Jitterbugs from Audioquest and the Regen
Agriculturist, I think just like all other things in Audio there is a breakin period. So, give the Jitterbugs time to settle, perhaps a few days.But, on to your question, no, I do not think there is less bass. But, the bass quality did tighten up ... 
Jitterbugs from Audioquest and the Regen
Jc4659, Yea, I think the Regen is very good. I just ordered the Schiit Audio Wyrd. So, I will be able to try all 3 together. 
Jitterbugs from Audioquest and the Regen
Ghosthouse, I think you will like them.Jc4659, I had the iFi Purifier and it did not mate well with the Regen so I sold it.But, the Jitterbug and the iFi Purifier are attached at opposite ends on the usb so it may be something to try. 
Cary 306 Professional vs. Marantz SA11S3
I owned the Cary 306 SACD which was the model before the Pro. Mine played SACD's. Actually quite well. It was a very, good sounding CD player. I copied all of the SACD's from the Cary to a Tascam at 24/192 then onto a external hard drive. They sou... 
Shunyata Power cords Too Boomy and screechy?
My experience with the Kimber Silver Streak was that it is a cable that can be quite glaring and that cable is probably causing, as you call it, "every thing starts to screech". If you like the sound of silver try getting a cable which is soft ann... 
Bricasti M1 DAC vs PS Audio Direct Stream DAC
The Yale is awesome! Much deeper with a natural sounding soundstage. Now the frequency response at the extremes is so natural. 
New Pangea Audio AC-14 XL Power Cord
Quite frankly, I just use some Teflon tape around the end of the IEC to make a snug fit regardless of what power cord I use. At the wall it depends on the AC receptacle. I use Furutech but Oyaide grab the plug very well. 
Speaker suggestion for Pass Labs Int-150
I'm using a Eggleston Andra 2 with my Pass Labs Amp. I think they can be bought used near your target price. 
How NOT to sell an item on Audiogon

Regen by Uptone Audio
Yes, that my be it. Actually, I'm not really using my computer. I'm using a Bryston BDP-2 with 2 2TB hardrives attached to it. The Bryston is then plugged into a PS Audio Direct Stream Dac via usb cable. That is where the Regen comes in. 
Regen by Uptone Audio
Gareneau, Thanks for the information. Hifiial, Thanks also for that thread. It's just seems strange that there is not much interest in the Regen on Audiogon. I find it to be quite a bargain. 
Regen by Uptone Audio
Gary, Not sure if its a "cure all" but it did provide substantial improvement for me. 
Regen by Uptone Audio
Arh, When I first read about it on Computer Audio, I figured it was designed to help desk top computer audio.But, the tweaker that I am, I had to try it.The Regen is sensitive to a upgraded power supply. Instead of using the standard power supply ... 
Has any one heard the Essence 1600 Electrostat?
I'm still interested to hear them. 
Ground 'box' what's in them?
Davehrab, thanks for the technical help. But, it still doesn't explain how or what is inside one of these pricey ground boxes.Psag, I have been very interested in trying one of the Entrq units but, I can't get past the price. For a unit to handle ...
