Help M'aidez
My advice is to find the finest brothel in town and listen to the magical sound of well..........uh, you know ;) 
Plinius 250/Pass x-350/Gamut D200/Other ?
I was considering all the amps you mentioned(among many others- cello duet, rowland 8Ti, accuphase P series, Parasound JC-1, Clayton Audio S2000) and in the end I ended up with a BAT VK-500, it seemed to mate up the best with my speakers(maggies)-... 
No more music CDs without copy protection
Zaiksman- It will mean that artists will need to put on damn good live performances to make a living similar to their predecessor's :-) 
I'm taking votes
Linn CD12, the Wilson Benesch speakers are good but the CD12 is fantastic- IMO 
No more music CDs without copy protection
I concur with some of the above statements, I am not interested in burned(copyed) discs. How ever I am very concerned about paying a premium for a new cd with less then the best possible sound reproduction, simply because most of society has no sc... 
Have you had buyers/sellers back out of a deal?

Wow I am sold
I concur- when I got my maggies I wasn't aware of the potential they had, now I would be hard pressed to find something I would want to purchase under 25k retail(yes I am serious) these things do so much so well I am happy with my system and liste... 
Have you had buyers/sellers back out of a deal?

I'm Getting Unbalanced About Balanced
If you are unsure if a component is truly balanced or not go to the source, ask the manufacturer if it is balanced or merely accepts XLR inputs. Either way it will make a difference with different cables be it single ended(rca) or balanced- best t... 
Used Pass 600monos or Rowland 8TiHC?
Ulf- I don't currently have any rowland amps nor do I plan to have one in the near future- and I am sure they are great amps(I had a model 5), they just aren't the sound that some-like myself- care for. I was not claiming that they don't have dyna...

Gee I didn't realize there was this many upstate'rs at audiogon(hudson river valley that is). Matty that is weird I am in Schodack(which is RIGHT next to EG), I live between 150 and Rt. 9. Audio Oasis is in The Peter Harris plaza in latham on Troy... 
audio stores in Albany, NY
Lwatson- How's it going neighbor! There are a couple of shops up here but nothing truly high-end. Depends what you are looking for- I am surprised we haven't run into each other on these forums before, as I am sure you are aware there aren't many ... 
Upgraded AC outlets
I like my Jena labs outlets, but that's my opinion- try a search on this subject or better yet get in on the Albertporter group buy on cryo treated hubbels(which is essentially what a Jena outlet is).
