Let's talk power cords
I just wanted to say how awesome Chris Venhaus has been to deal with. I made a mistake as I mentioned on my initial order, Chris got back to me the very next day and refunded my money same day. He gave me advice on what cord matched my budget whic... 
Speaker Suggestions for 300b SET Amp
Agreed Atmasphere is very transparent, no pun intended, and very helpful with many technical questions that arise. I've heard and enjoyed his gear at shows and he obviously know of what he speaks. And Charles your typo, "lesions of members" absolu... 
need advice for sound improvement
+1 10m speaker cables are crazy long shortening them and adjusting speaker positioning should help immensely. 
Question about Audio Note E SPe HE
writeface according to my dealer Vu he finds the Spe bright and prefers the LX. He says you need to go up to the Spx to avoid the brightness. Again that's just his opinion but I trust his ears implicitly.  
Question about Audio Note E SPe HE

If everything sounds the same then why are we here? To the OP don't trust anyone's opinion or ears but your own. Listen and make your own judgements. 
Issues with AudiogoN forum website, anyone?
Actually they've been having issues with the Ad pages too lately two different servers I guess both have been acting up. Great communications with Tammy as always and they are on the issue. 
"1997 Vintage" REL Powered Subwoofer started making loud humming
20 years is a very long time quite impressive. The amp at the least probably needs to be recapped that could solve the problem. You may also want to get it generally reconditioned if REL offers that sort of service.

Ok take two, with gracious assistance from Chis Venhaus, Furutech FP-S032N with gold FI-11 connectors! Well within my budget, sub $500, and still very excited!

Why buy used indeed is this not a website for selling used equipment? As Elizabeth correctly points out it's a great way to essentially home audition amps with little financial loss. I daresay many of us here have used that exact strategy over the...

@samac Ha disregard my message which I deleted I never bought the connectors themselves! No wonder it seemed like such a good deal back to the drawing board on that idea.
