System set up in front of corner Vs flat wall - acoustical issues?
Lots of systems u see speakers maybe 2 feet from the walls and then some room u see them coming out 8 feet from the walls. I guess there’s a lot to be said byreally pulling out the speakers if your room can handle it  
VAC preamps - too expensive?
Vac amplifiers are over priced.  
VAC preamps - too expensive?
But the remote doesn’t offer input selection capability so this is inappropriate for home theater use. It’s very sad because I wanted to buy it but the family would be hard sell since the remote can’t change the inputs on it and also because it p... 
Planning to install diffusers but what's the point?
So this seems very ambitious. No doubt it will change the sound characteristics of any room. Where do you get 3-D diffusers which sounds really cool?

Looking for a McIntosh amp that gives a great example of the “McIntosh Sound”
The Macintosh Mono blocks Mc611 are 600 watts and has autoFormer. This is a solid state amplifier for all your needs.  
Insulation between floors - how affective?
It's the pump motor and I wonder if insulating the rafters Will get rid of that sound.  Heating water flowing through the pipes is fairly quiet.     I'm concerned the sound maybe radiating up along the side of the structure and vibrating a wall t... 
Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp

Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp
Maestro only being sold by one place in the US. This does not paint a favorable picture of this outlet.  
Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp

Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp

Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp
OK, but shouldn’t it be isolated, that is grounded back to the panel  
Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp
Is the outlet from shunyata nickel plated? They don’t say on their website, it’s very limited they only say brass. Seems like the same product as Hubble, except they stick it in the freezer for a few days.  
Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp
Hubbel is same as shunyata, so I'm not sure why it's different.   Where is the maestro outlet from, this sounds like it's better.  
Outlet - Shunyata vs Hubble 20 amp
So because of the nickel plating which causes graininess, The shunyata outlet made by Hubble it’s not very good. Heavy duty Hubble version it's only $30!!! Very disappointing Shunyata would do this.
