Line Conditioner or New Power Cords?
This is a which comes first thing with some audiophools: the chicken or the egg. There are NO power cords out there that can do what an excellent power conditioner can do. I'd start (it is the way I did mine)with the best power conditioner I feel ... 
Is There any Truly "High End" Integrated Amp?
There's a YBA Passion Integre for sale on the 'gon as we speak. Very good price. I'd grab it if I were you. I preferred it over the ML, Concentra II and MF. A very sweet 100 high current watts. Interior design is amazing. You know, when you buy us... 
Any comments on Harmonix HS 101 spker cables?
I have the Studio Masters and their High Performance ICs, and can only imagine the same with their cables: Incredible. Though too costly for me..You are talking about their top of the line cables that is? I think they only have one kind, as of my ... 
Subwoofers that do both L/R & LFE simultaneously?
I'm not really sure about your question, but in subwooferdom two is better than one. Never heard negative experiences with two rather than one sub. This guarantees you a balanced stereo bass. I used one sub for years 'til I switched to two, from A... 
Dedicated power,long power cords - waste of time?

Tube virgin no more
We're lucky audiophools. Look how much money he has saved us. BTW, are you going to be using tubes, as well? 
Tube virgin no more
Great I'm going to cancel my speaker order right away. Thanks for the tip. BTW, I was asking 'bout tubes wasn't I? 
Tube virgin no more

Tube virgin no more
Well, yes, technically I am still a tube virgin. As soon as my wife (she's looking at paint chips. Glory be, this is the greatest thing that has ever happened in the way of WAF/speakers) decides on the color, I am going ahead ordering a pair of De...
