GoldenEar Triton One
I have had my Triton Ones since January 2015 in a strictly 2 channel high end system. The soundstage extends way beyond the speakers, imaging is perfect, bass is to die for, mids are extremely smooth and the highs are very sweet with the perfect a... 
GoldenEar Triton One
So what, almost all of our cell phones are made in China too. You have to remember this is an American company, manufacturing in China. It's not a Chinese owned company. 
How old are your speakers
I sold a pair of Vandersteen 2ci speakers that I had owned and used for 24 years. 
IsoTek System Enhancer: Can it improve the sound?
Yes it will improve the system. Case in point: last week I took delivery of a new Wyred Dac 2 from the factory. I have been both listening to the unit and burning it in with the Isotek disc. Big improvement in the sound during the past week. All p... 
How is a CD read?
Perhaps the cd was recorded in something other than 2 channel stereo and that is why some of the information is weak. 
Hooking up a REL sub using a 2-cored cable
Why not just call the guy and ask him how he did it? 
Shunyata Power cords Too Boomy and screechy?
My main system has 9 Shunyata power cords and 3 Hydra conditioners and I do not get any screeching or boomy bass. The Kimber silver streak cables are quite bright and wouldn't work in my system. 
PrimaLuna ProLogue Integrated - Help Needed
I would try a different amp to be sure it isn't the problem. The triton 2 uses a powered woofer, perhaps there is an issue with them. When I bought my Triton 1, the dealer made 3 trips to my house because one of my speakers was bad, as was the rep...

to replace PB-8 Transparent Plus BiCable
doubtful you will hear that much of a difference if replacing them. Wouldn't waste the money. 
Woofer pumping WHY??
Get a KAB rumble filter for 189 and problem is solved. I had the same problem with my Scout turntable, I tried relocating the turntable to various locations and using all kinds of platforms under the turntable and nothing helped. Put the rumble fi...

SACD transport for W4S DAC2 DSD SE?
Not sure but you may want to check with them. The I squared bus (hdmi) may allow it but best to check with them. You won't get sacd via the coax or optical connection. 
KIND OF BLUE
I received my MOFI Kind of Blue SACD a couple weeks or so ago. I am very pleased with the quality and feel it was worth the 30.00. My only irritation is that the serial number is in the low 300 and this was ordered so long ago. I really thought I ... 
Pro-ject Xtension 10 vs. VPI Prime vs. Amadeus
For 3500, the VPI Prime is hard to beat. The 3D arm is one reason it's called Prime. The VPI tables are reliable as Hell and do not need constant tweaking. They sound like music.
