Placing turntable on top of fireplace mantle?
Looks good, except for the chimney. When you see the word "chimney" think great big tuning fork going through the roof picking up every vibration from wind, rain, etc. Not saying its bad just think about it, nowhere near as good as it might seem. ...

20’ TT cabling
That’s actually the very best way to do a system! Everything as far apart and on as many different circuits as possible! Who helped you design that? Whoever it was he is he hit a homerun! 
Do chinese tube preamp/amp clones interest you?
In logic this is what is called the Fallacy of the Straw Man. Create an imaginary and totally fake position, pretend that's what the person said, then refute it.   Total garbage. You can do better. On second thought maybe not. But surely you can a... 
Why is there no love for Prima Luna?
Classic liberal logic: can’t answer a single point, because they’re all correct. So instead attack the man, change the subject, make false accusations, distract, distract, distract. The more you do this by the way the weaker your reasoning powers ... 
Acoustic Revive RR-77, 777, 888 Schumann Generator
mahgister, when you say "interconnected" I think all you mean is they are connected to the same power source, right? What I mean is they are all working independently, not synchronized, right? 
Acoustic Revive RR-77, 777, 888 Schumann Generator
With more listening, the effect of these things really is amazing. There's a sense of realism that is in some ways very similar to a lot of other things. Some of which I am unfortunately not yet free to tell anyone about. In terms of what I can th... 
Do chinese tube preamp/amp clones interest you?
I think the "clones" that China produces are a theft of intellectual property at best, and are crap in a nice looking case at worst.China has proven they are capable of producing good equipment AND good brands. Line Magnetic is a perfect example ... 
Favorite Symphonies Quiz
Curse? You mean its not just pivoted tone arms? Symphonies are cursed too???! Dang. I know audiophiles believe in a lot of crazy stuff but come on, man! 
I was told to put Kitty Litter in my new speaker stands. Was he joking?
Its like this everywhere. There are guys who say use peanut butter to recondition the black rubber trim on cars. Some monkey says it, some bird parrots what the first monkey said, eventually whole flock of sheep baaa-baaa-baaa-ing the same blather... 
DAC Choices - $5,000 to $7,000
Can we merge this with the cable thread and ask why a DAC is so expensive? It is after all just a chip. 
Non-Standard Christmas/Holiday Music I like, ..and yours?
Tales From The Crypt has a good collection of Christmas classics like Deck the Halls with Parts of Charlie. My all-time favorite though is still Ding Fries Are Done https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvvHXjKloNs 
Using 15 Amp Power Cord in 20 Amp Receptacle
The whole point of 15 and 20 amp circuits is to prevent fire. Circuit breakers, fuses, wire gauges, outlets and plugs that change with amperage, that's the whole entire reason for all this stuff. Its all intended to avoid a situation where the cur... 
Why is there no love for Prima Luna?
oldhvymec is right. Its politically incorrect to say it. If we don't stop the steal then soon it will be illegal to say it. But the fact is China is the CCP. Every business in China is controlled by the CCP. Every single one. State sanctioned pira... 
Top linear trackers
Just had a wonderful time listening to some of the best sounding music ever, only to learn to my surprise the whole time I was beside myself with pleasure I was in reality cursed. Damn that pivoted arm! Its so cursed it cast a spell making me thin...
