What is DC offset on the AC power line?
Thanks. The article is rather comprehensive, and while it explains a common cause could be an old household appliance, the article does not indicate what the disadvantage (if any) would be in using a DC offset filter if you didn't have an old appl...

Cerious Technologies NEW Graphene Cables
This is why I blew this thread off weeks ago. Yeah I've read some comments from time-to-time but I posted early on there was an issue with the website which in my opinion is unbecoming of a company, no matter who good their actual product may be. ... 
$500 used CD Player Recommendations
I think you would be better served with a brand new Emotiva ERC-3 
USB Disruptor Is the Real Deal
Thank you ozzy. I often wonder if there is there any end financially to this hobby. The Mutec's are a grand a pop and you have two of them :)  
USB Disruptor Is the Real Deal
ozzy, curious as you mention you are using two of the Mutec in tandem and then an Intona before the Mutec. Would the three be connected serially? In other words computer>Intona>Mutec>Mutec>audio input usb or digital? I ask because the ... 
Pros & Cons of Buying an Integrated with Built-in DAC?
I don’t believe an integrated with a DAC is a swiss army knife, although I understand the metaphor. I have a Musical Fidelity M6Si. It includes a DAC. Overall I’m very happy with the unit as a whole. In my case I wanted an integrated and didn’t wa... 
JBL Everest DD67000 vs. Avantgarde Duo Mezzo
You're welcome whart. Honestly the JBLs are out of my league price wise but wish/dream I could ever own a pair. And yes audiolabyrinth, I too noticed that typically JBL gets no love on this site and I really can't understand why. Here is a little ... 
JBL Everest DD67000 vs. Avantgarde Duo Mezzo
whart, you raise a good point and I will concede the efficiency issue. What do yo say about the fact Harmon is also recommending a MINIMUM wattage of 100? If that is the case the type of amp may be dictated by that fact alone. 
Please recommend a $1500 SS or Hybrid integrated to pair with Silverline 17.5 monitors

JBL Everest DD67000 vs. Avantgarde Duo Mezzo
whart, according to the spec they are 96db efficient. I would consider that "crazy efficient".http://www.speakershop.com/media/document_assets/Everest_DD670001.pdf 
JBL Everest DD67000 vs. Avantgarde Duo Mezzo
No doubt the JBLs are killer. I've never heard the particular pair mentioned in this thread but have heard some other models and they are typically top notch. Not sure why Harmon chose a model of Everest DD67000'S  though. Seems to me DD75000 woul... 
I'm ready to pull the trigger on some new speakers.looking for some last minute advice
voxerama, just so you should know, there are numerous GET owners who have reported that Golden Ear has honored warranty service (albeit seldom needed) when the issue was caused by user error or the warranty has expired. In fact there is a current ... 
Have the Golden Ear Tech 7's but considering a speaker a fuller sound and also musical
