Best Line Conditioner
Line conditioners do exactly what they say and are always masking something in the system from anything I have heard. I have been so happy with what the PSA Power Plant Premier does in my system I almost sold it thinking I could get along without ... 
Adcom Vs Rotel
You will never know or hear the potential of your B&W's with either. Back in the day (early 90's) so many sold their 801's and were driven by entry level high end components. The B&W's will sound good with most gear but will excel and reac... 
Grado Earbuds
You should do some research on the head-fi.org forum by the headphone listening geeks that really tear this subject apart and even hold national listening events that I have attended in the past years. Sorry for the late response. 
Grado Earbuds
If you order them from Headroom you get a 30 day trial. Get any of them to compare and return what you don't want to keep is the best way to be sure.http://www.headphone.com 
Krell Home Schooling Anyone ? Need a Tutorial...
I have been happy for years with the "S" series amps. A little more refined than the KSA-250's with less grain and hash yet retains the realistic sound of instruments. You will pay a lot more as you go up from the KSA "S" models. A great match is ... 
Worst Rock Band Ever !!!!
Amen "Bjpd57al", they just don't write anything anymore and it's really sad. I think our parents were saying similar thinds about our generation but it is at an all time low. No great guitar players or anything to push the envelope or get excited ... 
Audiophile speakers that rock well
B&W......any of the 800 matrix or newer is the reason I choose them is that you can throw anything at them and not feel short changed. 801 matrix are a classic speaker but the nautilus don't break up in the mids at almost to loud volume it has... 
VPI Enthusiasts: Going Backwards?
One word sums up your concerns and not knowing your budget is not a flagship price for VPI........"CLASSIC". 
Worst Rock Band Ever !!!!
Page was a great producer with an ear for the right sound but not necessarily as a composer. Not enough credit is given to JP Jones in that band for being a rock solid rhythm section with J Bonham and contributing to Led Zeppelin. R Plant has been... 
using high end speakers wit integrated recievers
Thanks for the SHO car evaluation "Snofun3". I think there is a Car and Driver forum somewhere to post for those interested. I have read lately that some Toyota's speed up or don't stop at all when you don't want them to, and even brought in NASA ... 
Turntable isolation
Wall mount shelf is cheapest, surest method. Investing in isolation bases or adding weight might not deliver desired results. 
using high end speakers wit integrated recievers
Mainly the entire sonic range will be lacking and you won't appreciate what the speaker is capable of. Years ago many audiophiles used 800 matrix series with Adcom and although very good but still far from the potential they can deliver. If you ar... 
Why are server setups so costly relative to CDP's?
Because it's the latest direction for multi room play and people pay for it. It will drop over time and become better but the latest doesn't mean "better sound forever"......remember CD? 
5 channel amp switcher?
1/4" jacks have a positive and negative so that is not a problem, just another connector introduced in the path. You can get those from your neighborhood Radio Shack. 
What material best for a custom amp stand
Very good info from Serri. I have heard many like maple for its sound with components vs. other woods and materials. I have heard bubinga is another favorable wood which I have drums made from. Tama made 100 "Warlord" kits from 100% bubinga for de...
