Breaking in power cords
Sean, I use and love the results with the Ayre disc. I only play track 7. do you play the other tracks? Results if any? Also, can you explain exactly what track 7 is doing and how? In laymans terms, if you can. Thanks again, warren

Sean, it's obviously me, but playing a cd player non stop for a few days is ok? I use my Ayre Acoustic track 7, once a week. A few days 24/7?Also, I heard the same about how some ICs can respond poorly to cooking. They can be overcooked, as well. ...

Ben Webster does, indeed, get a sweet sound out of a sax like no one else. Makes that sax cry like a baby....

Need clean Power.
I think that $175 for one outlet is kinda high, but acceptable if he's putting in only one outlet. If he's doing two, the charge of $175 per is ridiculous. I use cryoed Hubbels in my dedicated outlets. Use one outlet for source, only. This is just... 
Imaging/Soundstaging - Does room size matter?
Height? I ain't gonna argue wit cha...so you hear your cymbals, violins, brushes on cymbals, etc., on the ceiling? Since those tweeter of yours are 360 degrees: ya hear the same coming from the floor? beats me... 
Imaging/Soundstaging - Does room size matter?
good post Rolf. My wife factor and the general layout of my room negates acoustic tweaks on the walls. My soundstage, however, is still, quite amazing. Has more to do with the speaker positioning and system, itself. I wonderwhat it would be like i...

Loreena McKinnet Remasters
you seem to know what you know. trust your tympanics. Are any audiophools going to make Loreena sound better on your system? If I tell you how wonderful uni tastes, will that change your impressions of it? Sounds like you like the first one better...
