Static attack! Time to get the humidifiers going
I own the Furutech and the Zerostat. IMHO I believe the Furutech to be superior to the Zerostat or any antistatic device I used. I keep my listening room at 70/50 (temp/RH) and so far no issues with static.   
Looking for Advice on Focal Speakers

Whats on your turntable tonight?
Beth Hart tribute to Led Zeppelin.  I am getting a stiffie  
Crackling in right channel, what do I do? Help, please.
""I swapped the speaker cables at the amplifier and the crackle moved to the other speaker."" Run one single attached speaker cable then the other to determine if it is the cable? Maybe you did that as I did not read every post.   
Computer updated and now Roon is blocked
