What is the Best Sounding Stand Mount Speaker in the world?
That is an absurd question. It took me 3 years to build the 2 systems I have in the house, both rooms were so completely different. I had several sets of Dynaudio speakers in my main listening room, and have chosen the Confidence 20 as my my main ... 
One dedicated circuit for each mono block?
I have one 20 amp circuit feeding my Saturn 103C power conditioner. I also plugged a 20 amp SR orange fuse in it. From there both of my Sugden Mono blocks plug into the power conditioner. The sound is articulate crystal clean and ZERO NOISE...  
Power conditioner vs use of a audio grade outlet?
I have a Saturn 103C conditioner, that was an amazing upgrade in itself. I have all Wire Work silver electra 7 power cables. The icing on the cake was a dedicated 20 amp circuit with a Cardas Audio 4181US wall outlet. Best money I ever spent. You ... 
Audiolab 6000CDT
I have 2 systems in my house, and have the 6000CDT on both with a high quality DAC. The sound quality is amazing.   
Sugden LA-4 review....the missing link
I have had an LA-4 for many years, I love it. It was first paired with a Sugden SPA_4 power amp, I now have it paired with the Sugden MPA-4 Mono blocks. Incredible control.  
Power conditions for Integrated Amps
I had a Furman, and i didnt like the results. I now have a Saturn 103C on both of my systems, and everything is plugged into it. dead quiet ZERO noise. The Saturn are capacitor based. I opened them up and had a look. all caps.  
Just received my new Dynaudio Contour 60i in walnut
I ha a set of Contour 20i speakers, i loved them and felt they were going to be my end game speaker. Then my dealer made me a trade deal on his Demo Confidence 20's. These will be my end game speaker now. The confidence series is a next level spea... 
Amp & Pre or Integrated for Dynaudio Heritage Special
Not my cup of tea, but the bigger  Hegel amps pair well with Dynaudio. I find the Hegel amps to be very flat and neutral.   
Which Solid State amplifier would you recommend for my budget?
Look at the Kinki Studio EX-M1 great amp 265 wpc i added a $300.00 sparkos op amp kit, and that made the amp sound even closer to Class A  
Mono block Sonic difference $5k vs $25k
I have Sugden MPA - 4 Class A mono blocks, Around $15K for the pair they are my end game amps.  
Which power cords have high resolutions and separation??
I have all Wireworld Silver Electra 7 cables with reference ends on all my gear, i am very happy with the overall sound. My dealer gave me 3 different Wireworld power cords to try for a week, and i found the one that suited my ears best.  On my s... 
Do speaker cables really make a difference ?
I hate to sound Prickish, But i have learned that the better the audio gear, the more noticeable changes are to the ears. Once i stepped up to more higher end gear as in components, the cables made more of a difference to me. Stepping up in compon... 
New Sugden mono blocks have arrived.
I also have the Sugden IA-4 as a second system in the basement. Its a great little amp. I had the SPA-4 upstairs with the LA-4 Pre. I sold the SPA-4 to fund the mono blocks. So far they are incredible. the control is insane over a single power amp.  
Which pair of speakers changed your Hifi life?
I have 2 systems in my house, the upper, I have Dynaudio Confidence20 speakers, and the basement I have Capriccio Continuum ad monitor 311 speakers. Both sets are my end game speakers.  
Recommend me a Class A Integrated Amp (or sound like Class A amp)
I have a soft spot for Sugden ClassA amps. I have an IA-4 in the basement, and I just bought a pair of Sugden MPA-4 mono blocks for my main listing room. I sold my Sugden SPA-4 power amp and kept the LA-4 pre amp. I did however have a Kinki EX-M1 ...
