Tube Amps from China
I saw check out recent tube amp offerings from Jolida in Maryland. Specifically the JD-502P that is capable of using the Tung Sol KT-120 tube or even the Jolida JD-1000P amplifier. There are lots of Jolida dealers and support from the people in Ma... 
Looking for new places to buy vinyl

Best Power Cord with CD Player-
My vote is for the MAC (My Audio Cables) HC Power cord. It has helped out tremendously on the CDPs I've used them with and they won't break the bank. I think MAC also now has Source power cords that are an improvement on the HC Power cord. 
best chinese tube amp under $1k?
My vote is for the Jolida JD-502P amplifier. Can be found for under $1000 or a little over $1000 with mods straight from Jolida. It can also be used with the Tung Sol KT-120 tubes.
