Omega Amp Opinions?
Much difference between sound of Omega or Omicron? 
Ken Burns' JAZZ starts Monday on PBS!
The series will be flawed, Marsalis is conceited--a fabulous technician of limited musicality--but it's better than nothing. See the dissing of the series by the great W. Balliet in the New Yorker.

Dedicated Power line
I put in dedicated lines. Sorry, but almost no matter what, in my experience, the tubed phono stage will pick up RFI. But put in the dedicated lines because they'll help the system sound better.

Anyone Heard/Use API Power Wedge 116?
Forget it. The only thing that works is the PS Audio power plant. www.psaudio.com. See Stereophile reviews.
