Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Sherod, their revised webpage was supposed to be up and running by now, but is not.The MIGs look just like the cups in the ARTs and of the same iron, but I was told they are not identical to the ART cups.They are definitely effective although I ca... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
If I recall correctly, at CES they used two in the front and one in back and the only one had the round end up. What really amazed me was that the components were already on a StillPoints rack and still the Migs made a big difference. 
Which is the best cd player under $10k?
It is true! 
Which is the best cd player under $10k?
Schipo, yes, these questions never reach any consensus and cannot be used by anybody. What is curious is that anyone answers them. All that they turn out to be is the "mine is bigger than your" male contests. 
As system improves, do bad recordings sound worse?
Truly bad pop recordings of the late 1990s are digital horrors, many other recordings overused analog "improvements" such as reverb and sound phony, and early classical recordings lack the dynamics of real music. I think your question depends larg... 
Stillpoints
Apopira2, I have no recent experience with the individual StillPoints, but I am shocked with the impact of a StillPoints component stand under my amp. I am also going to use such component stands under my new speakers.

I strongly suspect that the Exemplar mode Oppo 83 will outperform those you name for $2500. 
Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
Kijanki, no it is illogical. Everything has a resonant frequency below which all hell breaks lose. 
Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
Kijanki, if the component resonates on soft feet, you have the component and its wires moving in the very magnetic field that their circuit produces with some delay. This is why isolation can so improve a component. Nothing stupid about this. 
Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
TVAD, I have only seen one in Nashville. I was heavily treated with real monitor speakers and extended bass and good balanced cabling.In fact, there is still a good deal of studio recording happening in Hollywood, although there are many home stud... 
Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
Kijanki, no I am talking about the magnetic field caused by the signal current flow within the component.Tvad, now many professional recording studios have you seen. When you were in them did you see many highend power cords? I see that is one of ... 
Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
Kijanki, well, I firmly believe in trusting ones ears. I have heard too many instances where implausible things are audible. In the case of an amplifier moving a wire within a magnetic field clearly can induce a signal that isn't the music. I woul... 
Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
Kijanki, I have to retain a Blu-ray player as I have 400 sacds and want a quality blu-ray player, but I agree with you on convenience and greater accuracy of reading from memory rather than optical devices.I must say that I got a Mac with SSD on t... 
Can Mac/PC compete with High End CDT??
Thuchan, my experience is comparing music from the SSD in my Mac Powerbook Pro versus from my Western Digital HD connected to my Powerbook. The same Minerva was used for both. I have heard that single cell SSDs sound better than multiple SSDs find... 
Best speakers for 15X14 ft room
Prp2k, I have a 10 x13 foot room in the Summer. I have a pair of LSA1 Statements that I am going to use there. I have heard them in a small room and was shocked with their sound. I would really suggest that you also look into these relatively inex...
