Can anyone recommend an FM Receiver that would play into a relatively high end system?
Well I would certainly consider a Mcintosh MAC7200 as a high end receiver. I thought there were some other pretty decent integrated amps that had FM card options too. I listen to internet radio a lot and have thought about getting a tuner for pote... 
Beyond Boutique Speakers
I started that other boutique thread and was very impressed with the number of small shops producing quality speakers. It must take an enormous amount of passion and dedication to do that. We benefit from the choices and quality so I love the idea...

@jayctoy, I had a tube setup for a while but I run my stereo almost around the clock since I've been working home with the pandemic. I switched to a Mcintosh MHA100 that I bought NOS from Audio Classics and it mates very nicely with the 95db Omega...

jayctoy: The 3i HO is the same cabinet as my "Modern Cams". You may want to consider the Alnico driver....just a thought. That RS5 driver is absolutely stunning with excellent source material but I found it could be harsh with lesser recordings. I...

roxy54: Yeah I've actually been to their site looking for dealers, but nobody in the US seems to sell them anymore. Upscale stopped carrying them quite a while ago and the last internet search only brought up like one Canadian shop. Very strange f...

hilde45: Wow I'm really surprised to hear that. I can't say that I blame you at all. I'm local to him and he had a pair of floor standers using his smaller non alnico drivers that he let me play around with. These weren't my cup of tea at all but ...

Ha....I was just writing this in your other post: In all fairness to Omega, I'm pretty sure Louis would take care of you if you weren't happy. Fritz's policy does sound very generous, I'd assume that not too many people have to take him up on the ...

What do you think of this power cord?
I tried one of their "Ref" power cords. Overall quality looked good, the male end that plugs into outlet was nice and tight but the equipment side was not tight at all. It sagged and felt like it could almost just fall off the amp. It did sound ni... 
Cable comparison charts?
mammothguy54,Thank you sir, I appreciate that. And if I may....for cables that you are very interested in but can't find an avenue for home demo, try the used markets. You can find just about anything you may be interested in relatively cheap and ... 
Cable comparison charts?
@daleberlin I wish you luck in your pursuit of the perfect cables for your system. I don't think your post was stupid or uninformed, there's a staggering number of options available and it can be daunting. Most will agree that specs don't begin to...
