nonoise - superb incremental review(s). Now I want a set. Thanks for sharing. And your use of incertitude as well  ;)  
Wells Audio / AVA Synergy / PrimaLuna DiaLouge Premium HP
I've owned Salk HT3, van Alstine big FET hybrid power amp (I think the prior version of your url) and a PL Dialogue One. I visited Frank van Alstine's house a few times to buy my stuff directly from him. He uses the HT3 himself. And he and Salk al... 
9 year old Parasound Jc 1s or new Bel Canto 1000m monos?
Hey bubba, just saw this. The Tritons can handle power big & small. Big better if you have to choose. I had my Sony amp on them, also a Cronus Magnum, and I think a PrimaLuna way back. Possibly a NAD D 3020 for kicks too. I don't recall they'r... 
Any recommendations on a good service shop?
Might be called DLJ Audio. Downtown Greensboro. 
Servers: Are we there yet?
Fellow Sony HAP server owners sit back and chuckle at these frustration threads whilst our state of the art player and app sing and dance for us in rock steady glee.

How can it be that some old recordings sound sublime?
The liner notes to the box set 'Sunday at Village Vanguard' where your set comes from (or maybe you mean "Waltz for Debby") goes into detail how the trio was recorded that day. The kicker is that it was done by a total amateur student. He knew not... 
I am really disappointed with the hip-hop enthusiasts on Audiogon
There’s a hip hop cd from the 90s that I play for my wonder bread pleated pants pals just to blow their mind. Guru - Jazzmatazz, Vol 1. Seriously, it’s head shaking good. Apparently it was the first to merge jazz with hh. I have yet to find anyone... 
where can I buy a 1/4 amp slow blow fuse?
I pm you.  
Why are people always getting into pissing matches because they think what they have is better
Had to look up the Dunning-Kruger Effect and glad I did. Great stuff there. Sweet quote: The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled people make poor decisions and reach erroneous conclusions, but their incompetence denies t... 
Olive Media 06HD Trouble Shooting
Exactly what I did. And every single day I'm grateful. The HAP is so incredibly good, both in sound and ergonomics. Ignore the Luddite chuckleheads here who have transfer problems, etc. I can help you via pm anytime. Hint: only transfer 99 folders... 
Does it ever bother you
Yes agree with taters.Whenever I suffer through a long tech deep dive I ponder my theory: they've never heard Fela Kuti.  
Is the word 'Integrated' that hard to spell?
wlutke - agree. I won't buy from a garbled ad. I always ask them to call me as well so I know they're serious, responsive, etc. smrex13 - yes thought about that as well, the ESL aspect. Fair point. Your example, however, is for verbal, not written... 
On the draining of resonance.....
Recently Art Dudley, a few issues back in a post I think called '3 rules' discussed resonance. He basically said draining efforts via spikes etc just makes the speaker front vibrate more. He said no spikes and use felt pads on everything. Check it... 
Is the word 'Integrated' that hard to spell?
Haha the first salvo!  :)
