Cables with Forest Totems
AP Oval 9's. I use them with my 9100 and Model 1's with great results. 
Dedicated Lines and Wall Boxes
Albert - I understand that you either sell or have a good source for outlets. I'm getting ready to run 4 dedicated lines; 3 - 20amp 120v circuits and 1 - 20 amp 240v circuit. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Please feel fre... 
Playing dual layer SACD/CD disc on Sony DVP9000 ES
My 9000 always defaults to the SACD layer on hybrids. Appears that you may have a hardware problem. 
Dedicated Circuits/Isolated Grounds
Thanks again everyone. I think I've learned more about wiring than I ever intended to know. I'm in the process of researching outlets now (never thought I'd say that either)and it looks like I'll be using the hospital grade Hubbell #'s 8300 (125v)... 
Dedicated Circuits/Isolated Grounds
JD thanks very much for your input. I thought that I was on the right track but I think I may have confused the issue by bringing up the isolated grounds. One more question though. I was initially going to run 10 gauge wires for the 120 volt circu... 
DAC for multiple CD players?
I also have the Bel Canto DAC2 and like Koiman says with the push of a button you can switch between the two inputs. One caveat though, in your case you will have to use the toslink connection for your MF CDP since the Pioneer only has RCA's. I ha... 
Dedicated Circuits/Isolated Grounds
Thanks everyone. Nerspellsner, I am a little confused by the last sentence of your comments. I intend to use romex and hospital grade Hubbell outlets. It's my understanding that the Hubbells have an isolated ground. I also have wood studs and inte... 
Upgraded PC for Velodyne DD12
Thanks again Bbaxley. I probobly will go with the Flavor 4. I'm not really a do-it-yourselfer but I appreciate the suggestion.Regards, Mark 
Upgraded PC for Velodyne DD12
Thanks for your insight. I'm already using some vhaudio power cords on my integrated, DVD, and DAC. So the flavor 4 would be a logical choice. 
Upgraded PC for Velodyne DD12
OK over $200 (used or new) then or comments on whether the upgraded cord can really make a difference. As an aside, I recently upgraded the IC to the sub and immediately noticed an improvement in low level listening response. I'm wondering if the ... 
Cable/Interconnect Suggestions for MF X-150/Totems
I would highly recommend Oval 9’s. I used them with the X-150 and Model 1’s in an office system that I had. Currently I’m using them with my Model 1’s and a Plinius integrated in a 2nd system. IMO you can’t do better for the $$$. Would also recomm... 
Reference DACS: An overall perspective
Although it may not fall into the same class of players discussed above, I'm wondering if someone has an opinion regarding which category the MSB Gold falls into. 
Single box unit to pair w/ Plinius , Totem?
Since your post yesterday I've been reading a lot of the old posts about Modwright. Seems kind of like a no brainer. I have been wondering which player to do so thanks for your tip on the 9000 vs. the 999. Still wondering about Golfrok's experienc... 
Single box unit to pair w/ Plinius , Totem?
Thanks for the tips. Are you running your modded Sony through a Plinius and Totems as well? Coincidentally I have both the 9000es and the 999es and I’ve already given some serious thought to Modwright modifications for one or the other. Before I g... 
Single box unit to pair w/ Plinius , Totem?
It does not appear that too many people have an opinion regarding a good match up between Plinius and Totem. I just posted a similar question and then noticed your post. Since you posted a while ago I'm wondering what you may have decided or found...
