Purist Audio vs. Stealth cables
Thank you all. Based on what you said I have every reason to stay with Purist. In my simple and modest system old Maximus and Colossus sound excellent and the way you described. If however I want to try expensive tube electronics in the future, I ... 
How many Lp do U have more than 5 of the Same
If she looks the other way she won't see a problem. 
Music to die to

Ten audiophile commandments
Jeans with low noise floor, right. That's a good one. 
power cable recommendation needed
I would probably first change and upgrade interconnects and speaker cables. Power cords are the final touch.

budget cart help
I like Grado sound so I would go for Gold. Whether it would be the best match with your tonearm I don't think we can know. But that's what I would try first. 
Class D vs Class A Education
Coltrane1, you are right, you are right. It could be even more interesting to say "African things" in places like, say, Paris or Berlin. But I may be wrong, I've never been to there. 
The Great Vinyl Debate
Elizabeth, you ask for punishment each time you post. 
Class D vs Class A Education
