Power cables
Not as much as a nagging (ex) wife.  
Audience Au24se vs Au24sx cables
Thanks Jafant.  According to Audience, they are cooked at the factory and need 10 to 20 hours to settle down.  I'll keep them connected for another week or so and make my final decision. Trust me, I really want to like these cables!! 
Audience Au24se vs Au24sx cables
About 20 hours of listening.  With my rig, the similarities between Nordost Frey2 and the Audience Au24sx are striking.  The midrange performance seems to be the sweet spot with the Au24sx. The Transparent Reference is the runaway favorite for me.... 
Accuphase Integrated Amp - E600 or E470
The Accuphase should be here in two weeks.  I will keep you posted. 
Audience Au24se vs Au24sx cables
Hi Jafant.  I am using Tellurium interconnects and power cords.  
Audience Au24se vs Au24sx cables
I just received my set of Au24sx  speaker cables today.  Looking forward to some A/B/C comparisons with Nordost Frey 2 and Transparent Reference. 
Accuphase Integrated Amp - E600 or E470
You are correct, the Luxman is a Class A amp with 30 Watt output. I will soon see if its a sideways move.  I just ordered an E-470 to see if they make an appreciable difference with my B&W 803 speakers. 
Accuphase Integrated Amp - E600 or E470
Interesting question noelpastor.  I am wondering the same thing.  The E600 will definitely sound sweeter due to the Class A configuration.  I have been toying with the idea of looking in to an E470 due to the increased output over my Luxman L-590A... 
Luxman vs. Accuphase
Andysf,I'm glad you decided to get a Luxman.  I remember your initial post regarding the brand. Enjoy! 
Ypsilon Phaethon
Sksos - I have had my speakers since November.  They are wonderful and are a huge improvement of the previous generation. I did not spent a lot of time with the 802s are they were beyond my budget at that time.  Do they sound better?  Perhaps a bi... 
What's up with the ridiculous offers?!?
I just sold a bunch of stuff this week. I countered low-ball offers with DECLINE and reasonable offers with counter offers.  I ended up with between 85% to 90% of my asking price for all items. I was was happy with outcome and it was rewarding not... 
Tellurium Q Black Diamond cables
Sorry. Meant Jafant.  
Tellurium Q Black Diamond cables
Jayant, i couldnt tell you. They are certainly worth a demo though.  
Tellurium Q Black Diamond cables
Cellorover - thanks for the input. All demo cables and power cords had well in excess of 500 hours each.  As mentioned in my post, I was expecting the speaker cables to be the most dramatic by way of improvement.  Unfortunately, they were not.  I ... 
Tellurium Q Black Diamond cables
I kept the Tellurium Q interconnects and the power cords.  I was not enamored with the speaker cables.  I am auditioning Transparent Reference speaker cables right now and next week, the new top of the line Audience cables.
