A little deeper on amp power please....
Best analogy I can think of is: Think of it as a high-power race car that can go 200 miles an hour. Even at the required speed limit, it will display an effortless response that you can feel. ozzy  
Whats playing on your system today?
"A Nod is as Good as a Wink...to a Blind Horse", select songs. I like the song, "Stay with Me". It sounds like a band trying to get it together. ozzy  
Relationship between Ethernet Switch and SQ
Huh? You guys are confusing the heck out of me. I only care if it sounds better. ozzy  
Telos Mini Quantum Resonator (MQR) & Puron Filter together
Well, I have done a 180. I no longer have the Telos in my audio system with the Purons. I think with my Add Power Sorcer x4, the Puron’s and the Telos it was just too much. Once I removed the Telos the soundstage really widened. I was surprised of... 
Relationship between Ethernet Switch and SQ
Man, there is some different opinions. But we all have them. I am using an EtherRegen in my computer room that converts the ethernet to fiber which then goes to my Lumin X1 in my audio room. Pretty much clutter free. To me, the fiber was a game ... 
Purchase on Audiogon arrived not as described
I purchased an item for about $2500 using PayPal credit. The next day I cancelled, and the seller sent a refund. It took PayPal credit 3 weeks to finally remove the charge. I even opened up a dispute showing the merchant’s refund. PayPal blamed it... 
Audio Quest Niagara 5000
Presently I am using the Michi 8. (1800 watts per channel!) (Read my current review) Audiogon Discussion Forum Previous to that I used Bob Carver M350 (tube), Pass Labs X350.8, X350.5 (solid state), Atma-Sphere M60 3.3 (tube)  ozzy  
Audio Quest Niagara 5000
Generally, it is better to plug the amps directly into the wall outlet. That is until you use the AudioQuest 7000 units. Believe what you will, I have experienced it. Merry Christmas! ozzy  
Aardvark Ethernet noise isolator
So, I ordered the iFi ethernet unit. It was about 1/4 the price of the Aardvark and perhaps if it doesn’t do much for my audio it may help my video. And, through Amazon I can always return it for a refund. ozzy

Lots of Neil Young. Too bad he has lost his song after all these years. ozzy  
Bananas vs Spades - for Jumpers?
Most bananas can be manually adjusted to create more surface contact. I would use the opposite of what ever my speaker cables use for jumpers. Makes a cleaner looking connection. ozzy  
Do you adjust your subwoofer
Beware of using the published specs to determine how low your main speakers actually go. Try to play a test track with defined frequency levels from Quboz or from wherever and hear how low your speakers will actually perform. Then, set your sub c... 
Axpona 2024 who is going and why?
If I attend, I would like to meet as many Audiogoners as possible. ozzy  
Audio Quest Niagara 5000
I own the AudioQuest 7000. I hear no hum. But I suppose if I stuck my ear on top of the unit, I could probably detect something. Noise heard thru the speakers? No way, BS. All transformers will produce some noise. I guess it would depend on what ... 
Axpona 2024 who is going and why?
Funny you ask. I bought the Clarisys speakers based on the many positive reviews they received from the Axpona show. Just imagine what I might buy if I actually attend next year? On second thought maybe... I better stay home? LOL! ozzy
