Please, help me choose speakers for my Graaf GM200
Any speaker with Beryllium tweeters, me thinks. 
Any users of Teresonic Clarison speaker cables?
The silver or 24K gold are both outstanding, better IMHO then the Nordost Vahalla's. 
The 3 kings: Esoteric K01,EMM XDS1,Meridian 808.3
LOL. I can now say the GNSC Wadia S7i, is bar none, the greatest CDP/DAC known to ma. Now, if I put a :) face to this, will some of you humorless idiots get it? 
Concert fidelity amps
I am running the CF 080 LS/X with a Burmester 911 MK3 amp into Venture CR-8 Signature speakers. I used to have a pair of Artemis EOS (loved them!) but without the big base enclosure. I am also using Steve @ Great Northern Sound Company, but he is ... 
Concert Fidelity audition program
I am also using my CF 080 LS/X with Venture speakers-the CR-8 Signatures. My next upgrade will be bigger Venture speakers, when I move my system to a much larger room. I am using a Burmester 911 MK3 amp and the synergy between these units is awesome. 
Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ?
IMHO, I really like my new Burmester 911 MK3. Can't wait till the MK4 comes out.:) 
Any one compared a Lampizator to Weiss 202 DAC?
I have always been a fan of Lukas. I love his passion and tinkering with audio gear. But, I have also respected Steve at Great Northern Sound Company (another modder-but worked many years at Wadia), and bought the new Wadia S7I with GNSC Statement... 
All time favorite speaker cables
FMS Nexus 3 is a winner! (IMHO:)) 
Personal amp evolution
Now have Burmester 911 MK3. Very happy happy.:) 
Best preamp for Symphonic Line RG4 MK4
I had a SL RG1 MK3 many years ago. I used a modified Klimo Merlin preamp to great success. 
Review: CH Technologies X15 power cord Power cord
That would be CH Acoustics :) 
Review: Resolution Audio Cantata Music Center CD Player
As long as I still have the passion when I listen to recorded music, it does not matter if I "miss" a few notes. 
Wadia S7i direct to amp
I just bought a Great Northern Sound Statement Wadia S71 today. I plan to do a impartial test of the S7i direct into my Burmester 911 MK3, with my Concert Fidelity CF 080 LS/X preamp. Either way, as I look at it, I come out a winner.:) 
Is sooloos worth the money?
I think Choihifi is speaking in salesman talk. There is no way, no how the Sooloos can be used for critical listening. No way. It is a excellent background music for when one is gardening. 
Most expensive Audio disapoinment?
BAT 52Se. Why? Put it in a system comprising of JM Labs/Focal Alto Be's and McIntosh MCD500. Adding the 52SE did absolutly nothing, nada, zilch to further the musical experience.
