What's causing the highs to be rolled-off?
I thought of trying Modwright with the T Sols I have again. 
What's causing the highs to be rolled-off?
Why are you adamant about keeping the PS Audio conditioner? There are other regenerators available that might prove better (Equitech, ExactPower...).Tvad (Threads | Answers)Not adamant if it turns out the decreased high end extension is the fault ... 
What's causing the highs to be rolled-off?
a couple things would help--for one--try removing ALL and ANYTHING you have by ps audio -- just eliminate it--they are filters and causing you to lose highs--e-mail me back if you like what you hear...Rothmanbrad (Threads | Answers)I've heard this...

What element was added just prior to the highs being rolled off?Tvad (Threads | Answers)I was using a 6 ft Audience pc on the BMPH integrated that was about 2 months old, which I sold -it replaced an older 5ft. Audience pc. Put back the older 5ft.... 
PS Audio Premier
Well, if your amps sound best plugged into the Premier then you may have to replace the fans. I'm not a hands on type so I would not venture this. But, it sounds like it's not too difficult. I don't blame you in wanting to stick with the configura... 
PS Audio Premier
I agree with Jsawhitlock. I have a Premier and my solid state integrated sounded best direct to the wall rather than to the Premier. My sources are all that's connected to the Premier. I've never had fan problems even when I had all my gear connec... 
worse entertainer or performer of all time??
Amy Winehouse has a substance abuse problem. Stevethe4th: you need to separate her chemical dependency and poor behavior from her ability to sing soul music, of which she has great power. When she's sober she's great. Winehouse will lose her life ... 
Bass--How much is too much?
I'm a jazz-lover so I listen to Coltrane, Miles, Monk, Rollins, etc. This is of course all acoustic bass and often not very strong, so I definitely use 2 subs in my setup, but I don't turn them up much. 
How to add links or shrink a quote in your post?
Thank you Tvad and Bdgregory. It was right under my nose.

A modern Christmas classic, fun for kids and adults, Vince Guiraldi's "A Charlie Brown Christmas." 
Modern day female jazz recommendations
Chazzbo, everyone has an opinion of course, but to mention the best modern day female jazz singers and not have Nnenna Freelon in the conversation is a huge oversight. 
Why so little Primare gear on A'gon? Bad rep?
I agree with Tvad, since you don't see much Primare gear in the classifieds, if you buy it and don't like it you'll take a hard hit on resale. Now, if you can purchase a piece new from a dealer with a return policy at a reasonable re-stocking fee,... 
First System Advice on Cables
I second bluejeans cable, which I use. 
Powering On/Off Tube CD Player Jolida JD-100
I would definitely leave the JD 100 on. Digital gear seems to sound best if left turned on at all times. When I asked on this board about leaving my tubed players on, I was advised to do so. It will take 24 -48 hours for cd players to level off at... 
Unplugging / replugging Anti Cables Changes things
I used anticables in the past. I disconnected them and re-connected them and they never sounded the same again. I only moved them slightly when I disconnected them from the back of the speakers and amp. They never returned to their previous perfor...
