When is digital going to get the soul of music?
Speaking of tape hiss how come one rarely hears it with CDs? I kind like at least to be able to hear it if it's there. I smell a rat. 
Is high-end audio dying, if not dead already???
The high end is pretty far behind what is possible. Just saying. 
Similar sounding bands.
Black Crows and the Stones. Duh. 
Fuses that matter.
Great question. Also, has anyone compared the Audio Horizons, Synergistic Research Red and the new improved Audio Magic Super Fuse?

Hate to be Mary, Mary Quite Contrary but I suspect if you move the speakers closer together, generally speaking, of course, the soundstage will improve, better center fill and better imaging. I suggest starting with the speakers about four feet ap...

Why do digital cables sound different?
The digital cables are carrying "analog" signals. They're all analog signals. You didn't think they were carrying 1s and 0s did you? 
Has Anyone Found Shunyata Cables Sounding Thin?

Hey, wait'll get a load of Lizzie's proclivity towards linking preamps in series. Which would dictate also linking interconnects serially I'm pretty sure. 
Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend?

The best speaker you ever heard?
I'm pretty sure it was just because they were probably using the wrong electronics with the panels as they should never sound hot. Now, electronics are something that can sound hot.

Gosh this is so cool, our brain interprets sound waves and you can tell what a system sounds like by seeing a list of components? Can we tell what a system sounds like looking at a picture? That would be cool. :-)
