What are you 'TRULY' Looking for in Loudspeaker...
For me listening to music has always been a very visceral experience. I don't get too caught up in specs or logic or scientific explanation for what I perceive I am hearing. That being said I want speakers to evoke emotion. For me that emotion com...

Focal Maestro Utopia , need advice for AMP/PRE
Your Pass amps have plenty of power and should be a wonderful match for your speakers. I have always liked the liquid sound of Pass amps (I used to own the XA160). Before buying anything make sure you listen and live with the Pass gear for a while... 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
Because that one is also a Japanese spec one. 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
Nickolaspappas, I got in touch with Joseph Chow and he seems to think it will be an easy mod to make the Japanese spec DA-06 work on 110V. So for around $1000 you can do the mod and upgrade some internals to theoretically have a better sounding DA... 
Modding Synergistic Research MPC to Galileo status
Eldulcesol, curious if you heard any improvement after the mod? 
Luxman DA-06 Dac...anyone?
Audioman58, very interesting indeed. I think it would be great to get the Luxman and not only get it corrected for the voltage I need but also modded to improve the sound. I am going to look into Joseph Chow and contact him to discuss. 
best speakers for vocals?
Hey great to see this topic pop back up! Yogiboy, I am indeed back in the market for speakers. Admittingly I am a Sonus Faber fanboy, having lived with the Cremona Auditors for a while. I still very much love these speakers but I will be moving th...

Going old school with The Style Council, "Confessions of a Pop Group". 
Stillpoint Ultra Minis
I did try the Ultras under my monitor speakers but did not hear substantial improvement. I think I heard a bit more clarity. Perhaps this has to do with monitors versus heavier floor standing speakers? I think I read somewhere that the lighter wei... 
Stillpoint Ultra Minis
I have your same experience using these under my PS Audio P3. I tried the Ultras as well but did not hear any difference from the Minis. I also tried both the Ultras and Minis under my CDP/DAC and integrated but did not hear as much improvement. I...

Lone Justice! Maria McKee!! I still have their cassette tapes. I'm going to soothe you baby! I am playing Lone Justice "Radio 1 Live in Concert". 
DIY AC cable...which bulk cable?
Joe, I also have the R1 outlet though in my case I wil be plugging this cord into my PS Audio P3 ac regenerator. Rja, would you suggest going the unshielded route for my linear power supply? I have heard that amps need unshielded power cords thoug... 
DIY AC cable...which bulk cable?
Thank you Williewonka. This is precisely why I want to make an AC cable versus buy some high priced one. I also have some nice Oyaide P4/C4 connectors I purchased years ago that I never used so I figure I would spend a few bucks and make a cable. ...
