Nordost resolution, soundstage and clarity with Wireworld Bass Slam?
You'll get many many suggestions I'm sure.I haven't had much luck with entire looms myself.Why not mix some Nordost in with your WW?Maybe an ic and a power cord then move them around in your system and see what happens and go from there. 
Should the power be off every time changing cables?
Definitely turn them off. 
Difference in sound between copper and silver digital cables?
I've been trying different digital cables over the past three months.A couple of them were OCC silver which to me sounds too soft and smooth as opposed to Kimber which was edgy and harsh.Furutech (copper) was decent but somewhat smeared the music.... 
Which of these power cords ?
I've got 2 Wire World Electra 7 pcs that I'm not using right now.If you'd like to try them pm me.Just pay shipping. 
My stereo receiver is a little too bright. Can a cable help me out?
I had a little 20 watt Pioneer receiver back in the day.It was never bright at all, even straight out of the box.Maybe those " new fangled" parts do need to run in some:-) 
TV / Movies worth Listening To
Sometimes there's some excellent music on a movie soundtrack that isn't listed in the credits.It just says "music by so and so" and I can't seem to locate it on Google.I found a couple of decent artists from "Walking Dead" ,Lee DeWyse and Ben Howard. 
Los Angeles - Who is up for a w/e Subwoofer demo?
Kenjit  is just mad and acting out because his mom said he couldn't go to Erik's house. 
Analysis Plus Solo Crystal Oval 8...OMG!!
Dave from Zenwave sent me several ics and a digital cable to try.Surprisingly his two top of the line cables were not a good fit at all.Others have reported how detailed and reference quality they are so I had great expectations.I loved the D1 whi... 
What is your experience with legacy CH Acoustic cables?
I agree that a really good pair of speaker cables will show exactly what an amp and speakers are capable of.Plus that will let you hear what is good and bad upstream so you can evaluate and address any issues. 
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone!!

Seasick Steve -Man From Another Time 
6SN7 variants circa 2019 - tone, longevity, reliability, value
I've only used three brands because of $$$.Tung Sol-clean,clear,dry,'modern sound'.Sylvania chrome top- softer than TS but bland.Sofia Blue-warm and detailed,my favorite.No problems or failures with any of them.The Sylvanias were a little grainy u... 
What is your experience with legacy CH Acoustic cables?
I never heard of CH Acoustic so googled it and read a Positive Feedback review about them.The review reminded me so much of auditioning an ic from Audio Sensibility(Statement se, OCC silver).Really beautiful,detailed,but too soft for my taste.My p... 
Slight hum from SLI-80 power amp
Some people are able to solve a ground loop problem by lifting all of the grounds with cheater plugs except for one.IN THEORY everything is hooked together with only a single ground and you should be safe from being electrocuted in case of a short... 
Slight hum from SLI-80 power amp
You already swapped the speaker cables,right?Then swapped the interconnects?Take the sub/subs out of the system and see what happens.Take away the source leaving just pre and amp.Next just try the amp and speakers together with no pre or source.Yo...
