Servers: Are we there yet?
FWIW I just recently got a Synology NAS  DSJ-214 play is the model number I believe,  and it's hardwired to my modem/router via an ethernet cable. From there it communicates wirelessly to my Sonos which can be controlled from my laptop, iphone, or... 
What's up with the ridiculous offers?!?
Meh not that big a deal, I either decline or make a reasonable counter-offer. Seriously nothing to lost sleep over. 
Thiel Audio Contact??
There is a phone number and email address at the website see unsound's link above. 
I've Noticed Lately That There's Threads About Being Noticed Lately
I'm sorry but threads about being noticed are not threads at all! ;) 
I am really disappointed with the hip-hop enthusiasts on Audiogon
Tater's we are all disappointed at you for not letting the whole hip-hop rap subject alone already. 
What's up with the ridiculous offers?!?
Yes the listings are plagued with dealers and many of them run the same items over and over again,  to keep them in the new listings I suppose. Very frustrating for those of us who look at New Today every day. 
What are you favorite artists and songs to listen to on your system?
So to throw a curveball at you guys a band that many music-philes and critics turn their noses up at Phish. These guys are playing the best music of their careers right now, I'm talking live shows, and the recording quality of their shows has beco... 
A little help please
That's fantastic customer service by Audio Connection and very glad to hear you're happy with your new system! Until of course that nagging feeling sets in that things could be better if I just had, new speaker cables? A tube amp that has more pow... 
A push-pull tube design and Single-ended class A designs
As with most things it's not the topology it's who's implementing it. There are good and bad examples of both types of amps. 
Friday Night In San Francisco - best digital version
I assume he means the Dimeola/Mclaughlin/Paco de Lucia album it's a classic. I just have the plain old CD and it sounds good to me. 
Should we use ridiculously priced cables to listen to Rap?

Jazz no mistrust was implied or intended dude I promise! And yes Roly any updates? 
The one piece of gear you will never sell
I'll go with my amp, Deja Vu Audio amp, a push-pull EL34 amp putting out 17 watts per side. I love this amp especially since the Aerovox cap upgrade I did last year. It's reliable, sounds fantastic, and is cheap to retube just 4 EL34's 3 6sn7's an... 
Pass INT-30A with Acoustic Zen Adagio
@jwglista  I am with you on ribbon tweeters silk or even a good metal tweeter sounds much smoother and with plenty of highs for my ears. I will also say the Pass is relatively high end as integrated amps go but both the Primaluna and Rogue are mor... 
Pass INT-30A with Acoustic Zen Adagio
It would be helpful to know the rest of your system, cables in particular. Particularly if you are coming from tubes and are using silver cables, to make a gross generalization, the combo of SS and silver can certainly come across as bright or ana...
