Killer female vocal recordings-show me the light..
Hey Warren,Do you have the XRCD by Ella and Oscar Peterson? I heard it once at an Audio Store and I am in search of this disc as well. 
Stands or feet for Thiel 3.6
I have tried the 1.2APs, also on Berber carpets/2nd story wood floors. Yes, they are more stable than the factory spikes. But, I perfer the spikes over the APs. BTW, using the brass APs are not as simple as slipping the points in the factory holes...

For String fans, Turtle Island String Quartet does a great Sidewinder. BTW, also a big LM fan! 
Was it worth the effort ? Advice needed...........
If you need to drill and retap the threads, the rule of thumb is to use a drill two sizes smaller. Good luck. 
Power Conditioners vs. Power Cables
I use an upgraded outlet, power conditioner, enhancer, and power cord. Some, even upgrade the outlets in the power conditioner and Cryo treat their power cords. Satisfaction is personal, where you want to stop is up to you. Not all and any outlet ... 
Albertporter only needs 50
Okay Max, I heard your request for more of us to participate in our findings of the Porter Ports. I hope I am not premature, but nevertheless they're great. I am comparing these with outlets from Tice Audio, which have been in my system for the la... 
XRCD: to be or not to be...
Thanks TGuy for the info. I will seek out other titles on XR2, I do have a dozen or so XRCDs, love them. But nevertheless, the $40 dollar ones are expensive. The $40 dollar disc I have is one by Nat King Cole, Stardust is to die for. 
XRCD: to be or not to be...
XRCD - $25 are great, XRCD2 - $40 a disc is a rip! I only have one XR2 disc and really can't say how much better it is than the original XR format. My point is, why do I only have one disc? How many can you buy at $40 a pop.

Max, Thanks for your updates. My guess, is that many of us who bought these outlets have not installed them yet. I am currently using a Tice outlet, and will A/B it with the Cryo treated ones soon. I finally installed them in a wall next to my rep... 
Need immediate help
As with every component,a certain amount of tweaking is necessary to fine tune a unit to be synergistically correct with the rest of the system. With the X-1 in my system, I found it sounded better stacked than separated. I understand using XLR ca... 
Muddy Waters "Folk Singer"
I hope the copy you picked up of MW's Folk Singer was the Original Master Recording, UltradiscII Gold CD,(big difference!!) Another intimate Blues recording is Lightnin' Hopkins's Lightnin' CD or LP both great! 
Ever Have One Of Those Evenings?
Well, Zaikes of course we all feel for you. My preamp went back to ARC two times this year. I have a pair of 3.6s and thought these things are built to last. What's happening with the voice-coils assy. that you need to replace them again.Anyway, w...

Review: Blue Circle Audio Music Pumps Amplifier
I congratulate you on your "openness" to these things. I believe they may produce some decent sounds. But for me, it would be played in the dark. Although I may be interested in a pair of size 10 1/2 Vasque moutainerring boots. 
The "coolest" looking system?
