Audio Horizon Preamp
Here's an older review of the TP 2.1 linestage and matching phono stage: http://www.10audio.com/audio_horizons_tp8_tp2-1.htm  
Audio Research Reference 2 vs. Lamm LL
Have you considered an Audio Horizons preamp? Here is a link to a review of their phono stage from a prominent reviewer: http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/audiohorizons/phono.html  
VTL 5.5 vs. Lamm LL2?
Why wouldn't you want to know more about the Audio Horizons preamp? Until you try one in your own system, you'll always wonder "what if..?" http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?aamps&1168950273&read&keyw&zzaudio=horizons

Joe, Just enjoy what you have now in your system and send the extra money to your kids in college. (o: ( I'm just kidding, okay?)

Hey Mark! I'm glad to see that you found a deal on an upgraded 2.0 model. Enjoy the music. By the way. Has anyone spoken with Victor lately? He was to post upgrade and update information a while back and he has disappeared from this thread. I hope...

Just a reminder to new as well as current AH preamp owners that the AH preamp does indeed invert phase and simply reversing your speaker cable polarity corrects this issue.

Pat, I only had your cables playing for a short time, maybe 70 hours on the 1.5M and 20 hours on the 1M, so they'll both need some further break-in before they probably sound their best. I initially had only the 1.5M hooked up from my pre to amp s...

Review: KCI Silkworm Plus Interconnect
Nice review, Howard. I recently had the good fortune to have a pair of the new Silkworm+ in my system on loan from another owner. Although they were in my system for a relatively short time, connected from preamp to amp, I was able to get a good d...

Oh, great! How about us poor dolts that already have an older model in need of upgrading? I know the economy's tough, Joseph. Please pass the savings on to current owners as well. 
Shuguang Treasure tubes....
It's kind of sad that this new Treasure KT88 tube needs 300 hours to fully break in when the overall life of the tube is @5000 hours. I guess it's worth it if they sound that remarkable.

Reference 3a Dulcet upgrades
The Reference 3a speaker line is really great for those who want purity of sound. I have been experimenting with different wire for the internals of my Dulcet mini-monitors and have found my dream wire, a new pure copper litz design from Marigo. T... 
Review: Aria WV5 XL (Line Stage only) Tube preamp
John, I'm glad that JD was able to come up with a better shielded interconnect for you. I definitely have my eye on trying one of his cables. Meanwhile, I am testing several cables in my system and need a few weeks of further break-in and evaluati...
