Virtual Dynamics powercords How good?
I reccomend that you pick up smoe used Nite cables. These are great cables and work well with all components. I use them with Mark Levinson componnets, except for digital which I use Shunyata Black Mamba II, and the amps sound so much better then ...

Fellow audiophiles,Thanks for all that input as I am going to build a dedicated audio visual room in my new home. I am building around my system. Mostly Mark Levinson, B&W speakers, and a lot of other stuff. SOny CRT, Stewart Screen, Proceed P... 
How to stop upgrading and aviod going bankrupt????
I know how you feel I just spent a lot of money I saved for 3 years and while sitting in that hot desert in Mid East courtesy of George W Bush. I got the upgrade bug and cannot stop. I have used credit cards to max, and keep going with savings and... 
Should I upgrade my Levinson 38S preamp to 380S?
Sell the 38S! Look out for 380S on Audiogon and E bay...I bought a 380S at a "reasonable price". I am afraid that Mark Levinson may go the way of Dunlavy, Tice, Proceed, etc. I hope not because I have invested heavily into ML components. Great stu... 
New Rolling Stone - 500 Best and a free SACD
I agree that in order for SACD to succeed the label MUST release stuff we want. I have e mailed them and told customer relations that audiophiles who like SACD and DVD A, to a lesser degree, want worthy releases (exceptional remastering and remixi...

Peter Gabriel....Bad sounding CD's......groan.....
If you do not have a SACD player yet grt one! PG has has released a lot of his work on SACD and the GH before the new one is fantastic! SACD 2 channel is the way to go. 
does levinson discontinue 33/31.5/37/30.6/360S

Wait a Minute Do those Cardas Caps Work
I use them on all my equipment especially Levinson 360s, 380s,DCS, and for the a relatively cheap price they just keeps dust out of these expensive components. A piece of mind! What is a few hundred dollars for 20,000+ dollars worth of componnets? 
What is the best tube amp for Klipsch Cornwall spk
Thanks Klipsch owners. I will consider both Cary and Quicksilver for power amps and preamps. My Cornwalls have been in storage for 10-15 years. I do not know if they even still work. Does Klipsch still repair the classic spekares? 
Has anyone had dCS Elgar/Purcell Upgrades done?
I live in England and have the Purcell, and looking for an Elgar. I called dCS to check n upgrades and they said that there is no upgrades to the unit per se; rather it is an exchange program that, depending on s/n, they deduct the value of the ol... 
Need speaker cables for HT System
I have set up a home theater with B&W 801s, 805HTM, SCM8s, DS6 with Mark Levinson amps and using Kimber 8tc for the surround, center, and rear. The result is excellent! And you can get them cheap used.
