the best integrated amplifier under 1000
There are many older amps sound excellent. One of my favorites are Sony and Yamaha V-fets. Depends a lot on the type of sound you like and how loud you listen.  
Recording with bass to align my subs with my speakers
I think there is something wrong with Agon, as many posts from the "regulars" are duplicated.
