| Power Cord: Need to choose from these, please help Sorry about the "wearing us out" comment. I thought you were the same person who just put up 3 or 4 power cord questions the last couple of days. | |
| Power Cord: Need to choose from these, please help Dude, you're wearing us out with this. No one can (should) tell you which one to choose. Just pick two off your list, I suggest the two cheapest and live with them for 2 or 3 months and then pick one and sell the other. Repeat this process until y... | |
| Got a 24/96 DAC & Anti-Jitter USB for PC now what? Your next decision is Apple or PC.

| How to play Pandora on mini without a monitor So you could do a VNC client for Pandora (and other operations)and use the Itunes Remote for controlling Itunes? I that right? What about internet radio like viewing and changing stations? | |
| tubes and rock and roll, good fit? Isn't every audiophile bored? | |
| SACD's to avoid due to poor remastering. Eric Clapton's 461 Ocean Blvd was disappointing. It sounds compressed like every other recording I have of this session. Too bad- great album. | |
| Speakers for 55 watts of EL-34 tube power ? Any of the multitude of big Tannoy's for sale here on Audiogon. Best bang for the buck would be to buy raw drivers (12" or 15" gold or red) and have a box built. You will be in music lovers paradise. I'm listening to a pair right with 9 watts and ... | |
