PS Audio Directstream MK2
I had the MK I and traded it in for the MK II which was better than the MK I right from the start. Each free software update has been a very nice improvement. The MK  II has a second FPGA I don’t think they have even tapped into yet. The PS Audio ... 
question for SLP05 owners:
They were made to be stacked . I recently sold mine to a buddy who has them stacked just like I did for years.  
Tekton speaker comparison thread
I sent a message to jrusso 121 inviting him up but I should have posted this for everyone. I don’t know if Tekton Design participates in audio shows and since they don’t have a dealer network the only way to hear them as far as I know is at someon... 
Is anyone here still into live concerts these days?
Last year for the first time in years my wife and I went to see Styx and Foreigner at the Bangor Maine Amphitheater. I was actually surprised how good the sound quality was compared to many of the arena style shows we attended in the past. The neg... 
??? All In One CD Ripper - SACD Rip/Playback - Streamer ???
Check out Wolf Audio as their products will do what you are looking for and their customer service is terrific.  
CLASS D

Where to purchase cables?
I have no local dealers who stock cables I am interested in so I always borrow from the. Cable Company to see what does or doesn’t work in my system.

Insurance for system
Thanks everyone for the great information which I will follow up on. It is a treat to be able to post about an issue and get educated responses like this.  
Insurance for system
@roxy54  I agree with you. I had an evaluation done by a local hifi dealer which I submitted to her. She is young so maybe it is a case of inexperience or maybe she just isn’t interested either way I would prefer to take my money elsewhere as I do... 
My new review for The Absolute Sound comparing AGD GAN amps with BHK300’s
Very nicely done. I look forward to your future reviews.  
Give Up on Bacch?
Yes I would talk to them . They scheduled the implementation for Monday so they should actually give you at least a week to listen to it. I installed the u-BACCH for Windows on my system and enjoy it immensely. Yes, it is essentially a one person ... 
Adona Equipment Racks
I have two of their Signature Series equipment racks as well as two amp stands. In my opinion they are not only attractive but a good value as well. No they aren’t the best out there in vibration control but to address this I use Voodoo Cables Iso... 
Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers
At least Stereophile reviews Tekton speakers as this is the second pair they have evaluated. The Absolute Sound as far as I know hasn’t reviewed any. Yes , the speakers are controversial so one would think a magazine for audiophiles would try at l... 
Suggested Power Cable for Streamer
@bluethinker Yes the majority of my system has Voodoo cables. Some are top of the line such as the front end gear and my amps and some are the next tier down.
