Synergistic Purple Fuse - Aftet 1 Year of Use
Many won't agree with this, but the SR fuse is vastly superior to a stock fuse. Live with the stock fuse for 2 weeks, depending on how much time you do  in-the-room attentive listening of course.  Then pull that fuse out and put the Purple SR bac... 
Looking for a line conditioner
I'm sure that you can't go wrong with either the Synergistic Research powercell or the comparable Audioquest series conditioners.  I have always liked the SR PowerCells.   Very analog, natural sounding improvements all down your system. The newer...

Cool-running tube or SS amp for small room
Thanks all for your replies. So many options. Since I have a couple of Manley tube units, I decided to stay away from tubes (too much heat). Will likely go with the Channel Island D-100 mono pair. For the size of my room, 10x14, I think the D-200'... 
Cool-running tube or SS amp for small room
Many thanks for the advice. I will look for the Edge amps and the 2BSST.I am actually powering the Vandersteen 2C and it is a home studio monitor situation, so I am listening as I work on music. Composing, mixing, and then mastering. I have a Simm...
