Can Interconnects be converted to speaker cables
Yes it can be done, but is will sound terrible. Each strand or wire should match and that is not the way IC's are made.But in honesty the signal can be sent across most conductive material. You have only to lose and nothing to gain. 
Blu-ray vs HD digital?
In my experience with Directv and a Sony BD player I say the BDP is clearly superior to the Directv HD DVR. You may get different results with the Apple product I have no experience there. 
HELP: Noise from new Pro-Ject Debut III
Just a thought. If the cartridge it "too hot" it may be taking out the phono stage in the Yamaha. I seriously doubt that it is too hot though. Can you try a phono stage on a seperate input? Maybe Magnolia sells one I am sure they honor the traditi... 
Changing Fuses on McIntosh C500
I switched to a Furutech on my ARV LS26 and have been happy with the results. I won't say leaps and bounds but better control. I would imagine that you would notice improvements as well. It may depend on your power cord as to how much you notice. ... 
Anything better than 10 guage Romex?
AudioQuest makes a power cable available in bulk, but it would be spendy. Also Romex used to make a parrellel 14ga cable for such reasons, not sure if they still do. that would provide more skin surface than the 10ga. 
Question for ARC aficionados
I would think you would "gain" from the newer technology that ARC is incorporating. MHO of course. 
Getting FM broadcast on phono mode
Do you have satellite TV? I have Directv and had this issue a few years back. I added a filter to the phone line and that ended it. I can't remember where I got the filter it was online. Google Phone line filters the guy I spoke with knew exactly ... 
Audio Research Reference 3 vs Modwright LS 36.5?
What is your budget? If you wait the new ARC LS27 promises to out perform the REF3 at 8000.00 US 
MFSL Super Deep Cleaner or Enzyme?
I have been using the MFSL Enzyme with the Walker step 3 rinse on new vinyl and have been pleased with the results. I continue to use the Walker 4 step prelude on used vinyl. I doo use L'Art du son on some new as well, I really can't say which is ... 
Vandy quatro vs Vandy 5’s
For what it's worth I have heard both Quatros wood and original and the 5's. I can't say what version of the 5's but in my opinion, spend the extra 700. I think the 5's are better in every aspect. The only better is the new 7.And again my opinion,... 
what to do with my cat on my speaker grills
Place a large dog in front of the speaker. Cats hate woofers! 
Linn CD12 CD Player ...Opinions
I heard one years ago before I bought and Ikemi. I have since bought the Ayre C5xe-mp and it is way better than the Ikemi was. My guess is that the Ayre would sound as good if not better than the CD12. That is a really old technology by todays D/a... 
Cary SLP05 vs. Audio Research LS-26
That particular Cary appeals to me. I am also looking at McIntosh, another ARC, and a others. But I haven't heard the Cary and don't want to go thru considerable expense to try one out. I think there is some merit to a two box design. I think the ...
