NBS DEMO PROFESSIONAL RCA 1,2 m vs McIntosh cable XLR CBA1M
NBS = nothing but $hit. Several years ago someone took apart some NBS cables and found them to be plain Home Depot cables that had just been placed in some fancy shielding. Buyer beware    
Stenheim Alumine 3 vs. Sonus Faber Amati G5
Just another perspective but personally I'm not a Sonas Faber fan, yes very musical but just doesn't move me like a Jeff Joseph speaker does. At Axpona this year a pair of Franco Serblin Ktema speakers were one of my favorites. Went back at least ... 
The best plug in filter ever!
Prior to the holiday weekend I received a 2nd Telos Mini Quantum Resonator and I'm thrilled with the 2nd one. Things are more dynamic and just more life-like. This one is plugged directly into the dedicated line.  
Does AudioGon charge Sales Tax?
I believe Agon does not but the store you are buying from, depending on the State they are located in, will. What particular amp are you looking to buy?  
Borresen X3
I heard them Saturday and thought they sounded very nice but maybe tilted a bit to the upper frequencies. Went back on the last day and and again heard the same thing. Although musical don't think I could live with them for the long term. Maybe wi...

A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum
@rauliruegas that pic you sent mijostyn to post of your Ortofon MC 3000 Mk II well the body of the cartridge looks perfectly square BUT the cantilever looks skewed! Your thoughts?  
Stealth Audio Cables - Customer Service - Seeking Your Thoughts
@jl35 but Stealth isn't saying this, they are willing to do the work just at a HUGE cost.

Wow looks like one of the more highly polished diamonds I've ever seen.   
Stealth Audio Cables - Customer Service - Seeking Your Thoughts
@joseph796 I agree seems unacceptable. It would be the last time I'd buy a Stealth cable. So they lost some sales and more importantly good faith. Today the Internet is very powerful hopefully they will see this thread and reconsider.  
Holo Spring DAC Warranty -- transferable?
Curious how would a company know how many "owned" the product, unless each owner registered it after buying?  
Audio / Stereo Rack
@rsf507 Over your head it will remain, no need to make any changes @pindac don't know what you are saying? I've not posted anything in this thread so it must be over YOUR head whatever it is!  
Power cable
@shtr74sims what's the most you want to spend on an ac cable?  
A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum
@pindac "I now feel based on knowledge of the VAS effect, resulting from the work carried out by this service,  that the MSL Plat' Cart', is now a MSL/VAS Plat' Cart' and will be a unique/bespoke version of this model with a VAS interpretation fo... 
Perlisten S5t
@steve59 you know I think you are right. At Axpona I kept going back to listen to the S7t speakers and while the bass was quick, tight and controlled there just wasn't something right about all images. I even commented to the guy running the room ...
