| Should I have a separate bank account for PayPal? I mostly just go to Wallmart or similar store and pay cash for PayPal MyCash Card. You can load up to $500.00 at a time and the funds go straight into your PayPal account | |

| Vibraplane question Steve,Thanks for the offer. I will shoot you an email at Sounds of Silence. I was just about to order from you when this never used Vibraplane came up on auction. I couldn't pass up since funds are somewhat an issue and it was a great deal.Mike | |
| First favorite tune "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" from Genesis......Laying in bed as a Freshman in high school listening to the radio late one night I fell in love with progressive rock that night | |
| Switching preamps in and out I agree with longer term listening, but swapping in and out is helpful too, and the only way when you have friends over listening with you!My wife gave me the house this Saturday. She taking the kids to a birthday party so that's when the testing ... | |

| Switching preamps in and out Final Word from Kevin,If you switch it to the variable volume mode and turn the volume controls all the way down, yes.With the volume controls at minimum, the "direct/level adjust" switch will act like a mute switch.On 2/6/2013 10:01 AM, Mike Baue... | |
| Switching preamps in and out More from Kevin,The first sentence is true, and the core of the procedure I've suggested to you. The rest of this poster's theory has some flaws, and I would not rely upon his assumptions or assertions.On 2/5/2013 11:10 PM, Mike Bauer wrote:Kevin,... | |

| Switching preamps in and out Thanks everyone for input. Here are components. Everything purchased here on Audiogon. I agree with long term listening but I want to enlist some other ears too, so we will be doing switching in and out on that night.Amp is -VAC Phi 300.1aSource i... | |
| Switching preamps in and out So the power amp has dual level controls. What about just turning down to "0"?Can I leave the preamps on when switching IC's? I can press the mute button-would that work? They are all tube preamps so constsantly turning off and on is not ideal. | |
| SP10 MK3 recommendation Thanks everyone for insights. They have been helpful....... to some degree! I know the bottom line and ideal circumstance is to have something on hand and see how it sounds in your system. This is especially important when getting closer to the en... | |
| SP10 MK3 recommendation So I probably will go with my 10.5" Reed to start with. I wish I could try both but I don't see how that would be possible with out buying them both. Between the Atlas and Supreme which do you think would have better synergy with the Reed and in t... |
