How much does rock-solid speed stability cost?
Everything you have in the bank, most of your friends and certainly your wife. After all that what does it really matter? 
Does your system reflect your personality?
I was wondering if anyone else saw characteristics in their system that they recognize in themselves. I guess I'm not the only one. I am a bigger than average athletic guy. I like big powerful amps. I like having 400wpc driving the music.I'm not v... 
Audio Diversity - What is it?
TWL, you're a brave man!I am sure the differnces in most system and the great disparity of opinions is mostly due to personal prefernce. It is similar to some people liking country music while others find it to be the lowest common denominator of ... 
Is there a future for Redbook players?
I sure hope not. I'm not sure there was a past for them. 
Which cables go with what?????
This was actually designed by a few of us as a weight loss program! At least it's worked for Gunbei! 
Question regarding burn-in
LAK is right about this. That's one of the nice thing about breaking-in cables other than speaker cables since you don't need to shut anything off at night,or during other quiet times.Let the pre-amp fly!!! 
Is vinyl dead ?
Sean, I have been trying to attract flies for years. Appearantly I've been going about this all wrong. I tried the 'not bathing' an similar things. All I need is honey??? 
Name that tune?
It's hard to place, I think you were off key!

Oracle Alexandria Question
If the Alexandria is not warped already I doubt that it will. Do you know what generation Alexandria you are considering?I had one several years ago and enjoyed it very much. I had a problem with the buttons once, but I got it fixed for a reasonab... 
Hafler DH-110 better than receiver preamp???
The Hafler was a decent piece in it's time, but that was a long time ago. Generally speaking seperates do sound better, not necessarily because they are seperate, but because the designers put more effort into them than into a receiver.I don't kno... 
Aragon 28k mk2 or Adcom GFP 750 preamp?
FWIW I owned the Aragon Pre-amp and found it to be a good piece. At one time I had the pre-amp mated with the 8008st amplifier. I did not keep the pre-amp very long (I bought a used Krell instead) but the amp stayed for a few years. I have never o... 
pass lab x-350 vs krell ksa 300s?
The Pass Labs X-350 is a better sounding amp than the Krell KSA 300. As you can see I am a Krell owner so I am not out to just bash Krell. A Krell FPB 300 would be a better match to the X-350. The KSA series is older and I don't think as good as t... 
I have a vocabulary question.
A 'pair' of interconnects mean two cables which run between two componants.The same is true of speaker cable. One pair of speaker cable couples the amp and the pair of speakers. 
What is your cost for each system category ?
Ohlala I was not aware that I was talking any trash, not that I have a problem with talking trash. I wouldn't mind being taken to task over it if I had done it. What are you misunderstanding about my post. My initial comments were somewhat introsp...
