If Power Cords Don't Matter...
I have tried this power cable with 22 gauge and 18 gauge wires as well. 22 gauge sounds etched, treble is piercing and bass is affected. (At least on my system)18 gauge sounds too thick, treble is attenuated. I don’t know exactly why this is the c... 
Audio Research and Acme Audio Labs fuse
^That^ Seems like a great reason to get a Fluke clamp style ampere meter. 
If Power Cords Don't Matter...
And you have a fantastic Litz style constructionDoes one even want Linz construction?I thought for 50 or 60 Hz, and suppressing high frequencies, that more/more capacitance and inductance would be helpful?(For speaker cables I can see it.) 
My Experience With Tekton
At least saying that they are “just a box with drivers and crossover” is somewhat more truthful and factual, than saying that they’re somewhat imbued with the magic of pixie dust.

I just let my dealer talk me into $3,500 of Synergistic Research speaker cables and power cords, so you believers better be right!Report please. 
Why so many tubes?
@jpwarren58And I am open to SS to being more complicated.You do not need to “be open to it”… just pull the lid off one, and like Rev:6 “come and see”.  
My Experience With Tekton
Exactly. thats my reason for pulging in all sorts of **~~,, and such , for innuendos and emphasis, questionable opinions, possibilities, doubts, affrimations, and perhaps for a bit of humor. Maybe people with innuendos, questionable opinions, etc...

James Baldwin is on the burn list of books for team TektonThat’s subtle, but I like where you went with it.One can probably hear a pin drop with those Textons.

Some people don't use enough punctuation. You, however, throw it around like it's raining commas.Maybe it is like a James Baldwin speech, where the punctuation is to emphasise breaks in thought?When I read it that way, it has a cadence, or gallopi...

Good questions. I was about to answer when scanning above noticed you do not trust the messenger. So no soup for you. ^Nice Seinfeld quote.^But I was giving you and others the opportunity to stay on point here with some factual input.It is the 1/... 
My Experience With Tekton
Let’s bring this back to reality a bit…What is the purpose of all the tweeters/drivers running in unison?Is it to reduce the excursion as a way to lower non-linear distortion?Or is it to make the driver appear to be coming from a point further beh... 
Hum coming from Turntable
I would run all grounds to the same point.If the cartridge is plastic or wood, then I am not sure how grounded they are??If it is inducted field, rather than a ground loop, then it can get more complicated… but moving the switching supplies to ano... 
Everything Does Seem To Matter
Man, most of you guys are way ahead of me on this stuff, but from what I’ve heard and experienced, this stuff matters. I really DO think you might be able to tune/tailor a system via cables, fuses, and treatments. The EE types usually design filte... 
My Experience With Tekton
Maybe its just me, but I dismiss anyone who doesn’t understand there is no such thing as the whole truth. The only one who knows the whole truth is God. But then you attack religion. So illogical too then. Right. Dismissed. Totally.There is a prof...
