Audio Demo Equipment on You Tube
So I can listen to their gear through my crappy computer speakers and decide if I want to buy it???? 
Power cord for digital stuffs?
I would strongly encourage you to try some alternative PC's for your digital.  Every single piece of digital gear I have run in the last 10 years has been elevated in important ways by a good after market PC (EAR Acute, BADA DAC II, Audio Note 4.1... 
Esoteric A-03 power amp - suggestions on a power cord.
Depending upon budget, you might consider David Elrod's latest offering of the Master Series Gold Statement power cord.  I have a few now and love them on my gear (faster than the old Gold Statement, and great resolution - - like the focus sharpen... 
Maestro faceplate - does it make a difference?
randy-11:  have you actually tried a Maestro outlet in comparison to a Hubbell in order to speak so authoritatively?  Or are you speaking from speculation based upon assumed principles? 
Ref 3a mm decapo...best in price range ?
Tubegroover, your point about break in is well taken.  I have only heard them at the shows, and cannot say whether they were properly broken in or not - - they certainly had a little too much zing for me.  I'm guessing you must be right about the ... 
Ref 3a mm decapo...best in price range ?
I have long been a fan of Reference 3A speaker designs, loving the very minimalist crossover implementations.  I have owned their Master Reference, Dulcets, and still own original de Capo's and L'Integrales.  I think the de Capo's are great in the... 
TAD users with Elrod cabling....
Hey, Zeph!  We've talked (and I actually purchased one of your Elrod XLR cast offs when you simplified your system).  I use all Elrod Statement Gold or higher cabling for my TAD CR-1 fronted system, and I think it is a wonderful match.  The TAD's ... 
whats the very best sounding cables for realistic money
+1 on the Clear Day for speaker cables.  For the money the Double Shotguns were pretty great in my system biwiring some Vandy Quatro's from a VAC Phi 200. 
What are the more subtle sounding tube preamps?
You might want to check out the PS Audio BHK Signature preamp.  It is a hybrid preamp, with input triodes and MOSFET outputs, and I think it splits the sonic signature accordingly, which might just meet your requirements.  You can roll tubes to gr... 
Tenting home for termites
Yeah, and that camera just might catch the meth lab in action, if placed stealthily enough....... 
Did you know....?
Pretty sure it's the one with that owned the Lebaron..... 
Counterpoint SA-20
Well, for your investment, you aren't at too great of a risk.  the SA-12 was the first "high end" amp I ever owned, back in '87, and I loved it driving my Vandy 2C's.  I was tempted to move up to the SA-20, but just never took the plunge (I rememb... 
Clear Day Audio Double Shotgun speaker cables
Yep, those Double Shotguns are fine, fine cables, especially for the dough.  I changed to them for some Vandersteen Quatro's that I was running, and I was very impressed by the increased musical openness they brought - - very much as you describe,... 
Flavor of the month.
Kim K's posterior fell out of favor?  How did I miss that? 
Audiophile Humor
My favorite audio cartoon was in TAS in the early 90's, showing two bums laying in a garbage heap in Skidrow, and one is reminiscing to the other:  "I used to have a beautiful wife, a nice house, a great job.........but then I discovered that I co...
