Ethernet cables
why not get mesh network and put one of the access points close to your system. You can then use short Ethernet cable of better quality than you would have with your 100ft run.    @audphile1 Big +1, and then you don’t have to go to the expense ... 
Static electricity and my Denafrips do not get along
Glad you found an effective solution. What is the copper wire attached to in your room?  
Why do we demand so much from our systems?
You'll be dissatisfied until you achieve wisdom or until you run out of money. @dweller Ha!  Very Zen.

Why do we demand so much from our systems?
If you’re an audiophile it’s a labor of love and the search for something better is part of the fun. You could drive a Toyota Corolla your whole life and get from here to there. A Porsche or Ferrari is much more expensive, more labor intensive, mo... 
Obvious Epiphany
I’ve got a similar issue in reverse the left was louder than the right.  I’ve found that sometimes room treatments can help balance things out.  In one instance, a half-round piece about 5’ tall against the wall between the speakers did the trick ...

Why not use spades?

I’d get a room humidifier and leave it on set it to 55% humidity, and when you’re ready to listen just turn it off.  I use this one that works well and is cool air so very energy efficient… https://www.amazon.com/AIRCARE-5D6-700-4-Speed-Humidifie... 
Why so many ARC Ref 6SE preamps up for sale?
Over the past two months there were like 7 Ref 6es listed internationally and none in the US. What the hell are you even talking about? You’ve apparently been here about 23 years and started six threads, and THIS is where you wanna go???  What’s y...

@jriggy This one has been recommended here and can be had up to 98 ft.  Hope this helps, and best of luck. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B087C8K4N5/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_6?smid=A1EA54VWB150Z7&amp=undefined&th=1  
Integrated for Devore O/93
Sounds like in your heart you like the Mastersound, and I’d say follow your heart. One other thing I’d say is to step up to a separate phono stage — it’s too important to compromise with an integrated’s phono stage IMHO. Best of luck.

@rbautista Congrats!  Look forward to your future impressions/thoughts.  
Estelon's AURA Speaker Arrives at Reviewer/Artist Greg Petan's NYC Loft, Part 1!
Way cool art — especially love that first piece and, of course, the one of the musician. Have to say I was pretty surprised at the Krell phono pre. Not that it’s not a great piece, but Krell isn’t exactly known for phono preamps. Likewise a little... 
Led Zep Fool in the Rain
@toddalin GREAT tune!!!  And thanks for sharing!  It’s kinda like a jazz meets Steely Dan kinda fusion vibe, and you’re right — the drums are absolutely money on this.  I think a lotta country/blues players are highly underrated, and this lays tha...

@steve59 To be honest, I didn’t even understand your point.
