Did anybody try a Boston Audio Mat1 on their VPI
Thanks everybody for the replies. My friend has one which he said I can try. I'll give it a go, once he finds it. 
Most "Musical" sounding speaker cable under $1000
Like some others suggested, try clear day cables. Their double shotguns are very good. Paul is great to deal. Usually he has loaner pairs that you can try without buying first. Synergy was very good ims, and I usually don't like silver based cable... 
Pass Aleph 5 vs. Pass XA 30.5 / 60.5
I'm pretty sure he means subwoofer. I had an aleph 5 years ago.What a beautiful sounding amp. The only drawback was its bass, it was a little loose. 
Which cartridge do you use with the vpi classic?
I use a dynavector xx2 Mk2 with a premium maxxed out k&k phono stage.Sounds really good. 
Triode LABS C7 FIGURE 8 POWER-CORD
I have a couple of Pete's cords. They are very nice and not only for the money. They fair well against cords costing much more. Pete is a real nice guy and a pleasure to deal with.I'm sampling his new 7 gauge cord. It is his best cord yet. Very sm... 
Two and a half hour audition of the Raidho C1.1
I have to agree with shakeydeal. If you haven't compared them in the same system and room it's not a fair comparison, IMHO 
what is an ideal tube amp

Differences between SR Tesla and Supra Sword
Joncourage, you should be very happy with the clear day double shotguns.They are very good for the money and can compete with some cables costing much more IMHO :) 
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?
If anybody gets a chance to hear the new First Watt SIT amps with their mk.4's, please let us know how it sounds? 
Tubes for your K&K Maxxed Out Phono?
I have a premium maxed-out k&k phonostage. It is an excellent unit. Give it at least 200 hrs. to burn in. Those caps are pretty big, they need some time to open up.I made Kevin put the Mondorf s/g/o caps in mine. I am really enjoying the sound... 
Spectron MIII mk II owner's question.
When I upgraded my amp from a SE to a mk.2 I made Simon put the new at the time Cuft V-caps instead of the tin foil teflons. I couldn't be happier. It gave the amp a beautiful natural tone, which most Class d amps are missing. Did anybody else put... 
Speaker cable recommendations please
Try clear day cables. The double shotguns are very good for the money. 
Smooth/Musical Bookshelves upto $1500 - $2000
Sounds like your discribing Fritz carbon 7's to me.Nice full sound with good bass. Top end could be more open, but very musical speakers. 
I have a AC Regenerator. Get dedicated line too?
Yes, my unit is the older style without the LED readout. I'm very happy with the unit thou! I had a dedicated line before I bought the APS, so I don't know if that helps but it can't hurt!
