Comparing Amp Stands and Racks from Adona, EdenSound, and Symposium
Hi Mike: Nice to see you chiming in. I use an Adona rack (which I especially like because it's completely adjustable) and looks cool. I used their shelves for years, but have upgraded them to Marigo Audio composite shelves that can be custom made ...

POWER TUBES and Musical genre
"IMHO all 88's sound exactly the same"I have to disagree with that statement. I my amps (MFA M75 monoblocs) and in my listening room I've had the SED Winged C and the Genelex Gold Lions installed, and they clearly have a different presentation. 
High End Audio PC-Stil in Buisness?
I'm still waiting for my order. It seems that it's been  stuck in Jersey City, NJ since May 7, 2020. I know the COVID situation has really turned things upside down, however, that doesn't excuse not returning emails.
