Some thoughts on ASR and the reviews
While I think measurements are important it's hard to respect ASR! I stopped visiting their site years ago!   
If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments?
@jperry Look at this as an opportunity to educate people and don't assume everyone is a longtime seasoned audiophile. If the person is just trolling and has a history of that in these forums that's a different story!  
Axpona 2024 who is going and why?
@noromance The last two years I stayed at the Hyatt Regency. This year for some reason they wouldn't accept Hyatt points for their rooms, so I decided to stay at the Hyatt Place that is only about a block away from the Regency. I book these reserv... 
Axpona 2024 who is going and why?
I'm flying in tomorrow. Just got back from Hawaii last night so I have a fast turn-around. This will be my 3rd year straight at attending this show. I'm on a hunt for new speakers and possibly a tube preamp. Some rooms I'm interested in attending ... 
The Music Room
I've bought NEW from TMR and they are a good company especially if you are in the market for used gear. I have some gear to sell but with them charging a 35% consignment fee there is no way I will sell that low. To each his own, I guess.  
The Music Room
I like TMR and have purchased new gear from them but the prices they give you for your gear seem really low. I will sell privately first, and they would be a last resort for me.

The Psychology of Constant (Equipment) Change
I know people who change out equipment more than I change my socks! I can't even imagine the losses they have in reselling this equipment. If I was only wealthy!  
Shunyata Denali 6000/S v2 and Typhon T2 Review
@tomcy6 Agreed it's problematic. I never said it would be easy. The smaller reviewers most likely have no test equipment to do the comparisons or resources to get all of the power conditioners and the big-name reviewers will never do it. I guess i... 
Puritan PSM156
I also recently purchased the PSM156. I also have my high current power amp plugged into it and don't notice it restricting dynamics at all. Very happy with this purchase. The only negatives I have found was the 20 Amp power socket (Can't use my o... 
Shunyata Denali 6000/S v2 and Typhon T2 Review
I would LOVE to see some actual technical measurements done on these power conditioners with test equipment and measurements made to indicate noise and EMI removed and a comparison done to several other brands and models. I'm sure people believe t... 
You tube hifi influencers. Love them or hate them?
The problem I have with Steve Guttenberg is he has said he will never give a bad review. I do have some problems with that. Also, many reviewers (Possibly Steve) are pay to play reviewers and I definitely have a problem with that. Some reviewers c... 
Zavfino and Neotech OCC Interconnect
I own several sets of Zavfino Fusion (XLR) cables and they are excellent especially for the money!  
Steve Guttenberg reviews an ATC active?
I've always loved ATC speakers but my God the price on their speakers is just over the top!   
OCD mickey website and negativity.
@yyzsantabarbara No problem! I bought my Puritan PSM156 with it. Good deal.
