Sound Application for power amps
I've just tried one of Jim's older units. Remarkable! Correction to above: by ALL MEANS use SOUND APPLICATION units for amps as well. They are designed for high current demand. (JIM will confirm this.) I will simply say this - if you have excellen... 
Review: CH Technologies X15 power cord Power cord
Hi Tom, I just came across this thread as I'm interested in Sound Application products. Can we discuss? 
What can I improve in my audio system for better s
Are your speakers capable of great dynamic swings? Can they play 3/4 times as loud as you would listen? Does your amp play that loud without using more than 30% of available dynamic power? That's needed to give you at least a natural relaxed sound...

Sound quaity : OPPO 105D vs ALPHA DAC new/old
Please help... 
So long, Paul Revere and Mike Auldrige
I appreciate they did the "Indian Reservation" and of course 'Kicks' was meaningful as well. RIP.
