Heavy Power Cords
Easy,Take a piece of black teflon heatshrink tubing (1/2" O.D. ?) carefully cut or trim it to the appropriate length with scissors or a razor blade and stretch it over the end of the power cord's IEC.Some lube that dries will help slip it on easier. 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
Excellent response Kijanki !A more film-like video is almost like a more tube-like audio presentation.I ask myself which is more "real" ? Depends on preferences of course, for video I like Pioneer Kuro Plasma, for digital audio it's CEC and Museat...

Best sound ? Von Schweikert Vr 4jr or Aerial 10 t
Keep the 10T's and go for a pair of Aerial 20T's (if you can) down the road, you'll NEVER look back.I'm figuring a way to get a pair into my place, they're that good. 
Neighbor Complaining...
Get a house, headphones or a louisville slugger. 
With $20,000 in your hand, what speaker would you
(Depending on amplification of course)Aerial 20T V-2 or Intuitive Designs Delta Gammas 
Most agreed upon best speaker?

Effects of Power Outages Where You Live
Foster,It had an "effect" on me when I was doing an auto exchange in Dublin, near Columbus.My metal ratchet nylon tie-downs blew off my trailer, then I watched sheets of plywood and plastic tarps lift off the roof of the dealership where they were... 
Install IEC male socket or not??
The only alternative I came up with would be to take an IEC inlet and trace it (scribe) to a small, square piece of material, cut it out to perfect size, then use it as an overlay-template guide.Surely, a company that does mods must use some moder... 
Install IEC male socket or not??
I've done this on many pieces of equipment, but would like to find the "appropriate" punch ? to do the job more effectively without the tedious bullshit, or fear of ruining.I looked into Greenlee from McMaster-Carr, but they don't seem to have the... 
Maximum Indifference Must Hear
Thanks T_boneYou're right, way too many talented bands get "passed-off" and sent to "forgotten" land, then when you discover them, their outta print.I seek improvisation, something unpredictable, keeps your interest, makes you want to listen all t... 
Maximum Indifference Must Hear
Eric,Good luck finding Transmutations Of Supposed Angels on CD.I bought the last new outta print yesterday at Amazon.com from somewhere in France.There's a used one remaining or you can download in MP3 like I did till you find it.Their self-titled... 
Did anyone hear the Cardas "Clear Beyond"...
I own and like Cardas speaker wires, but these are "Clearly Beyond" my budget in this wonderful economy. 
Best of Brian Auger's Oblivion Express on CD?
I have this (double) CD and another best of compilation from Tongue & Groove called Augernization.A stupid little sticker on the shrinkwrap ain't much of a guarantee now that you mentioned.Maybe a call or email to Chronicles or Polygram Record... 
Circuit City is Closing, Liquidating
Circuit City was a "quieter" atmasphere overall (if that's any consolation)I can't even think straight entering Best Buy with boom-box-rap-crap blasting and kids SCREAMING over the PA system.
