Chinese fake cables How fake, how good?
The quality of what they are selling, and the fact that they are using other manufacturers names are two separate issues. Those other companies have spent time and money to get their names recognized, wether or not you are a believer in their “sna... 
Most enduring audio purchase
Vandersteen 3A Signatures.  
Nordost Valhalla vs. SR Atmosphere Euphoria speaker cables
I’m confused. The atmosphere is a step down from the Galileo. Unsure as to why that should be an improvement 
Help with upgrade bug...
While changing the power conditioner might indeed help the sound, I don’t believe it would improve the qualities you are asking for. It can reduce background noise, boost clarity and impact, but not so much the soundstage. I’m sure some have notic...

Unless it’s communicated to the consumer, how do we know what, or if any changes have been made. I don’t assume, and havnt heard Richard anything at all in the many interviews between those times. No reason to change if there’s no improvements, an...

Don’t think anyone has said it’s not better, I have no doubt that it is. Richard dosnt make changes lightly and certainly not if it’s not going to be an improvement. Having said that, 17 years is a heck of long time, and personally I’ll pay more t...

Im sure they will continue to do as well as ever, I was just hoping for some really big changes. I remeber I bought my 3a signatures somewhere around 2003, and there havnt been any changes in the 17 years since. Was hoping for some upgraded driver...

So after all this time, no major improvements? Sounds a bit anticlimactic  
Tidal/OPPO streaming issue
I picked up a Oppo 203 thinking I could use it to stream with, but I have not figured out I can do that, no menus etc. the only thing I can find is what appears to be a place to show servers on the network, that maybe could select from and stream.

I wonder if they’ll do a new 3, I always loved that speaker. 
KEF LS50W who has them?
I’ve had multiple problems with playing music through my iPad. If I switch apps, or listen to one song a short time and switch to another, it stops playing until I restart. I had tried the B&w duos and I couldn’t get those to play more than a ... 
Diminishing Returns
I’d agree with the Vandersteens, though I’d step up to the 3As for a bit under 2k. 
Synergistic Power Cell 12, SX, PS Audio P20
David, I’m not sure they considered someone also using a power regenerator along with their product. Spoke with the dealer about that specific subject and he recommended the P20 first( with an SR power cable and fuse of course, lol) and then plug ... 
Synergistic Power Cell 12, SX, PS Audio P20
Just purchased one with the Galileo power cord, could for tell a difference. At the dealer I was listening on a McIntosh 352 ( I have one on order currently with them) on a pair of standmount Sonus Fabers, listening at much lower levels than I nor... 
Synergistic Power Cell 12, SX, PS Audio P20
My goal is better sound. The fact that the PSA does more is not as relevant to me. Great to have the protection, but end goal is better sound. And I was wonder about plugging one into the other, and I would think plug the SR in to the PSA?
