Where do you want your system to go when you go?
I want my system to go to a garage in Buffalo with my soul. For those of you that remember George Carlin.  
OK...here's another tweak that really works
Who you jiving with that cosmic debris?  
Basic question about power/watts
Terry, Your dam reasoning does not equate to the lost electricity converted to heat, unless the not used water is just being spilled onto the ground and wasted.  
Hobby, Hobby, Hobby?
Yes,..er  the lakes are getting low. If they get any lower, I fear the people that laughed at my "hobby" are going to start showing up.  
Basic question about power/watts
Class A is like driving your car with your foot flooring the gas pedal, and using the brakes to control the speed. It will work, but do you want to drive that way?  
Does a DAC need a large/strong power supply?

Does a DAC need a large/strong power supply?

Which pair of speakers changed your Hifi life?
A long time ago. They were Dunlavy SC4 set up well in a store. I then experienced not "you are there", "they are here" as it sounded like the performer was in the room.  
Are all dBs created equal?

Don't do me any favors
Yes, I don't know why the whole thing was removed. Maybe the cable advertisers on Audiogon were getting nervous. That's my "Black Helicopter" thinking.  
Don't do me any favors
I was wondering about the thread on the fake Chinese cables. It had over 5 pages of discussions. Now the entire thing is gone. I thought it was informative. Why has it been removed? I can't find it now. I think Carlsbad is correct.
