Power conditioning for digital gear AND tube amp?
I have not heard it, but the Audience Adept Response AR 6 TS has a great review by Doug Blackburn. Only 5 grand though. :-). 
Thoughts from THE Show, is $29k the new $10k?
Nonoise, have you heard the Atohm GT-2's? Just curious to how they sounded compared to the GT-1s. I think they make their own drivers. 
under the radio early 80s new wave....
How about Split Enz, General Public, Devo, the English Beat. 
Modwright KWI-200 Integrated, Any experiences?
Kiwi, how many hours did the ModWright KWI 200 have when you put it in? That may make a difference. 
Anyone HEARD the qol 'signal completion' device?
I found I like it better after the source as well. Of course those with Integrated amps do not have a choice. 
Music Server/DAC in Same Box
what is my budget? I don't know, I'm a crazy audiophile, I will make it happen. :-). Really though. At the moment, I have about 5 grand to spend, but not sure if I want to spend it on a source/server/DAC at the moment. May want to spend it somewhe...

Music Server/DAC in Same Box
thanks for the replies.David, no I have not compared the Mach2Music to the basic Mac Mini.Markemark, I check out the Micromega 400. Interesting indeed, but the amp may be the weak link and I am not willing to compromise in that important part of t... 
what is the best sounding speakers for under 5000.
Hey Seadogs, I am in Des Moines. I should stop in too. What electronics were they using? 
Modwright KWI-200 Integrated, Any experiences?
I used to own the 150, and I felt it was a little rolled off as well. Maybe the SE version improved in that area? I have the KWI 200 on the way so I will try and post my impressions, but only after a few hundred hours. 
VAC 160i, any experiences
oh, I did a search and it didn't show the remote in any of the features. thanks. Anyone compare VAC to Ayon? 
Amp is plugged to the wall, why use a conditioner?
my amp does not sound nearly as good plugged into the Running Springs Jaco as it does plugged directly into the wall. 
VAC 160i, any experiences
So no remote with this integrated? Wife yells at you, you can't hit mute and yell back what? :). Also, some of us, maybe even most by now, have computer audio in our systems. Our whole music library is accessible via a smart phone remote, Itunes, ... 
Grover IC's
