^^^I just love a good mystery. So, did any of you pick up that Erica Morini CD I posted above? Come on guys ... there's more to this audiophile business besides 70s rock and Patricia Barber. :-)So, this coming Sunday's listening session will be in... 
Something For The Fuse Guys ...
I've taken a lot of notes so far and will be sharing those at a later date. All I can say at this point is ... they need a little breaking in. Upon initial installation into four separate components, the sound was too relaxed. There were, howeve...

^^^ Nope, my ARC gear is staying put. But knowing how fertile Tim Mrock's mind is, I wouldn't be surprised to see something else after the power strip. I'd like to try one of the power strips for sure, just to see if it would be an improvement ove...

The Golden era of Japanese integrated amps, are we missing out?
^^^ I also had a Yamaha CA 1000 back in the day. It had a switch where you could run it in class A. The only difference I noticed was it ran a lot hotter in Class A with no difference in SQ in either mode. It was a nice sounding unit for sure.Its ...

discopants ...I pasted just about everything inside of my Sound Application power conditioner, including the entire inside of the lid. I did not paste any bare wires where they connect to caps, etc. Just about everything else got at least a touc...

lak ... "Stop It's" is the latest product from PPT. They are little two-prong devices that plug into unused wall sockets. Think in terms of those child safety plugs that keep little fingers from getting poked into the outlets. When treated with ...

^^^ Guys, if you haven't done so yet, get enough of the new Stop Its to plug into every open electrical outlet in your home. They really enhance every PPT product you've invested in so far. It's like someone fed "The Gate" an overdose of testoster...
