Vibration Control for Lightweight Tube Components
I would highly recommend that you look at Solid Tech Feet of Silence or Discs of Silence. I use the Feet of Silence. I have no connection with the company- but I will say that their products are an integral part of my system. Installing the FOS wa... 
Dick's / Dave's picks
Vicweast- try listening to the album Black Eyed Man by the Cowboy Junkies- it's terrific.  
Dick's / Dave's picks
Grate thread! Nice to see so many "friends" here on Audiogon. :)  I, too, prefer the shows from 71-80.  I don't think you can wrong with any Dick's/Dave's from that era. I'm not much of fan of anything the band did with Brent- unfortunately those ...

Audio Research Ref 110 vs. ARC HD220
Very much. Thanks, Dave. I wish I lived in your area so I could visit your store. I always appreciate your thoughtful answers. You make this community a better place. 
Audio Research Ref 110 vs. ARC HD220
Thanks for your input! I'll have to do a little more auditioning, but I think I'll listen a little more closely to the 110. How does using the 16 ohm taps change the sound/response of the speakers? I currently don't have that option with my curren...
