Both Voodoo and Triode Wire Labs are excellent.  Check them out. 
Clear Day vs. Triode Wire Labs speaker cables
I apologize for not posting this earlier, but I now have TWL hooked up in my system.  Both Clear Day and TWL sound good, but TWL sounds fuller and richer to me.  I know this may not be a fair comparison since TWL's price is higher than Clear Day's... 
Clear Day vs. Triode Wire Labs speaker cables
Thank you all for your feedback.  I should be able to compare the two in a couple weeks.  I will definitely share my findings later.

Anticables Level 3 speaker cable is really good.   
Elac B5 and B6??? Just another flash in the pan speaker?? or worth it
I have a pair of B5 in my second system, and they sound very good and musical.  Plenty of sound and bass for a bookshelf size speaker.  I am driving them with the Vincent SV-236 integrated amp and Anticables IC and speaker cables.  Very satisfied ... 
JRiver vs Foobar - which do you prefer and why?
This is my experience as well.  JRiver sounds more live and musical to me.   
Ayre Codex
Hi, Marcge:Was the Codex broken-in?  To me, Codex sounded a lot better than it was after about 200 hours of break-in.  Also, was the comparison done on exactly the same system setup?  Thanks. 
Ayre Codex
I have a Rega DAC and looking to upgrade in the near future.  I was considering Ayre QB-9 DSD, then I heard about Codex.  Should I save the money and just go with Codex?  If the sound quality is about the same, then I will go with Codex.  Thanks f... 
Everyone is selling their Ayre QB-9 DSD's??
I currently have a Rega DAC and looking to upgrade in the near future. Ayre QB-9 DSD is on my short list. Is the Ayre significantly better in terms of sound quality over Rega? I love the Rega sound: warm and musical. Lampizator is also gaining pop... 
Anti Cables and Are They That Good
I have anticables level 3 speaker and level 3 analog interconnect cables, and yes, they are very good. My friend has the USB cable, and it is also excellent. I've also tried their level 3 power cord, but I didn't like it as much. I hooked it up to... 
Anti-Cables Level 3.1 Reference Series USB Digital
My friend has one with the optional 5V power wire separated from the data wire. When I swapped out my Analysis Plus 2.0 USB cable with the Anticable USB, the difference is significant. Of course the Analysis Plus USB is only about $40, but Anticab... 
Plinius owners, what power cable are you using?
I have a Plinius Hautonga. Would Shunyata Venom 3 work? I also heard Voodoo Mojo power cord is coming soon. Is Voodoo better? Thanks. 
plinius hautonga
I bought a Hautonga last month, and I am very pleased with the purchase. I don't know how it compares with 9200, but Hautonga sounds warm, musical, smooth with its big and clean sound. I don't do vinyl, so can't comment on the phono side of things... 
Looking for really fine cables at really low price
Anticables level 3 cables are extremely good. I have been using their level 1 cables for years and level 3 is just significantly better. 
Need advice on a tube line stage
Where can I get a new/used EE Avant? I checked the Morningstar Audio website, but only MiniMax is listed for sale. I've emailed them twice about Avant, but no reply. Is Avant no longer in production? I thought it is a newer and better preamp than ...
