Power Cables and Wall Sockets
+ 1 on a dedicated line AND Hubbell outlets. Everything matters.  
Weekly recap gone ?

New Bluesound Node – First Impressions
+1 on all the Node2i > MHDT Orchid posts. Then have Grannyring modify your Orchid - huge improvement - Then add an adapter with a NOS 7308 tube. Wow, rivals my analog rig. Not quite on par, but SO good and SO convenient. 
So done with audiophile fuses
Another observation on the unwrapped SR fuse. From the image, it looks as if they applied a graphene paste to the fuse before they wrapped it in their foil backed SR sticker. Perhaps these two additions to the stock fuse is part of their proprie...
