Speakers for Electronic Music?
A pair of pro PA speakers like used passive Mackies, a powered pro Mackie 18" sub, and a QSC power amp...for 2 grand easily (used in good shape). You can dance all night. 
Difference in quality in products made in China?
I re-rest my case.

Goofyfoot...I've re-opened the case at least as it pertains to you. As you seem comfortable with an astonishing level of cluelessness and misinformation regarding topics ranging from hand safety (!) to Asian education possibilities (Lau vs. Nichol... 
Reterminate Syn. Research cable, shocking find
All my solid core AQ cables, including balanced, RCA, and speaker are built like tanks and sound fabulous...and they make some very high quality spades and bananas that are very easy to use.

Goofyfoot...I've been a professional musician and a professional goofyfoot (competitive pro longboard surfer) likely longer than you've been alive, and I strongly suggest you get out in the world a little more to learn what racist nonesense is all... 
Difference in quality in products made in China?
The weirdly racist and unsubstantiated claim that Asians have more "nimble fingers" is utter nonesense. There are simply a LOT of Asians to pick from and therefore a lot of Asians around everywhere (especially in Asia!)...I grew up in Honolulu whi... 
Band's you have seen on their first U.S. tour
Hendrix in '67 in Santa Barbara, Zep in '69 (my little band opened for them and technically it was the second part of their first tour) in Honolulu, Tull in '69...note that Tull and Zep made pretty much every other band (except Hendrix of course) ... 
Kevin gets the
He has yet to address the rumors that he's an arsonist who hates the little children and leaves the seat up. He does owe a large "Thank You" to the 'Gone community for another avalanche of free publicity...you're welcome. 
Signal Cable REL cable vs Speakon Custom REL cable
Since the original post included an "or", I think at least that part of the "original question" was covered. Again...you can avoid silly REL cable mythology and expense by easily building your own (multiples even) with whatever you like and compar...

Kevin was nice on the phone when I called for tube info once...and I don't criticize his good fortune in "review land" or Primaluna gear in general...it is merely worth being Ever Vigilant and an both an opportunity for smarmy self righteousness a... 
Kevin gets the
I saw both of those reviews and sort of thought the same thing, and Tellig even said he gets all his tubes from Deal. I say buy a Jolida and save a couple grand (!). Disclaimer: I like Jolida, own a 502P, and have talked to everybody at Jolida MD ... 
Best value in speaker cables??
Used solid core AQs of the "PFC Copper" level are a bargain in the used market. Cables are interesting in that I think people (including me) love what they hear at a certain price point (it's tough to audition cables in any meaningful way) and fee... 
Which adcom sounds best?
Or the one that's stuffed into any insulting poster's pie hole. 
Upgrading from AT95e cart.....
Not sure if this cart is brighter per se, but I was turned on to a Sumiko Pearl when I wasn't happy with an AT440...and that Pearl just sings...at $125 I feel it's underpriced somewhat as sounds great...extremely balanced and accurate in my modest...
