Czarivey, you said, "So what's so different between Mogami, Demarzzio priced in average $50/m vs. let's say Harmonic Tech priced $5,000?5xparts+labor does seem to be far far away from $5,000. There's certainly +scam!" and now you say the second ch...

Audiolabyrinth, I merely count him as a poor used car salesman.You also see why I might ask that question. Some will be interested and some have nothing to do but suggest that they cannot hear well.

Czarivey, You have not been appointed to the scam police; kindly stop acting like you have been. Your logic is faulted by you guess that wire is wire, connectors are connectors, etc. Plus you include no possibility that one would sound better. Aga... 
How long before your cartridge warms up?
It all depends on whether you are talking about northern or southern and winter or summer. In Texas when it is near to 100ºs, the cartridge is ready to go. In the winter, with the coldest temperature set at 72ºs, it may take on cut.

Jazzonthehudson, You know the "five times parts and labor rule?" You are right that there are instances where manufacturers are making a fortune. I well remember when Bill Low brought out Big Red speaker wire. After that wire he made lots of money. 
A New Superstar Power Cord
It would be interesting to see what the dc signal coming out of all power supplies looks like. Frankly, I am shocked by the impact of power cords. When I still had an oscilloscope, I could see many deviations from a 60 sinusoidal wave.Now there is... 
A New Superstar Power Cord
Nglazer, no I have not. There must be 2000 different power cords out there. I doubt if anyone has heard 1% of them, but less doing a comparison of several. 
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
Agear, I have three dacs presently. One is the stock BMC PureDac, which I use with a music server source. It has a "analog" volume control, which of course, isn't really analogue, but it sounds very good through a line stage with the PureDac set a... 
A New Superstar Power Cord
Ptss, I would add many pcs to that list including the Crystal Absolute Dream, the Stage III Kraken, and the High Fidelity Ultimate Reference Rhodium, among others. A good buy for the money is a much more difficult assessment.

Bo1972, I must say that your quest is impressive, but I doubt if anyone has information about the right combinations to achieve the best sound. There are just too many combinations. No one has heard all the different cables that are available, nor...

Czarivey, I know of at least four very wealthy guys, all in the Northeast who have multiple very expensive turntables, amps, turntables and, yes, sets of cables. I know of one guy with eleven Stage III Krakens, I know of a guy with 90 plus StillPo... 
High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz
Ddraudt, if you have the HFC Magnetic Waveguide power filter and I think you do, put it there. After that I am at a loss to make a recommendation. You really should come over to hear this Avari preamp. 
Got an LP cleaner you want to make money on?
Were I to have a robot who would ask me each listening session "What LPs will you be listening to?" and then check them as to whether they need cleaning and, if so, do it, I would be one happy man. Presently as close as I can get is to use the Aud...

Mitch2, let me take another counter example to your car example. How much information do you have for buying one computer versus another? Yes you get amount of memory, processor speed, size, weight, etc. Do you seek interior pictures or timing of ...
