Jw Signature Interconnects
Glad to hear that you had a similar experience as I have with these cables. They do not appear to have a cult following on Audiogon but they sure deserve one given their performance. It may be that given their modest cost that it is hard for hardc... 
Jw Signature Interconnects
Had the name of the company wrong - it is Jw Audio Signature..... 
Interconnects: solid or hollow core wire?
I really like the solid core sound. I have JW audio cryoed speaker cables and interconnects. The speaker cables are stunningly good and cost uner a hundred bucks; the IC's are very good and are acquiting themselves nicely in my refence system. 
Review: Jw audio interconnect and speaker cables
Bigshutterbug - glad to know that my ears are not fooling me,lol....I don't mind spending a some bucks to get good gear but every now and then there is a disruptive product that gives great perfomance but costs very little. 
"Great RCA interconnects under $100?"
yes, absolutely. JW Cryo interconnects are excellent. 
Need recommendations on speaker cables
I would echo the JW Audio cryo speaker cables. I just bought an 8 foot pair; my system is an Audio Van Alstine 250 wpc heavily modded hybrid amplifier, EAR pre-amp, Emerald Physic CS 3 speakers, locally made subwoofer, Balanced Power technology mo... 
Tube Audio Design HIbachi-II amps with Maggie 1.6?
His latest amps work very well with the Magnepan 1.7's in my system. 
Review: Tube Audio Design Hibachi Monoblocks TAD 125 Amplifier
Vett93 - I have the Fet-valve 250 wpc hybrid amplifier; it is about 14 years old. It has been significantly modded and has bybees installed. It was a fine amplifier in stock form. Modded it is a killer amp. 
Connectting Alesis 9600 to BAT VK32-SE
I too have an Alesis and plan to use it for recording vinyl. Can you connect the phonostage outputs directly to the inputs of the Alesis or is the only/better way to run the preamp tape out into the Alesis inputs? 
good amp for Maggies?
I have had great luck with three amplifiers - an Audio Van Alstine 250 wpc FETvalve hybrid ampflifier (heavily modded, including bybees), Canary CA-160 tube monoblock amplifiers, and Tube Audio Design Hibachi monoblock amplifiers.I was persuaded t... 
Atma-Sphere MA 1's Amps and Magnepan 1.7's
Thanks Audiokinesis and Ghs. My Canary CA-160's sounded very nice on the Mags. 
Canary ca-160 monoblocks - opinions please
My Canary CA-160 monoblocks have been modded by RHB Soundezign. They drive my Magnepan 1.7's magnificently. Excellent sound... 
Review: Tube Audio Design Hibachi Monoblocks TAD 125 Amplifier
Oranda - my comment that caught your attention is in relation to the hyperetched, razor-like presentation of some solid state amps. The Hibachi monoblocks avoid this; in an absolute sense there is no rounding off of the sound. In the relative sens... 
Canary preamp experiences?
I have the Canary monoblock pre-amplifiers and they were very good in stock form I had the modded by Bob and Gary Backert of RHB Soundezign and they turned them into phenomenal pre-amps. Exceptionally clean and clear sound with great imaging (dept... 
Review: Tube Audio Design Hibachi Monoblocks TAD 125 Amplifier
Hello Frank - you very well may be right. I agree with the often overlooked synergism factor - some equipment just mates a lot better with one piece than another. The Wyred 4 S amp I had was lower powered and, in the same system, was not as dynami...
