What Would you Trade your System FOR?
I think my rig is not enough to trade for anything this tired old world needs. So I'll continue to pray for God's love and guidance for all. Peace 
JMLab Micro Utopia vs Meadowlark Blue Heron
I agree with Phill23. Meadowlark spkrs have NOTHING to do with midfi. Can't comment on the JM stuff-let your ears be the judge. Good luck. 
Is there anyone who came back from tubes to SS?
I had Audible Illusions mod3 once and went to a Aragon 24k because I had the Aragon 4004. I was thinking of synergy and though that has it's merits the tube pre and ss amp was a great combo. I now have a all tube rig(ARS L7,Anthem Amp1,Sonicfronti... 
Digital Interconnect Questions
I have to agree with zugswang. I have tried various links(jenalabs,stealth,tributaries)and the canare cable is great and inexpensive(LV77S) Good listening. 
wich transport?
I have the sfd1 mk2 with a counterpoint transport. Although the counterpoint is no more I like the sound. I agree with the above posts on synergy. More important is the link between the two units. May I suggest the canare digital cable. Just purch... 
Any other tubes out there?
Thanks everyone for there advise. I plan on doing some tube rolling in the near future for my LS7 and SF dac. Good listening.

I have a Counterpoint transport that only outputs when it's reading a disc but have not encountered any pops or thumps. Check your connections or try another dac to see what unit may giving you problems. Best of luck. BTW I use a Sonicfrontiers da... 
EL34 Tubes for Conrad-Johnson MV-55

Sound proofing listening room
Philefreak your problem is similar to mine. I posted a thread for advise for a loft problem-wanted to keep the sound in the loft area. I did come to a solution I hope will work. I am going to buy some screens that you use as dividers and change th...

Forgot to add my spkrs: Meadowlark Kestrals which are about a foot and a half from the wall. Thanks Bret 
Tube fakes, any experts out there?
Again thanks to Rmml. Checked out the link and went to the closet to check those Bugle Boys. All is well and I will sink them into my Sonicfrontiers dac. Ebay seems to have the ball when it comes to NOS. Lots of Amperex tubes. 
Sonic Frontiers Service
I did send a email about a week ago myself Justlisten but alas no one home. Everybody can't be on vaction or can they? 
Jazz Review: Miles Davis
SD This is great! I wish to thank you for such a detailed read on the life and music of Mr. Davis. May I include another piece of music that may be of interest-Miles Davis live around the world. This cd has some of his old and some of his later re... 
Maintaining an Even Keel.
Hey Dekay, What if your transport is on a shelf that is seperate from the rest of your rack? I have a older target rack with the top shelf on four points. The points screw in and I just adjusted them to where all the points are the same.(screwed a...
