| Anyone listen to entire albums? Mostly, yes. Entire CDs all the way through. Though after long listening sessions I’ll usually finish up with a few single selections to end in the proper mood before heading to bed. | |
| Coping with single sided deafness in right ear PLEASE make sure you go to an ENT for diagnosis if not already done. One-sided deafness could indicate an acoustic neuroma, which requires medical intervention. This is a serious condition if not properly addressed. (Speaking from personal experie... | |
| Your thoughts on best audiophile speakers in $10,000 neighborhood? Pure Audio Project, such as; the Trio 15 ($8000.00). The openness and huge soundstage is hard to beat with open baffle. +1.

| Recommended RCA sub-woofer cable? Thank you. Get the best one available at BlueJeansCable. I had them for my subs and they worked great. Well built. I made sure to get the same length for each sub so no time delay issues even though one sub was only a short distance. | |

| Volti v Charney v Rethm ... my concern would be bass energy in a large room because of cancellation of the front and back output which are out of phase (this reduces bass by 6 db/octave). I believe this is true in general, but as per Ze'ev, not so much with his PAPs ... | |
| What is the best 2A3 SET Amplifier? Whammerdyne hasn’t been mentioned yet and is one of the best 2A3 SETs I’ve heard. I was just going to post that my Whammerdyne DGA-1 uses ultrawide bandwidth output transformers. I think it sounds glorious. Running NOS tubes. | |
