For a front man, kemper seems to be standing waaaaay at the back. 
Linn Audio
I never liked Linn's tactics with regards to how they used to treat the dealers. The dealers had to sell certain gear that would not compete with the Linn gear. I know this because I was friends with a dealer in London back in the early 90's. You'... 
Solidsteel Racks
I have 2 solid steel 5 racks. Must be 10yrs old now. Filled the legs/shelf supports with sand. One of them supports my turntable which sits on 80lbs of layered granite. I think they are excellent stands although as said shelves could be improved.

FYI, for those with continued interest, there is a thread in the Misc Audio forums regarding Core Power Technologies that Dan Wright has responded to.

Will SME-V, etc benefit with non-stock alignment?
Yes, I think I bought this back in 1996. I've had the same arm and cartridge since then. Prior to that I had a Lyra Lydian.

cross wire, i'm referring to my measurement of 8mm.

SME V tonearm - abnormalities in alignment ?

Will SME-V, etc benefit with non-stock alignment?
In my case, my Lyra Clavis DC measured 8mm. Quite a difference to that stated by SME. Purchased a MintLP and have been very pleased with the improvement. 
What PC for PPP?
power cables, in fact all cables are a personal choice issue which is why manufacturers supply a generic lead. Plus it would drive the price of the component up. My pet hate is fuses. Why not fit the components with the good fuses to begin with bu... 
Would you pay to audition speakers
If he had every speaker you could buy then it might seem less insane but I can't help thinking 'What if you don't like any of the speakers he sells?' Would you lose your $500. Let's say you really liked a Thiel speaker another dealer has and he ha... 
What PC for PPP?
Lessloss didn't work as well on my PPP.I would look into the new perfectwave cables from PS Audio, they look quite promising. I am currently using a Statement SC which works very well. 
PS Audio Equipment???
My PPP died this week. It shows no sign of life. It's a year old. I called PS Audio and they sent me a box to return it in because I had got rid of mine (new house, no room). Hopefully it will come back as good as new because I really miss it.
