Power Conditioner vs A/C cables
I would in fact argue against buying these form high end firms and get ones that meet medical requirements. I fully agree. As far as I'm concerned audio equipment is just as sensitive as medical equipment, yet few seem to understand the impact... 
Integrated Amp upgrade path
Yamaha’s “not good” for his system?  Care to qualify that statement?  It’s a digital source, format and features matter more then price.  But go ahead and waste your money, op mentioned that “data is data” so I’m assuming they aren’t a sucker. ... 
Power Conditioner vs A/C cables
A power condition that generates its own pure sine wave output is worthwhile to completely remove line noise.Shielded power cables stop Electromagnetic Interference emanating from the cables. Certainly EMI is present in the environment, but it is ... 
Has Anybody Else Heard These?

In this case I'd suggest if you want to hear an improvement, you will. All it really does is empty the pocket and sharpen the mind so you can hear things that were always there.As the saying goes, a fool and his money are soon parted.Perhaps they ... 
What is better, analog or digital?
There is some crackle and pop but much more authentic. Authentic?Does it really need to have rumble, crackle and pop to be authentic? Wouldn't crystal clear be preferable? 
Why Do So Many Audiophiles Reject Blind Testing Of Audio Components?
It's really a depressing question. Why do so many people reject/fear science? So who rejects science? Flat Earth people? Who fears science? Why would anyone be afraid of science?Science or equipment tests can tell us a lot of things but it is c... 
Is it safe to use a higher amperage rating fuse?
Simple. The fuse or circuit breaker in your house is to protect you and your house.The fuse in your equipment is to protect its components. In both cases you should never use a higher value. In the house it is to stop drawing too much current thro...

I'm using SVS SoundPath Subwoofer Isolation System for my subwoofers and IsoAcoustics Stands for everything else.Well worth looking into. 
mystery muffled mids
EKR - Retro Rock through TuneIn Radio is reasonable with AAC - 128 kbps. Currently playing the Immigrant Song. Not bad at all, although I prefer listening to my own sources. 
This is the list of the best makers of audio equipment. Respond if you disagree
Cassettes. You cannot be serious. If you're into tape get something with a decent speed. Ditch the compact toys and get a reel to reel deck. Cassettes run at 1.875" per second.  Reel to reel runs at 7.5" per second or 15" per second, which is th...
