Power cable recommendations for wyred 4 sound Sti-Intergrated amp
I suggest getting a home demo of Clarity Cable Vortex power cords. Google James Romeyn and I’m sure he will send you some to audition. All systems/preferences are different, but in my system I preferred Vortex power cords over Shunyata Sigmas, Wir... 
Dedicated power
Two weeks ago I added two 20 amp lines. They go directly to the outside box. The sound has become a little bright with everything plugged into the new lines. 
Alternative to Tellurium Q Silver Diamond XLR
In my system Wireworld Platinum series 8 is very close, with the Tellurium being slightly more detailed.  
SVS vs REL and experiences with both: your comments and preferences...
worldwidewholesales,There are no absolutes in Audio, only preferences. The truth is I hate to post on Audiogon, because far too many threads turn into silly arguments. You are a dealer for SVS and admit that you have not heard any current REL, but... 
Chord mscaler - what’s so good about more taps?
It's like everything else that's subjective. Some swear by the Mscaler and some don't. I love my Chord Dave DAC; however I didn't like the Mscaler in my system. To my ears the Mscaler makes everything sound "artificial". That being said, only your...

All New ROTEL MICHI GEAR // State-Of-The-Art
I don't know if the M8s are game changers or not, but I'm trying to find a dealer in TX that has the M8s so I can compare them to my Rowland 625 S2 amplifier as possible replacements to drive my Monitor Audio PL500 II speakers. 
Best integrated for my needs????

"Splurge and get the audioquest thunder...." I replaced six AQ Hurricanes with Clarity Audio Vortex power cords after comparing them in my system. I've listened to Shunyata Alpha & Sigma, Wireworld Platinum, and AQ Dragon power cords in my sys...

Anyone ditch the sub after large speaker purchase?
I don't think I'll ever have a 2-channel system without subwoofers,  regardless of how low my main speakers go down to. Properly integrated subwoofers can improve everything across the audio spectrum. When I turn my subwoofers off, the soundstage ...

jny,Just Google Jeff Rowland contact number. I sent you a pm with the number and verified it was correct. You will need an authorization number to return any component for repair. They are very responsive and usually provide outstanding customer s... 
Best integrated for my needs????
I just listened to the Boulder 866 integrated driving Rockport Avior II speakers. I've heard the Gryphon 300, T+A 3100, and several other integrated amplifiers. Try to get a home audition of the Boulder 866, it's very good.
