New Power Cable on a 1990 Hafler DH120?
@wlp3-      No one can tell you whether YOUR system/ears will (or can) resolve/discern any improvement(s), if your Hafler's PC is upgraded.      Having done a number of such upgrades, on Hafler equipment:  I will state that the move invariably b...

     The local Master Of The Deluded ("Trust ME, I’m a fictitious operative!"), recommends joining a delusional, "Society".                                       Reverse psychopathy?                                               Projection?    ... 
Power Cables on Subwoofers do Matter
@gladmo -      Based on your experience, as a musician: what percentage of knowing when the rhythm section is right, would you attribute to, "feel" (physiological/tactile)?                        In both performing and listening scenarios, that ...

@sdl4 -      Thanks for the correction.      It’s been a minute, since my last cable purchase.

Recommendations for automatic tonearm lift
      I've been using original versions of this unit, since the early Eighties* and have never been disappointed: https://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-AT6006R-Safety-Raiser/dp/B07HKX6WL7                   *Of course: they were much less expensi... 
Is there a solid fuse-like item that I can use in place of a fuse, to bypass it?
@yowser -             I, for one, appreciate @cakyol perspectives and candor!   
Looking for suggestions for a good and trusted tube dealer
    Another vote for Brent Jessee, for signal (octal and nine pin) tubes (excellent tube quality/testing protocols and customer support*).      For power tubes: Upscale Audio and these guys: https://tctubes.com/6550-KT88-KT90-KT120-tubes.aspx   ... 
Why don't upgrade the wires and components inside our units?
                      Why do so many* make such ignorant assumptions?       I've been upgrading caps in signal paths, modding/improving power supplies, and using Teflon insulated/oxygen-free wire w/ferrite beads (when appropriate), for myself, as... 
Is there a solid fuse-like item that I can use in place of a fuse, to bypass it?
     30+ years ago: I tried some of the following*, in my first pair of Magnepans, to see if I could discern an improvement, before simply bypassing the fuse holder/attenuator circuit entirely (moved & resoldered one wire).      I'd never con... 
For all you Bose 901 Haters!
                      "What kind of power cables should I get for that?"                                         For BEST sound: NONE!  
For all you Bose 901 Haters!
