Recommendation for a replacement speaker cable
Another vote for Canare 4S11. I have them in two separate systems! 
Message from the Past: We were never against tone controls
One of many reasons I love McIntosh so much. Good tone controls. A DB or two of boost or cut, here and  there makes iffy and lousy sounding CD’s listenable and enjoyable. Another plus is as we all get older and our hearing starts suffering, tone c...

I am proudly banned from purchasing from them after I corrected the owner on a classified ad they posted on Audiogon.  They were selling one of the older variations of the Technics SL1200, it may have been a Mark 5 or 6.   He stated it is the same... 
USB driver for metronome c3a
You could try calling them.  It may be worth your while.  Cant cost more than 20.00 or so to call France.

@jon_5912,McIntosh does not have rolled off highs, what you are stating is a fallacy.  If you had heard a Mac you wouldn’t have made that statement.  
McIntosh fuse changeout to make better sound
Georgehifi,  I concur a million percent. A fuse is a fuse is a fuse. If you guys want to blow money needlessly, send it to me. I will spend the money wisely😂🤣.  I will not get into  a flame war over this, it is ONLY my opinion.  
DCS Verdi Encore Faulty any help advise appreciated
Since it was a very expensive piece of gear, why not send it back to DCS and get it fixed the right way?  That way, there will be no second guessing.  
Power strips- too many choices
What about a Shunyata Defender 8 or 12?  I believe Music Direct is selling the 8 with an excellent Shunyata power cord for around a grand.  It is more than a power strip, it has the Defender circuitry built in as well.

Just ordered a vpi avenger
If it were I, I would expect to pay extra for the service considering  it is 120 miles round trip, not to mention the trip time.  I bought my Prime at Audio Connections which is 250 miles from my home, one way.  I had them set the entire turntable...

I bought a VPI Prime from Johnny in 2016.  Johnny is one of the best and most honest in the business.
