Phil, that offer of yours is very cool, indeed. I wish I could be there to hear and see the reactions. Can't wait to hear everyone's impressions about this experience. Please keep us all posted. You're a power....peace, warren :) 
The Law of Diminishing Digital Returns
These percentages we come up with are ridiculous!! 5% better? Better than what? Take TVAD's cdp. He has a killer player. I had an Audio Aero Prima. Yes that was a killer player, to me. Now, TVAD's player costs more than twice mine. Does it sound t... 
Break in for ICs from CDP
Used Cable said that if you leave the amp off it is only breaking them in one way? anybody on this? Grant I'm sorry for ignoring you. Perhaps it was thoughtless, looking back, but I just (I didn't want my thread to get off track, either) had to wa...

I have never heard the Druids, but have only heard amazing things. I do own the Zu's Definition 1.5 which are the Druid's big brother. Similar in many ways, I'm told. The Durid's incredible efficiency of 101db will allow you to consider SET, which... 
The Law of Diminishing Digital Returns
How we come up with these percentages (5% better) I don't know. I am guilty of the same rap. That being said, when I'm listening for an extended time: 5% is a big deal. You said you don't want to go mod, but let me just say, that it is a very good...

Break in for ICs from CDP
I can remove my KR KT88s and put in something way way less expensive, but why would some say that the integrated does not have to be on? So far this seems to be a coin toss? Also, does keep the volume down all the way keep the tubes just toasty? I...

Wow, $150?! I'll use some busy music. I have never heard of this baby. 250 hours on a laser ain't nut'n...

Missed you by two hours. Joe, it will happen for you. There's got to be someone in the Big Apple with these babies or close to Philly....

One interesting dude, however. Man, would I have loved to hear the tape that he gave to his Ex. The one he told her to destroy.... 
Good power cord vs Killer power cord?
From past experiences with the AM line, break in is very very long. This time AM is doing the full break in for me. I would try to speed things up using a space heater. High current, high amperage pull. A few hundred hours gets the job done, well....
