Racks made of wood
I want to echo what has been said above because I totally agree: If you can afford the Core Audio Designs - PlyKraft component racks, I highly recommend them. With the addition of some audio equipment I had to add an additional rack, I'm very plea...

@grannyring, yes the Furutech SO22N (14 gauge) wire, when built properly along with the $39 per set carbon fiber barreled, rhodium plated connectors from China, does sound quite good on front-end components. I preferred the sound of the 14 gauge F...

Pick A Tube Phono Preamp, but not just any Tube Phono Preamp
