An audio rack that really does make a difference.
Core Audio designs are esthetically and functionally superb. My TT and associated equipment sits on a 3 shelf plyKraft rack. They look incredible and are extremely well build. These racks are so sturdy you can jump up and down in front of it whils... 
My "audiophile" weakness(es)...ie: how the item looks, and you?.
I agree entirely, the look of HiFi equipment in my living room is very important. This is why I assembled this system:https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/7324#&gid=1&pid=1At the end of the day I have combined outstanding sound quality wit... 
Watch Mark Knopfler, Rosanne Cash, Darius Rucker and more Cover ‘Stand By Me’
This is wonderful, thanks for sharing. 
If you could buy any system, regardless of price, what would it be?
Probably this one:https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/take-two-2c-hifi-epiphany-worlds-best-systemSimply put, both systems were exceptional in every way, definitely humbling my own $50k system. 
McIntosh MC207
I use a MX122 with a MC207, this system replaced a Krell HTS 7.1 and Krell TAS. I only used the HTS 7.1 as a volume control, all HT processing was done by an Oppo UDP-205. Results with both systems were excellent IMHO. But the McIntosh equipment j... 
One of the Best Stereo System in the World!
Inspirational to put it mildly, well done Mr. Fritz. You have clearly demonstrated what is achievable by being an amazingly dedicated audiophile, I wish you happiness.Marcus 
Who does Krell KSA-150 rebuilds/recapping ??
Going back a bit here, had the KSA-250 rebuilt by Krell in 2004. From what I remember, took about 2 weeks, something like 3 weeks total with shipping both ways, total cost was about $1k. Past experience with Krell's service department has been not... 
Who does Krell KSA-150 rebuilds/recapping ??
Why not have Krell rebuild it for you. They rebuilt my KSA-250 and I ended up with the single best amp I have ever heard/owned. That simple.

5.1 System Front Speaker Separation B&W 802D
Yes they do come with casters. However, the speaker wires will be installed before the speakers arrive. Hence my question. I certainly intend to leave enough wire sticking out the wall so I can move the speakers up to 2-3 feet in any direction. 
5.1 System Front Speaker Separation B&W 802D
Why does Audiogon automatically alter discussion titles containing B&W to B&W? 
First impressions.What multi-channel disc is your favorite
For me two of the Eric Clapton Crossroads concert disc, specifically:1. John Mayer - Queen Of California (2013, in 4K)2. Susan Tedeschi & Derek Trucks - Midnight Up In Harlem (2010)Both tracks have stunning visuals, superb recordings and IMHO ...

Upgrade Krell KSA 250 to what?
$2,500 to refurbish, is that from Krell or an independent service technician?  
Upgrade Krell KSA 250 to what?
Biggest mistake of my HiFi journey, selling a fully refurbished KSA-250 several years ago. Missed it ever since, even tried to buy it back on more than one occasion. Keep the Krell, have it refurbished by Krell or an independent service technician...
