Apr 06, 2004	Dedicated Line, Surge and Safety Thanks, Rex!
Apr 05, 2004	Can sibilance be eliminated? Marakanetz says it all. Until excess sibilance is eliminated at the source it will continue to plague the musical reproduction chain.
Apr 05, 2004	Dedicated Line, Surge and Safety How are you gonna handle the ground with 2 conductor wire?
Apr 02, 2004	Andra II vs. WattPup 7 vs Legacy Focus 20/20 If you want music and not audiophile BS, then I would put the Legacy Focus 20/20 high on your list!
Apr 02, 2004	Power Conditioner Helpful? I would either get a Shunyata Hydra 8 power conditioner or a PS Audio Power Plant which is actually a power regenerator. The rest of the units out there to me are not worth their price.
Apr 01, 2004	Speaker opinions for my setup, pls? Why don't you wait until you move into your new house in June before plunking down the green for new speakers?
Apr 01, 2004	Best speaker cable in the $2,500 range I would put the Analysis Plus Solo Crystal Oval 8 up against any on your list above. And these are subtantially less than your $2500 limit!
Mar 30, 2004	What does MKII stand for? MKII stands for Mark II which is a second iteration of the same product marked by changes usually for the better, but not always.
Mar 29, 2004	Is Sennheiser 600/650 an overkill ? Hepl makes sense. However, if money is not object then look at the headphone amps for sale and combine one with a Senn 600 or 650 for ultimate resolution.
Mar 29, 2004	Looking for excellent DAC without a preamp section Add to your list the Muse Model 192 DAC (a 24/192 DAC). Only about $4000 or so new.
Mar 26, 2004	What are your most favorite Audio-related web page Look in the archives. I think this one has been done in the recent past.
Mar 26, 2004	Last Speakers Aerial 20T or Vandersteen 5A Dude, listen to both of these loudspeakers in your own system, then YOU decide which is better!
Mar 26, 2004	Great country music recording All great music listings. Kim Richey is another decent country artist.
Mar 26, 2004	Adcom GFA-5802 -vs- Parasound HCA-3500 Amps? I've heard both. No question. Parasound HCA-3500.
Mar 26, 2004	Anyone heard the new Theta Gen VIII ? Meitner and dCS are both top choices. I would add to the list Muse Model Ten transport and Model 192 DAC with DB25 connection. Substantially less money than either Meitner or dCS and will hold their own against them both!
