Cable Elevators killed my bass
Tholt, I have always found wood robs the music of its pace and thrill. I would include bass in that. Try cd boxes, but if you really want the best go to china cups. I use special ceramic feet that look like electrical isolators but they are no lon... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Glory, by the "stock" wires, I assume you mean the Basiks that come with them. Yes, I have used them as well as Precision Reference between my line stage and amp, Apex between both my preamp and the phono stage, Oppo player, and Weiss dacs. I have... 
Cable Elevators killed my bass
Kbarkamian, so why do you read it and post? These ideas yield subtle effects, but positive effects nevertheless. I have never found anything other than ceramics that work, but that is for everyone to judge for themselves.

Calloway, well they must be extraordinary. I think that I would look into the Ypsilon Aelius monoblocks before I bought the Chalice monoblocks. The Aeliuss are "only" $34k. 
Acoustic Revive RR-77 Ultra low pulse generator
Davidpritchard, how do you position it at that height? I assume you found the King Rex a big addition? 
The best speaker you ever heard?

In my experience 5 feet is the minimum, but I had little benefit above that.Under no circumstance, if your experience is like mine, put an Acoustic Revive QR-8 on the bottom or anywhere on the RR-77. This was recommended by one reviewer. It just k... 
How Many Turntables Have You Owned
Andromedaaudio, I have never seen or heard one, but the Orient sure raves about them. I have been looking for a Seiko/Epson tt for years. I have heard one of these.

What is the Diffrence in these AC Receptacels
If you really want to be anal, buy a big outlet box and install multiple outlets. Then you can quickly try each. Have I done this? Of course not!I have installed seven different outlets on my two dedicated circuits. You can do it yourself. Be cert... 
New amp being touted as among the best ever......
Ben_campbell, it sure has had no visibility in the US. Maybe it will be at CES or THE Show.Casouza, I noticed that also and think there is some reason, it has so little visibility in the US. I have heard some rumbling that when compared with other...

Argyro, I wish I had been there. I have been eying the Sovereign Glory. 
The best speaker you ever heard?
I agree about the Contriva DiaCera SEs. When I first heard them, I knew this was the exception to my conclusion that all speakers were compromises somewhere.

Calloway, since I am using a Sander Audio Magtech stereo amp that puts out 900 watts into 4 ohms and can say the Contrivas can also take much power.

Dre_j, I do not mean to imply that Jeff broke the Thale, but he told me it arrived broken. He did say that he had endeavored to get it working, but that it was not working properly.
