Seeking a "high end" integrated amplifier
give a listen to: Aronov 960 intergrated, won't break the bank. Spend the rest on music. Also Unison makes a sweet int. amp. By the way I'm partial to tubes 
Best tube amp $2000-2500?
give a listen to a music reference RM 9 mk II they are hard to beat for the money or twice the money, they will drive most speakers and reproduce music like amps costing at least twice as much and the company is a dream to work with Potsey

Joule-Electra LA-150 - Any Suggestions?
Use an isolation platform that has air in it. In addition I use cones from black diamond. As far as power cords go the Joule loves "FAT MAN" from Electraglide. As for tubes, you'll have to spend a LOT of money to buy better tube than Jud uses from...

Anyone using Joule Electr VZN100 MKIII amplifiers?
