JADE AUDIO Cables
The cables I used were Purist Aqueous Anniversary and Venustas, Jena Labs Symphony and the top Sonoran cables. I've used numerous other cables but these were well above anything near their price. That is until I got the Jade cables.I plan to go in... 
JADE AUDIO Cables
Mattheus, I think you will be very happy with your purchase. I have replaced my cables with the Jade Audio cables, both gold and vermeil. I will be posting my findings in more detail once I get a chance to write the review I feel this product dese... 
Who Do You Credit For Getting You Into This Hobby?
I would credit the late Michael Oddie, owner of Alternative Audio. His store (Village Audio at the time) was on my way to university. I walked by nearly every day and one day decided to see what was in the store. Michael always remembered me whene... 
Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen
It's funny how I read your post and came to the same conclusion as Albert before I finished reading your question. I think your money is best spent on speakers. Having heard the Vandy's last week, I am confident in mine and Albert's suggestions. 
I want to talk to Wyetech Topaz's owners
If you have read the Soundstage review of the topaz, you'll find that Mickelson reviewed them on a pair of WP7's and found they had plenty of power. In comparison to the Lamm ML2:" The amps' power output seems about equal, with perhaps the Wyetech... 
I want to talk to Wyetech Topaz's owners
I own the amp that Sutts foolishly sold. I also have the same TT as you have. I have been able to compare the Topaz with several amps over the last year on Coincident Total Victiries. What do you want to know? 
antique sound 1009
Tab, the later version of these amps have the caps that are recommended. One could install expensive V-caps and get most of the benefit of the 1800 mod for $400 in parts. WRT the biasing issue, mine stayed steady the whole time I had them. I check... 
antique sound 1009
There appear to be some uninformed answers above. I owned the 1009's for a while and they were quite impressive in my system. They are not knockoffs of anything. While the some of the amps listed above may have better fit and finish and a fancier ... 
Tips to install cartridge
Try hooking up the tone arm leads to the cart first. If you slip, the cart will dangle there rather than hitting the plinth or ground. 
Tom Evans "The Groove" Power cord...
I have the Groove which I have used with Shunyata Taipan, Virtual Dynamics Nite, Silent Source, TG Audio HSR and Moray James power cords. The differences were not that big. I like the Moray James best in my system.I never had the original power co... 
WILSON AUDIO/ cost vs. value
Holleneck: "I am sure he never thought for a minute it would be shown on the internet and be discussed by some nuckleheads like us"Maybe you are right on this one. But I still stand by my assertion that the program was silly. Nothing more to say. 
WILSON AUDIO/ cost vs. value
Holenneck, I have been following this thread and since it started. Wilson threads are always interesting.First, I applaud Dave Wilson for his success. I see nothing wrong with him charging 28k for his WP8. There are buyers out there for the speake... 
WILSON AUDIO/ cost vs. value
Re: Holeneck. What a pile of bullshit. Regardless of who is the subject of this so called doccumentary (it could be any of two dozen or more manufacturers) but all we have here is simply a bunch of clueless cheerleaders. Dave Wilson is in my opino...

What happens when the Wife cleans the audio room
Once you have found your ideal speaker position, write it down. Be very detailed. That way if you do decide to move them (or the wife does) you have your position recorded.My ex-wife once cleaned all of my gear with orange glow. I spent a hours tr...
