Thanks all.

Thanks, gs. Paralleling, meaning two wires, side by side, screwed into the hot of one breaker?  
Oh man, I broke my class D amp. Make fun of me. Then help.
Hey Todd, I just gotta tell you: I came to this thread simply for your humor. Love the OP title. And the rest didn't disappoint. Ha! Congrats on the miracle. 
Speaker Cable Suggestions
I simply wanted to echo the one previous poster about anticables.com. I have their Level 3 and am pleased as punch. I think it's unbelievable value for the dollar. (I'm on Thiel 3.6, Bryston 4B SST, and Tom Evans Vibe pre-amp, with OPPO media serv...

Thanks for that greeting, Jafant. I appreciate it. And, as you were the one to first launch me on this correct trajectory when I'd first begun, I am grateful. We all may find this funny, but I love this system so much that there are times that (ev... 
Newbie Q: speaker cable length? Different OK?
@adam18 Sorry for the late reply. I'm reviewing this old post, and realize I never answered. You'll find this interesting, I've also become a huge Paul Speltz fan. I love the setup I have now, and the speaker wires. But what is interesting is that...

I have a pair of 3.6s. And I want to say upfront, that I love my system. I was new to all of this, and the 3.6s were the first component purchase. And then the research soon took me to how important it was to power them correctly. So, initially I ... 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
Newbie question: If I were going to put only one power cord, where would it be? To amp, or preamp, or DAC? I would guess amp; and would imagine that each of them would benefit. I've just wondered this question, and thought this thread a great plac... 
Beware of PayPal fees
And credit cards (for the seller) carry approximately the same fees, as well as foreign transaction fees, if appropriate. I think it's a fair service for transacting cash transactions quickly. I think it's also fair for a foreign buyer to take the... 
Does the ceiling fan affect the sound?
If I understand the question correctly (and I'm a newbie, so you can take all this into consideration), but if you're asking if the fan breeze alters speaker output, if it were a solid breeze (at whatever normal speed), I don't think so, the "puls... 
DAC recommendation in the $1k range
I don't know if this remotely fits the bill, as I confess I'm new to audio. Plus, it's a bit over your $1k, but I love this unit: (And no, I don't work for Crutchfield, nor did I buy my unit from them; but I think they have a great writeup.)http:/... 
Newbie Q: speaker cable length? Different OK?
Adam, I did check out the website, then called. And you're right, he's a great guy. Talked at incredible length, and he seemed to be in no rush to jet me off the line. I ordered speaker wire today, Level3. Ironically enough,  went with two times e... 
Blown speaker, stupid move?
I had remembered seeing that, and it struck me funny on your post. Then I saw the memorex version appear here. Indeed. 
Newbie Q: AppleTV to analog only preamp
Great answers, all. Thanks much. Received a real education and clarity. Based on this, I'm looking at this device. For sure, this is a future upgrade; but at least I have a clear upgrade path for when that time comes. Old $90 Blu-ray would have ev...
