What's the best Dac for the money
I'd suggest the Wyred 4 Sound DAC-2 DSD SE with Femto clock upgrade, all for under 3K. 
Purist Audio Design
ALL cables have a sound you have to find the ones that match your priorities. Some like a black black background, some are more extended on top some more extended at the bottom. 
Cost effective Schumann Resonator
I've been listening to the original RR-77 for many years and it does do everything the manufacturer claims and I've too have felt "relaxed" during and after listening sessions. 
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
Matt didn't Alex say somewhere that he shipped the DSD-S with like 700 hrs already logged on the unit? (Don't really want to go thru all the threads but I do remember something to this effect).

His search will NEVER end! Seems Matt is more interested in equipment than muzic. 
Taralabs cables
I can't but think that people that buy such high priced cables are not audiophiles but simply want to say I own a $500,000 music system! It's sad that those of us mere mortals will never hear such a product. 
Preamps better than Parasound JC-2 ?
I'd definetly be keeping the TVC, sounds like the JC is not a good "fit" in your system. Personnally I've heard several Parasound gear and have never been impressed. I tried myself to like their JC-3 phono but for a solid state found it noisy!Keep...

Brinkmann/Spiral Groove/TW Acustic Black Night...?
I like to hear things like this. It reflects bad on the manufacturer not the dealer IMHO.Dealers tell all, keep us informed. 
Any listening experience of TTW TTs?
Do a search you will find LOTS of negative comments as well from speed issues to communication issues. 
Hyperion hps-968 vs Verity Audio Parsifal Encore
Parsifals are very nice, a bit to "polite" for me. I'm lusting after some Acoustic Zen Cresendos after hearing them if now I can only afford them! 
Is the BAlabo BC-1 MKII Preamp the reigning King?
If all knew the inside industry "stories" of Mr. Valin it would be very clear how he comes to these conclusions. 
What Power Cord can improve clarity and bass slam?
Any PAD cable but as you go up the line the bass gets deeper and more controlled (as does just about everything else). 
AZ Adagio vs Crescendo?
Musicgeorge11 so for $14,000 you are just getting better bass, is that what you are trying to say? Adagios retail at $4200 whereas the Crescendos retail at $18,000. I listen to all types of music and want bass only if it's in the recording, nothin... 
Stand out phono stages
No_regrets there's a guy somewhere on these forums that had some very highly regarded phono units like the ypsilon and zanden and sold them for the NVO, do a search but it was a year or so ago. The importer will tell you of another guy who sells h...
