Audio Research Pre-Amp advice
There’s an Ls28 for sale on eBay for $5500. It doesn’t say SE. A little over 1000 hrs on the tubes.  
Breaking news! Jays Audio is moving to Texas and takes interest in McIntosh
@jastralfu I’m pretty sure that your correct. He couldn’t audition the 901’s because he didn’t have the right connection(biwire) for his speakers. I think he actually had those amps listed here on Audiogon.  
Improving a stone rack
@jallan I’m not as well versed on granites and types of rocks as you, just going by what I was told. I don’t doubt anything you’ve said. I definitely agree that Valerio Alcora is a very nice guy and great rep for his company. I emailed the company... 
Improving a stone rack

Speaker and Cable Suggestions Please
Audio Research to me has always been a safe choice in amplification. I once owned a Vt-100 amp and never felt I was missing anything, even after upgrading to another amp still look back on it as a very good amp. Cable wise, Cerious Technologies Gr... 
Please recommend decoupling footers for DAC
My components with the exception being my monoblocks are all sitting on a very old inexpensive 25 year Target rack. What has given me great performance is most but not all components are now sitting on top of either new or used Symposium Acoustics... 
Adona with symposium platforms
I appreciate both of your responses. Having already invested quite a bit of money in Symposium products, I didn’t want to have to sell off my equipment. I was told by one person that Symposium platforms on Symposium racks are subtractive in regard... 
What cable companies make the best cables and sell them directly?
The cables that I use that sound good in my system at a reasonable price are Cerious Technologies Graphene Matrix power cords.   
Great Rock Bassists your Top 10.Rock not Jazz. But Hey what about Reggae
@tylermunns  of course I have heard of Louis Johnson of the Bros. Johnson. When I was growing up, the two best known r@b guitarist were Louis Johnson and Larry Graham. My ex-brother in law actually was pretty good, but issues within the band brok...
