New BMI Whale Elite Power Cord
Thanks guys- appreciate the responses. Hey Bruce- great to hear from you! Long time no speak. Glad ot hear the FIM is working out well. Haven't been able to audition it- as I may have told you, up here in Canada, we don't have such luxuries, and o... 
New BMI Whale Elite Power Cord
Thanks for the response. I have read some great reviews on SOME of these cords- but wouldn't it be great to find a review where they where ALL the big boys were included- i.e. Shunyata KC; FIM Gold; Fat Boy Electraglide; NBS; BMI Whale, etc. Oh we... 
Shakti Stone?
David- don't let Leaf's skepticism affect you (nothin' personal Leafs- by the way, are you in Toronto? just a hunch!!). I would pay most attention to the posts from those who actually HAVE tried the Stones (or own them, like myself). Again, I agre... 
Shakti Stone?

Has anyone auditioned the ARC LS16 pre?
I use the ARC LS16- great piece. Very natural sound, mates well w SS amps as well (I use Theta Dreadnaught,with a vertical bi-amp to Totem speakers). Also works well in a 2-channel/home theater 'combo' environment. You won't be disappointed. If yo...

MISSING THE POINT?
I don't have the time to check out new music- but wish I did. Since my system has improved, I am appreciating a lot of stuff all over again- particularily my early '60's Blue Note Jazz collection- new appreciation for Wayne Shorter's 'Speak no Evi...

Where to buy lead shot
Here's where I will be getting my lead- www.welcocastings.com.(a Canadian lead manufacturer/distributor- they will ship around the world) I am actually going to do the ultimate- a 'hot lead pour' into my speaker stands. Welco can do this, they act...
