Harbeth & VAC combo
I own a LIO (with DHT pre) with Daedalus and have also heard it with TAD and Devore... Excellent every time. Hard to believe this one box modular unit can beat or match separates costing much much more. Id love to have another one with small Harbe... 
Isolation Feet for Garrard 301 wood plinth
Daedalus Isolation Devices (DiD’s) is your answer. Contact Lou and ask him where best to use them... I don’t know how he got to this certain combination of woods and metals in all the right place but they really are good --and I tried Stillpoints ... 
Lampizator Atlantic?
Hi jb505,sorry no one saw this yet. I'll give it a try...1) pricing should reflect the product order but I believe your first example is it.2) check out the Atlantic discussion over on Audio Shark for answers to this one.3) there is definitely a '... 
Vandersteen
 I've heard Vandys on a handful of occasions over the years...  Many years ago I had the 3A Sigs here in my house for a demo, w/ Parasound Halo gear that I had at the time and I loved them. From what I remember, they had the sound that everyone de... 
Clear Day vs. Triode Wire Labs speaker cables
Good pick OP! I have used TWL power cords for a few years now. They bested PCs twice the cost and more --and boy did I go through some brands! I recently added the TWL speaker cables and they are much better sounding in my system than even the 'of... 
Tinnitus worries...
As far as diet and tinnitus, its not fat, its salt/sodium, alcohol and of course caffeine. And maybe what lpretiring mentioned but I have not gone down that route yet... Sodium was the big one for me. You would be surprised. Cut it out as much has... 
Preamps-Tube
I recently added a Vinnie Rossi LIO DHT Pre to my system (Daedalus, Wells Audio, Lampizator) and it sounds fantastic. The most harmonically complete sound Ive ever had. And as far as any glare or harshness, it is smooth as Ive ever heard in my roo... 
Beyond Ayre Pass and Rowland
One more for the Wells Audio Innanorata or the Innamorata Signature. Fabulous sounding amp.  
Power amp for Modwright LS100
I owned the LS 100/KWA 100se combo. Its was nice but might be a little warm for the Harbeths. I would go with something less warm than the KWA 100se or the Pass (but the .8's are not as warm as the .5's right?). If you can stretch to try the KWA 1...

Randy Rhoads. 1982. RIP  
pink Floyd dark side of the moon mobile fidelity getting closer to vinyl
Sounds like a good enforcement for the Marantz SA-11 (in s3 designation now)... Are you using the player as a transport to a DAC also, or only as an SACD to a preamp? If so, how do you like it for redbook with and/or without a DAC?

Dick's / Dave's picks
Hey all, Looks like the Betty Boards ARE indeed back in the vault! At least some of them are so far! The newest boxset has been released and the are Betty boards from July of '78 and David L. mentions it in his seaside chat about the boxset... SO,... 
Dick's / Dave's picks
ifmywordsdidglow, "It bothers me that the Dick's Picks releases do not include full shows."Out of 36 volumes of Dicks Picks there are only a few that are not complete full shows... OR are you saying, you wish they were "un-cut", meaning still havi...
