I'm the the opposite position of not having enough room in my room. I run the Sopra 2's in my 9x13 music room. Highly recommend the Sopra's. You won't need to be moving chairs and couches around to enjoy them. Every speaker has it's limitations an... 
PS Audio Stellar Phono
@revdeg now that's a screaming recommendation if I've ever heard one. Also, I'm sure the SE is superior, but that much Superior? To knock a $3k phono off its throne? Now I'm really interested. I'm going on a limb and looking at an Allnic 1205 now... 
Yet Another Post About Power Conditioners!
I'm with @dvddesigner knowing Caelin's background and what he does for the science community as well as their openness to discuss their products should give you comfort. They are far from snake oil and should be the last one on the list of "snake ...

I've really been interested in the software, but I can't justify the price. Even the Wally Tools seem extremely expensive, but I am interested. I'm sure it's not cheap to develop the tools and put all those years of knowledge into a product, but m... 
Seeking recommendations about material, design, makers of low-lying rack for gear
I've always been a fan aesthetically of Maple Shade. Check their stuff out if you haven't.  
Tornado and Thunder Power Cables
The AQ thunders are great. I have one on my regenerator and it makes a huge difference. The ones above who think that power cables don't make a difference when you have a "good" power supply, is severely mistaken and hasn't bothered to attempt it ... 
Vinyl Buyers: The Premium Price Vinyl v. Cheap Vinyl Ratio
My newer pickup of Lou Reed Transformer on Speakers Corner is fantastic and a modern pressing. So, I don't think the adage of "older pressing are better". Plus, modern music by smaller artists on labels that care about their output is becoming mor... 
Speakers Damaged via FedEx, A Neverending Love Story
@twoleftears thank you for the link. That is awesome. A little bit of pressure should hopefully help. I'll be dealing with them today so I will keep this all in mind when I call.  
Speakers Damaged via FedEx, A Neverending Love Story
@missioncoonery I'd believe a states attorney will definitely speed things up. I've even heard of people contacting a local attorney. If this doesn't remedy itself by the end of the week I will definitely be contacting someone.@noromance from now ... 
Are Fall Sales Leveling Out in the Used Market?
There's definitely been a push to get gear up on agon just this past week. I've been seeing inventory that I particularly want showing up and I check often so things do look to being up for sale.  
USPS records delivery delays
I haven't had a slow order in months from media mail. Last super slow issue I've had was ordering a special variant only available in Australia and that taking 6 months to get here to the states.  
Audiophile Priorities and Recent Topics
@jjss49 I'm with you on the stickies threads that should be available. As I am newer and not an engineer, some of the terms like capacitance or tube heaters require varying sources to understand and dig through and is very easy to get lost in in a... 
Manley Chinook to Aesthetix Rhea Signature?
@noromance that's exactly why I'm not considering it sadly. I'd love to own one and had my chance, but here we are. I guess it may just be a dive in and see or wait for something interesting to pop up! Any other suggestions I'm open to. Man there'... 
Manley Chinook to Aesthetix Rhea Signature?
@noromance that's one the one I was eyeing. I'm not sure I'd be willing to spend that much for a new model to be completely honest.  
Manley Chinook to Aesthetix Rhea Signature?
@tomic601 likewise my friend. That custom faceplate on the Herron looks damn good!Hana Umami is in the cards, but I enjoy bourbon too much to purchase one at the moment. I'd definitely like to put my Hana up against at Keseki Blue soon though. So ...
