AQ vs Siltech vs Tara vs Van den hul shootout
I own Python, but the best I ever heard, and someting that an old crusty dealer once mentioned to me was a combination of AQ Diamond x3 and Cardas Golden Reference. THese cables are both excellent, but together (if possible) are the best thing I h... 
speaker match with rogue audio
I own Nautilus 805s, and use a Rogue Tempest fed from a Rega Planet via Audioquest Python IC with a BMI Eel on the amp and Audioquest SA-40(silver) double runs on the speakers. I really really really love this setup. In my opinion, the 805 is a tr... 
Best Used Integated 1400 for B&W CDM1NT's
Hi,I own Nautilus 805s, and have found them to really work well with tubes. At first I had a CJ preamp and McCormack DNA.5, then went to "Rev A". This was good, but then went to a AudioPrism Debut (Now Red Rose Music $$$), incredible midrange, but...

B&W Nautilus Tweeter Grills - Lose 'em
Dem, what are the dots, who sells them, and did you find that the tweeter grills off sounded better than on (without the dots)?

Audio Refinement Complete integrated amp. The removal of the tweeter grils is really, really easy, I just went through alot of trouble to find out how easy it is. I can't say enough about how much smoother it sounds without the metal grill in fron...
