Footers- Break In? Such A Change.
+1 @ozzy The difference with good platforms is very distinct and quantifiable. Live Vibe platforms also have a break in period, but it is so worth it.  
Fake AQ cables
It couldn't have happened to someone more deserving.  
New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones)
@c_avila1  Why don't you do that and report back?  
Anthony (Tony) Cordesman has passed away
I didn't share his personal tastes in gear, but I always respected his clear and organized approach to reviews. He was no nonsense without being sterile. He was a very intelligent and good man. I will miss him.  
Easy Come Easy Go…….BOOM!
Well, on the plus side, it'll be fun shopping for a new system. Best of luck to you.  
Borresen Loudspeakers
@ronboco  I thought the same thing the second that I saw them!

Still Looking for a DAC - Audio Mirror Tubadour v and ANK Audio 5.1
I agree with soix. All digital cables sound very different.

@hasmarto  I was kind of hoping that you'd go with the top-of-the-line ANK, because they're so musical and I wanted to hear your opinion.   
Amp upgrade, speaker cables or both
Hi Jerry I would never say that cables are as important as an amplifier or preamplifier. I don't think that they are. However, by their definition as part of the chain leading to the sound that reaches our ears, they are a component. I'm not sur...

@carlsbad2  "Second point: cables aren’t a component." Oops! Wrong! I think that most agreed a long time ago that they are after realizing the influence that they have on the sound of our systems.   
In need of a pair of MCA11FC-H143 SEAS midrange woofers
If you have the original drivers, Madisound or some other company can fix them to as good as new. You search won't be in vain.   
Need stand recommendation for Gershman studio IIs
Another thug comment from down deep. Those are excellent speakers and well worth it. Sound Anchors are a good suggestion as @soix  said.  
The Winter Brothers
The live and studio White Trash albums are both great. Rick Derringer is up there with the greats, and Johnny is of course...Johnny!  
Need stand recommendation for Gershman studio IIs
Good speakers will always benefit from the best available stands. It would not be foolish to spend $1500.
