| Beatles covers: better than originals? Steve Earle does a cover of "I'm Looking Through You" on his all acoustic album "Train a Comin'" that is totally amazing and in my opinion better than the orignal. That whole album rocks check it out! | |

| Best Interconnect Cables with Cary Tube Gear A general recommendation use silver cables. My best results with my old Cary 300B monos were Kimber KCAG and Ridge Street Audio MSE and Poiema. I no longer have the Cary's but still use Ridge Street interconnects and speaker cables with my tube ge... | |
| Sweetest SET Amp below $5k Probably the Cary CAD300BSE mono's, one of the sweetest amps I've ever owned. Also check out Deja Vu Audio, I have one of their PP amps and it's sweet, the SET's are magic. I'm sure there are hundreds of options out there and you'll get a ton of r... | |
| High efficiency speakers for Shindo Hey,Just for the heck of it you should try your new amp with your current speakers if you like them so much. 15 watts is more than you think, give it a try. You may be surprised. And if it doesn't work out then there are plenty of options as you c... | |

| Maddening HUMMMM Get some cheater plugs from the local hardware store for about 25 cents each and try lifting the ground on various components until you figure it out. I agree with folks above though it's probably your tv/cable box. Good luck! | |
| My comment on CD players vs. Universal DVD players I'm with you nearly all of my listening is to cd's and I love my dedicated player! If I ever move on it will almost surely be to another cd player, barring some radical acceleration in technology. I'm a very late adopter. | |
| Single binding posts on Thiel CS 6 Just use a single pair. Happy listening! | |
| Article on blind testing at CEC I just have to say it's refreshing to see an article in a major publication that doesn't reflexively take a dim view of audiophiles or dwell on the lunatic fringe of pricing. It was really quite well done if a bit pointless. | |
| Should I get the Art Audio Jota I think the amp speaker match will work well. I own a pair of Micro-Utopia's that I can drive to deafening levels with 24 tube watts. Though not exactly the same as the Mini, I'm guessing the electrical specs, sensitivity and impedance, are nearly... | |
