Speakers that disappear
+1000 to everyone who mentioned synergy. I have a story for you from last week. A friend owns a number of speakers. Focal Utopia Scala Evo, Dynaudio Confidence 60 and Dali Epicon 8. This story is about the Dali. He is fortunate to have access to... 
Danish Lust
I did check with one and they only had a demo Z5 cryo out of the three I want to try. They keep asking for me to come in despite my request and statement that I only want to demo the X6 and other two. I asked twice to let me know when they have th... 
Accuphase Experiences
So many d-bags on this site...  While videos are not the same as in person, you can still compare the sound between amps on the same channel provided the mic is the same. I have been doing it for years with 100% success in terms of identifying pi...

@atmasphere I would love if you could try the two tracks I mentioned with your various amps and report findings. Maybe PM me? I am super curious.   
Gallium Nitride GaN Class D Amplifiers
@atmasphere Respect and regards to you and to Alberto. Please, it is not bass I am referring to but low-end reverb(?). The two tracks I previously mentioned involve a synthesizer and organ, not bass guitar or other. I own a pair of REL 212SX and ...

I owned the AGD Gran Vivace and they were spectacular. I had an Aesthetix Calypso linestage (tube) preamp in the chain and it was the best sound I've had in my room to date, save for one aspect - low end (reverb). Back to this in a second... what ... 
Borresen Loudspeakers
@woots Congrats on the X1s! The X6s are on my short list but I need to hear them. They are the main reason I am going to AXPONA this year. Were the X6s demoed as well? If so, how did they compare?

++ Aesthetix and Backert. Currently own the Calypso and have heard the Rhumba Extreme. Outstanding linestages.  
Puritan Ultimate Power Cable
A second 156 is on the way with three more ultimate cables. I found my PC solution. Absolutely fantastic in my chain.   
Outlets and Wire Gauge? - Please help!
@jea48 Happy to report that both runs were installed with your recommended Leviton 5362-W and the result is better than expected. I should have done this years ago. Despite an hour, plus of research, I cannot find a single outlet equivalent  of th... 
Outlets and Wire Gauge? - Please help!
Does my PC need to rated for 15A? I would think any quality after market would be?  My PP20 charts draw, which is super cool. I was able to see my 30WPC Accuphase A36 pulling 300W, which became 360W when my friend brought over his Accuphase pream... 
Outlets and Wire Gauge? - Please help!
The install was just completed and I am now afraid to connect my gear. Both my PS Audio PowerPlant 20 and Puritan Labs PM156 both say it is okay to connect to a 20A outlet, but the labels on the back of each read 12A Max and 15A, respectively. I h... 
Outlets and Wire Gauge? - Please help!
@erik_squires  I too am in MA, western MA. @jimf421 My electrician mentioned my new runs being on isolated grounds. Like Erik, I too am in IT but spent three summers in my youth renovating turn of the century houses where I had to replace all el... 
Outlets and Wire Gauge? - Please help!
@jea48 I uploaded a photo of the panel to my system.You can see it under my profile. I do not worry too much about this. The electrician plans on rearranging some things. He may be adding a sub panel for this.  I only listen at night when the fa...
