Tubes vs Solid State
Bifwynne, Got a pair of Zeros that I need to get around to selling. slap @gmail onto my username and shoot me an e-mail if interested. 
VPI SDS help
An old thread, but I wondered if Radioheadokplayer ever got this combo to work? Or anyone else try to pair an SDS with the Rock? 
I'm looking for a nice set of cans.
You may regret stepping foot over there, but HeadFi is the go-to internet resource for headphones. Some looong threads, but also some people who know their stuff. With your requirements, you will need closed headphones. Too much leakage in and out... 
Upgrade rainmakers to hawks,clues,tekton or fritz?
Based on a friend's recommendations, I would add Nola Boxers to that list. Search the threads here for impressions. And the Fritz speakers are great.

And as I mentioned earlier on, please pass along our deep appreciation for Paul sharing his passions and experience with us here. Deeply appreciated by this community. Hearing of his passing will make me appreciate all the more the opportunity to ... 
Wyred 4 sound mint vs. peachtree nova
W4S Mint is probably too new for many or any folks here to have much experience. Certainly these seem very comparable products. Only thing I have seen written up on the Mint is the 6moons review. And in general, Walter at Underwood has never steer...

That is a real loss for this forum. Paul's comments were always very appreciated here. I hope that there is a way that we can let his loved ones know how valued he was and how deeply missed he will be by this online community. 
AKFest, who's going?
Oh I will certainly be by to say hi. Ozzy, good to see you will be there too, having seen you around these forums for a while. Ryan, that's good to hear about the Aurora updates. Really looking forward to hearing the other models you offer. Those ... 
Just sold my Dynavector XV-1s
More and more I think it is important to document the condition of a piece of equipment prior to shipping. Not just photos but also a video with evidence of the date which shows that the equipment is working. And then pay for packing by FedEx etc ... 
AKFest, who's going?
I will be there and am very much looking forward to your rooms. I think the Eastern Electric pairing should be excellent. I have really liked their gear. 
recommendations for quality line volume control
I might have some of these attenuators in a drawer somewhere. add gmail.com to my user name and shoot me an e-mail if interested (I sure miss being able to e-mail A'gon members directly...). 
Smithsonian Folkways FLAC Downloads
Thanks for this thread Rosedanny. I wasn't aware that there were Folkways albums available on FLAC. Very cool. I'd love to know any stellar sounding ones you may come across. 
Is Ortofon "Salsa MC better than Dynavector 10X5?
Again, I am not sure that a retip is what is called for here if you only have 150 hrs on the cart. Unless you got it used and the seller was not honest with the actual hours. If you don't want to retip but a new tip is in fact what is needed, mayb... 
what is an ideal tube amp
Ramy, I have an S-30 Mk II that I haven't gotten around to listing due to the difficulties with this site recently. Add gmail to my username here and e-mail me if interested. A fabulous amp but no does not work well with my new speakers. If you li... 
Amp is plugged to the wall, why use a conditioner?
+1 on Running Springs.The reviews on them often mention dynamics of the amps not being constrained. A real selling point for their line of conditioners. I just compared a PS Audio P300 power regenerator on my front end (everything but the amp) to ...
