| Benchmark AHB2 Power Cable Upgrade I'm using DH labs "Power Plus" cables with my AHB2 and other Benchmark components (LA4 and DAC3B). They are a very tight fit in all cases! I noticed some beneficial results with the new power cable installed in the AHB2, but not nearly as signifi... | |

| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim None of the live jazz shows I've attended were so loud that I needed ear plugs. If the group has any jazz-rock leanings, I'd probably bring ear plugs to be safe. New release from Jimmy Giuffre I like, concert from 1959. The sound is v... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim Thanks for your input! I'll probably post my dilemma in the analog forum after reviewing your links. Charles Davis is another good baritone saxophonist. You can hear him on this album: https://youtu.be/3JIlzhYs5iI?si=wSpYaZ6TJ7LG-jhC... | |
