More questions about dedicated lines
What spinaker01 said, +1.     Did that(two 10/2 runs, with a twist, to avoid induction), a few decades ago, with excellent results. 
Anybody tried solid silver wire as a jumper on Maggies? Magnepan LRS or other models?
On my first Maggies(SMGa), I tried 1/8" solid silver rod.     Afterward, bypassed the fuse block and jumper connections completely, internally.     Did the bypass on those I owned following, as well(MMG, MG12, 1.7i).     Maggie’s jumpers are ferro... 
Speaker Cable Recommendations
Another +1, for Analysis Plus cables. 
Cable septic
btw: If you live anywhere close to Indianapolis; I’d be willing to bring some cables(power, interconnect and speaker), to install/audition in your system.     None of mine are for sale, but- it would be fun and informative. 
Cable septic
"Septic"?     A very apposite descriptive, of so many claims, made on this site.     You’ll never know if a good set of cables will make a difference TO YOU, until you try them, for yourself.     The Cable Company charges 5%, of their going price,...

Enjoy your swirl. 
Why no “Break in” period?
I stand by every statement I’ve made and prof’s copied/pasted, then- twisted.     ie: ONLY experimentation, PROVES whether theories or opinions/biases are correct(no theory has ever proven anything).     The second is PLAINLY an encouragement for ...

"therefore my experience has verified the claim and anyone who doesn’t hear what I hear is at fault."???                                          PLEASE, point out any post, in which I’ve ever put forth such a proposition.     I’ve never had an ag...

SO; the bottom line of all this discussion(according to some) would be, "It’s a waste of time, trying to upgrade your system/listening pleasure, by actually auditioning(LISTENING), since YOU’RE too inept to tell if there’s an improvement in sound,...

@cleeds- Thanks, but- I was quoting and agreeing with millercarbon, who had expounded on, what I’ve always promoted on these threads(ie: experimentation).      Also(far as atdavid’s weak, "viablility" objection); one could probably, "drive a Kenwo...

"Oh, one last but very important point.    In terms of simple logic the situation goes like this- the person who hears a difference is under no obligation to prove or substantiate it with physical theory.   That's one.            And two would be,... 
Why no “Break in” period?
I repeat: "Bias" is bias, regardless of the viewpoint or subject.     ie: Those that are so adamant, regarding their beloved theories/opinions/biases(regardless of the source), while refusing to acknowledge that ONLY experimentation(the heart of t...
