XLR/RCA
I would suggest RCA cabling (for resle) with a good adapter. I have a pair of BAT adapters with male XLR prongs on the adaptor and a female RCA. This would go into your Levinson out. I bought these and found I needed female on the adapter, not mal... 
Dedicated outlet..suggestions..
One more thing, I purchased from Brian at Hello Simply Music and found his prices better than any other and his service the best at Audiogon.

Patricia Barber "Verse" released and online
I have now listened to this disk most every day for a couple weeks. I must say it grows on me, a lot of subtle musical treats to discover. I continue to enjoy her journey through her musical growth and still believe she is one of the very leading ...

Tweaks & How My System Disappeared
Tom, it's nice to hear your experiences are similiar to mine, kind of helps me believe I found a good solution. I like the efforts with Symposium/Aurio, I might have to get some Symposium to give it a try. 
Cooling Help in a Closet Equipment Room
If you have forced air, I've designed a number of home theater rooms that I put a return air louver in the equipment closet. This would require a louvered door. Swampwalker has a good idea if you have hot water or steam heat.

New Eva Cassidy - "Imagine"
I bought "Imagine" and found the studio ambiance is wonderful. Her voice is clear and effortless and her guitar is very good. What is missing for me is her emotion that is so strong on her earlier recordings. At times the raw, not perfect nature o... 
Is it worth it to buy the Cable Cooker?
Well Sean, I can not imagine what it is that got to Paul. You are maybe the most honest and knowledgeable guy I know. You have done a lot of DIY projects and have shared more knowledge than I'll ever have. I do know you to have opinions, but I'm a...
