Gas or Charcoal
XL Big Green Egg with mesquite, hickory and other lumps charcoals and hardwood chunks (unburned for smoking meats) of apple, pecan, hickory, mesquite and whatever else I can find. It is my opinion that if you haven't tried a big green egg, do so. ... 
Best U.S.A. speakers?
No mention of Wilson yet? 
Looking for a good balanced preamp: Atma MP-3?
Forgot to say that I use my BAT with hybrid monoblocks too. Which monos are you looking at? 
Looking for a good balanced preamp: Atma MP-3?
The BAT pre-amps are pretty dang good if you ask me. 
Eichmann Bayonet plugs user experience
I have some, and they do have the potential to seperate. However, you have to bend them to make that happen, so just be gentle with them (as you should with all hifi equipment). Further, if they do seperate, the connectors are still usable; it is ... 
C45 vs C220 premplifier
What about the C46? They make the C500T and the C100T as well. www.mcintoshlabs.com 
Cheap tweak from Virtual Dynamics:
The Vibratite is the missing link, I think. I have always wanted to tighten my drivers' screws, but I always thought I would just keep having to do it, and that they would eventually strip. Great solution! 
VDC at a tube preamp's output
I have always wondered how the DC is removed in the Atmasphere design. Anyone know? 
Tube upgrade for Shanling A3000
Honestly, replacing 8 fuses would be extremely expensive compared to the price of the unit. I would not think that the funds spent on that could not do more improvement somewhere else. 
Top ten tube preamps
Well I will add one I think is pretty good. It isn't anywhere near as expensive as the others mentioned, but I think equipment should be a balance of price and performance. It is fully balanced and tubed, the Cary SLP-2002. 
Something for Everyone in Super High Fidelity
As an audiophile with a pretty good system, I will admit that I like to listen to rap on my own system. I also listen to electronic, classical, classic rock, rock, bluegrass, Norah/Allison/etc..., pop (for lack of a better descriptor), latin, sout... 
Looking for an integrated tube amp USA or Europe
I love my SLI-80 but the going used price is about 1800 rather than 1500. It is quite powerful for a tubed integrated so it can drive more speakers than other tubed integrateds.

I am using a Cary SLI-80 with the Antal ESw. I think it is great! 
To Former owners of Jolida JD 100
I second Arthurs assessment though I would point out that it depends on your system and how well it integrates with your other components so you have to take each opinion in context.R 
Triangle Antal ESW speakers experience please
Actually, Arthur is my buddy that I was hoping would chime in. We have not heard the RS6s through my system or the Antals driven by his system. Hopefully he will respond again to help you with the comparison.I would suggest treating the room immed...
