Opinions on differing power cable for amp and preamp
Thank you @mwh777 ! Appreciate you following up and clarifying, and for the added detail. And I so know the market has been dry lately for Transparent cords, I've been hunting religiously, LOL! But I've only been hunting here and Ebay. I'll expand...

Opinions on differing power cable for amp and preamp
Thanks so much for the replies! @mwh777 very insightful and helpful! Always great to hear from a fellow Transparent owner. Great call on trying out the Transparent before parting with the Shunyata and looking at upgrading the High Performance for ... 
Why do some think "music" (not gear, trading, etc.) is the ultimate end?
Great thread...I look at it this way (and for me it WAS always music first), however once I got into and discovered the "higher end" beyond mass market is when I started listening to jazz. Before my first "real" system I would have never ever even... 
Stupid Power Conditioner question but...
Thank you very much Jim! Great reply and sincerely appreciated. I honestly had been thinking about plugging the SimAudio amp directly into the outlet. I already have the Panamax plugged into one of the receptacles. Plus I also have a whole house s...

Thanks n80! Very well said, and you are so right - doesn't matter how because once you get there (or get BACK there in my case :) whatever path it was was obviously the right one! :)

Opinions on Transparent Cables
Thanks for the opinions...jafant I had the MM1 series...Back in the day I found Transparent Cables to be a perfect match with my Dynaudio's. I honestly have yet to hear anything bad about Transparent but yet I don't see them get a lot of press eit... 
Step me up from Paradigm Studio 20 v4 bookshelf, seriously.
Try Dynaudio Evoke. They will have a "warmer" sound than Paradigm. But there is such a sweetness to their sound that really just draws you in and surrounds you. The 20's pack amazing punch for their size as well!According to Dynaudio Evoke is thei...

Got my PD-F908 connected and powered up last night. Oh my God this is EXACTLY what has been missing! I don't care what any advertisement says or claims, the ONLY way to get "cd quality sound" is with a cd player! Absolutely AMAZING! I couldn't sto...

Negotiate good price
Hi All,So most recently I ran into a situation where I ended up selling off my Dynaudio Excites for all new Evokes. It started because I bought one of the last pairs of X44's (I had the X38's) in black satin via Ebay. I got a call from the dealer ... 
Looking to use the Bluesound Vault 2i High-Res 2TB Network Hard Drive CD Ripper/Streamer
Hello,Wanted to thank you all for your help. Unfortunately I was unaware that I needed to run an ethernet cable to my router which is not possible. So dead in the water on this one. I guess I will have to wait until a true wireless unit that can b...
