Help with power distribution

Help with power distribution
Thanks aolmrd1241, I have heard great things about the Hydra from my online searches and it is one of the few in the running. Are you using monoblocks and if so are you using them on the same outlet or do you have them separated? One of the issues... 
Have AZ Martrix Ref II's/ Compare to Silver Ref 2
Currently running AZ silver ref2's between CDP and pre; while AZ Matix 2's connect my amp to the pre. I arrived at this because the detail in the silvers firmed up the bass and extended the highs without loosing the mid warmth. However the silvers...

How to hook up a tube preamp to my integrated amp
Thanks for your responses and ideas. While all the solutions in all three posts will not destroy my components it seems like the last is most appealing, since I am interested in how my CDP will also sound through the tubes of the Rogue. Thanks again. 
Musical Fidelity A 308 integrated vs. Moon I-5 LE

Any good Contemporary Christian recordings
Pedro the Lion is a favorite, his vinyl in particular. I second Mindy Smith the production is great. The new Jars of Clay is also produced well. When it comes to Christians who are doing good music, U2 and Moby also make great recordings.

Best Rock Cartridge for Rega $600
