Does the length of the Cable matter?
As a general rule, as I have been told by repeated 'experts', keep the interconnects as short as possible, ~1 meter.  Amp to speakers can be much longer, but use high quality speaker cable, not lamp cord....  
Phono Stage Question.....

Phono Stage Question.....
rauliruegas...thanks for your input.  It has great value. One question not answered in the review.  Is the PS phase or non phase inverting?  Very important to know, especially with C-J equipment.

Two good quality hospital grade outlets is a good choice!

What is the forums opinion of SVS subs?
Soix is 100 percent correct.  I own two of the SVS subs he speaks of.  I've had them over a year now.  I am happy with them and do not regret the purchase!  Good luck on your decision!

Kef Reference Tweeters-Ferrofluid Replacement
Don, good question!  I'm not an expert on ferrofluid, but I would believe yes, it can dry out just sealed in a plastic bag.  The ferrofluid comes hermetically sealed in a small pouch, similar to what you get catchup and mustard in.  The pouch need...

Try This With Your SS Amp
Many moons ago I had a CJ premier 11 amp.  It had Svetlana 6550's.  The violet color plasma within the tubes would swirl around.  It was memorizing.  Alas, no Svetlana tubes being built any more....  
Why don't we tire of music?
Ah, that is called an 'ear worm'.  As far as I can tell everyone suffers from the phenomenon.  For me recently, 'Fly Robin Fly'.  A old disco dance song!  
Why don't we tire of music?
larsman.  Wasn't really sure where to post this question.  My logic told me that analog would work because we are analog beings.  We don't hear music, or anything else for that matter in digital, we hear in analog, actual sound waves.  Hence the p... 
Magico M9 a ton of weight and a million dollar price tag $750,000
Why would you need 6 amplifiers as stated in the write up? How would one pre-amp hook up to 6 amps? And, at 1,000 pounds each a fork lift truck will be necessary to move them. It would be interesting to see a private owners set up for these mon...
