BEST UPGRADE regardless of cost?
Spectral Pre and amp with MIT cabling. Spectacular improvement over the other “so called” top level equipment I had. I’m forever greatful to the well known,well respected Michael Percy (Audio) for his knowledgeable guidance. (PS for those unaware;...

@khrys. I think your blanket statement on other AC power products is incorrect.   You might enjoy learning about balanced power from Equitech. Maybe :)

RIP. I enjoyed his unique talents.  
'Unlistenable' early digital recordings?
@steakster.  You are ansolutey right. Cleaning AC power allows the beauty of early CDs to come through. Particularly “isolation” of the ac power to the digital from the analog components. I’m fortunate to have refined Spectral Audio and MIT I/cs a... 
Does anyone know if Michael Farnsworth, founder of Talon Audio, is still around?
I suggest you take the crossover out of the box and build a separate box for the crossover to eliminate vibration. Upgrade the main wiring from the crossover to all drivers and use larger gauges than what is currently there.  Reinforce the box to ... 
Speakers under $50k that rival $200k+ speakers?
So. What did you think of the DD 6700 auggessyion 
Diffusion vs. Sound Absorption views
@whitestix. The drywall you used does not “damp” the room.   In fact by reducing spurious noise from thinner, flexing drywall it provides much enhanced clarity. IMHO virtually every listening room would benefit significantly from your approach. It... 
New dedicated lines have high noise floor.
@jea48. Thats an excellent bit of information for all our Audiogon friends. Thank very much. Pete 
What is the best solid state amplifier you have ever heard?
Spectral Audio amplifier :)At very first listen it revealed the coloured sound from other top contenders of 200 watts and up. I was amazed at the completely different level of overall refinement and level power output.  
Frequency response + or - 1 dB ??
I believe this thread is dead. No one has responded with any indication they know why it’s not practicable to make speakers with “flat” frequency response - today. I accept this fact and will seek answers elsewhere. I appreciate the information th... 
Frequency response + or - 1 dB ??
“Duke” ?Saying reproducing the frequencies of music - any less accurately than “Spot On” -is simply to accept the failure of today’s technology. That’s   been a common problem with mankind in general and is why we laid breakthroughs that eventuall... 
Need help regarding isolator wiring configuration.
@erik_squires. Yes, Equitech makes models of 240v. I use a 120 model and wouldn’t be without it.
