White power cords
Audiomica Labs has off-white cords but only in their top of the line Consequence series I'm told.

$16K new/used speaker question?
Acoustic Zen Crescendo's are one of my favorites. Sounds Of Silence sells them for way below list if ever interested. I'm just a happy customer. 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
Dealers don't sell cables at retail and if you have ever bought cables at retail them you should look for a new dealer!

So Mr Lee gives discounts meaning he sells direct bypassing dealers.  
Looking for a power cable upgrade
I use a bunch of the Nanotec ac cords and love them,  they now sell below the $500 (I paid more for my own!)http://www.audioasylumtrader.com/ca/listing/Power-Cords/Nanotec-direct-from-Japan/Model-PS-3J-with-F... 
Turntable isolation...
I considered a Minus-k but the weight distribution thing turned me off went with a Vibraplane and am thrilled!

Comparing the Pass Labs XA30.5 to the XA 30.8
Did anyone compare the x30.8 to the Merrill Thors or Veritas amps? I heard them side by side and the Thor's were clearly faster and cleaner a no contest. 
Has anyone heard the new North American products preamp and amp?
This gear (H-Cat) was discussed at length years ago and there were many concerns around the company and very few found the gear to live up to what was advertised. Sounds like just more rhetoric to me.

And you've heard this yourself?  I doubt it! How can you talk about this cable without ever listening.
