ASC traps vs. REALTRAPS ????????
One of our fellow Audiogoners (Teres, aka Chris) is not only a genius, but he has an extremely good website. http://www.teresaudio.com/haven/ if you scroll down you will find a link to hid DIY tube traps. If you have a little ability you can build... 
Aesthetix Calypso vs ARC LS25 MK2
Jupiter, Saturn, aka California. Jafox, if you don't behave yourself I'm going to have to kick you in Uranus next time I'm over. 
Dunlavy SC IVa or B&W 802
No competition in my mind. Dunlavy! As a matter of fact, I have watched the prices of the Dunlavy IVa and V models since they closed the doors. The first two years showed a small reduction in resale value, but now they have risen above the prices ...

Aurios MIB Pro vs. Pro-Max?
My understanding is it's a replacement. I too have been curious about how they preform against the Pros, I personally have found the performance of the 1.2 is quite a step down from the pro...jd 
Review: Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage Tube preamp
Paul, I hope your still checking into this thread. I have tried now four separate times to write you back, but I am receiving a delivery delay and/or failure message. I'm so sorry I can not get back to you directly. To contact Jim White go to the ... 
Cable auditions - Hard Work?

Cable auditions - Hard Work?
Yuri, I am sick of this ^%$# out of your mouth. You stand on your soap box telling us “folks” to listen to you because your Toys ‘R Us system can not discern the difference in Sonics between different cables and components. Then you “dare” me to c... 
Cable auditions - Hard Work?
Yun, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah! That's all I hear. 
Sade - The Best of......
Thank you for the review. I first heard Sade in 1985(?) and finally discovered how to spell her name on a vacation in Hawai while resting in our room after too much sun. The children's programing we were watching (with my son) had Sade as the sing... 
Herbie's Hal-O tube dampener's on Calypso?
Mr. man of no mistakes; I think the feeling of closed in may be an illusion created through a rounder more human image to the edge of instruments and voices on the soundstage. With the dampers there is a slight lessening of the "cut out" appearanc... 
Review: Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage Tube preamp
I must take a second to thank you Tim for the extremely kind thoughts. I doubt I'll ever have the opportunity to write for any magazines or E-review sites because I have not pursued it. I enjoy this hobby more than anything I am able to due given ... 
Herbie's Hal-O tube dampener's on Calypso?
Hi Perfecto man,I just received four of Herbie's tube dampers a couple weeks ago. This is the first of the four products I have tried that were a step forward. The others gave me little or no improvement and the Mapleshade brass dampers were horri... 
Cable Costs Relative to System
Excellent description of some extremely complicated topics put into terms even I could understand. After reading for most of the day through papers coming from Rice University and spin off company profiles into nanotechnology I see the excitement ...
