Audience Au24 SE power cord Upgrade
Jasbirnandra, i am am using FI-28's on all of my power cords along with GTX-D receptacles in my rig.  Please read my feedback in my previous posts in this thread.   
Marantz SA-11-3 or Modwright Oppo 105
I know from experience,  Oppo is an great player and folks at  Modwright are simply outstanding.  
What's the greatest bargain in audio racks these days?
Core Audio Designs....real wood audiophile racks at down to earth prices.  I own 3 of them, outstanding quality.  
You read a lot about D'Agostino nowadays but little about Krell
The current management at Krell been cashing every ounce of goodwill, once so proudly built and maintained by Mr. Agostino. I can understand about the company taking a new direction but one must maintain quality control and impeccable customer ser...

taters, yes they were purchased through authorized Krell Dealer.  And all my dealer could say, 'you don't know how many times I have reached out to Krell for follow-up.  
You read a lot about D'Agostino nowadays but little about Krell
Dan was the heart and soul of Krell.  The only direction they are going now is down hill.  Last year I purchased components worth 42K and both components had cosmetic and performance issues. The icing on the cake was their atrocious customer servi... 
DUAL SUBS IN THE $10,000-$15,000 RANGE
Hmm...I am going to cue up the opening scene once I get home tonight and try to hear what you experienced. Also, the opening scene of Edge of Tomorrow has some serious bass, I think it gets down to 10HZ.  Thanks!! 
DUAL SUBS IN THE $10,000-$15,000 RANGE
ptheo, thank you for sharing the magico s-sub info.  I wonder how much bass one needs in a typical HT or 2-ch setup? How big is your listening room?  I just installed a f212v2 last month in my HT room (15"Dx30"W).  Just one of the 212's is freakin... 
Why are people always getting into pissing matches because they think what they have is better
Great post!  I think it's mostly ego.  And then, our relentless pursuit for a perfect system (if there is such a thing out there). I have been in this hobby for 15+ years.  As part of audiophile community, all of us deserve bit of recognition for ... 
Best tube dac available?
Modwright Elyse - Tungsram 7DJ8 signal tubes, Philips 5R4GYS rectifier and HIFI Tuning Supreme Fuse.  Amazing details and dynamics with KWA150SE in bridged mode.  Best of both worlds!!! 
Hi End Fuses
YES!!! They do make sonic enhancements.  To what degree, depends on your gear. I have been using HIFI Tuning fuses for over 5 years in my rig and recently installed a Supreme series fuse in my Modwright DAC. I wouldn't say that difference is day a... 
Tidal vs. Deezer Elite for Sonos
Hi Howard, What sounds better is purely subjective to one's personal taste and associated gear. Since you're listening through Sonos, there shouldn't be any discerning differences between Tidal and Deezer Elite. They both stream music in 1,411Kbit... 
Im over Tidal
Zero issues with Tidal since I switched from Netgear Powerline adapters to Apple AirPort Extreme duo.  Best sound and music collection is growing...still not on par with Spotify and Rhapsody.  But I would take awesome streaming quality over conten... 
Music Servers-Why so few?
IMO, Auralic and Aurender pushing the envelope in ease, quality and wide range of price levels. The Aurender N100H is practically a 'steal' for anyone wants to own a high quality streamer as an alternate to mac/windows based system.   
Server to DAC connection
psag,  IMO, N10 does a great job of minimizing digital noise and jitter control.  If you do end up up trying Alpha USB, please post your finding here. Here's to another tweak and relentless pursuit for audio nirvana 🍻
