| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? George- I own an LSA which I use in a second system and have swapped it in for my Doshi in my big rig and it acquits itself very well. I think it's one of the best values in audio, providing 80% of the performance for 5% of the cost. But you're no... | |

And for the life of me, I cannot imagine spending hours and hours listening for differences in good power cords. But after drilling a little deeper in... | |
