Punchy power cord
Hi Ramesh,the first thing that comes to mind when you said punchy power cord is the NBS Monitor O, great on my EMC 1. If I remember correctly as I used to have the PS Lab power cord (original one) and I believe their anything but punchy. The only ... 
Best DVD plyr for under 1000 new or used ?
I currently own both Sony 9000ES and Toshiba SD-9200 and I love them both, you can't go wrong with either one. One thing that may help you decide is which do you prefer SACD or DVD-Audio? 
Best 2.1 PC Speaker System?
Aego2, I agree with Hueske. 
klipsch 4.1 is the best.
Aego2, stereophile and TAS got this one right on the money. 
Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s
I used to own a Thiel CS3.6 myself being driven by a Krell FPB200, that was a good match with NBS Monitor series cabling. The FPB series Krell amps in my opinion is a good match for the Thiels with the right cabling and room acoustics I have not h... 
Dead advice on high end stereo/HT mix
With the speakers that will blend with the Thiel 3.6's the closest to your price range in my opinion are the Monitor Audio Silver series 12i for center,either get the 4i's or the Silver Series Dipole surrounds, then get a Parasound 3 or 5 channel ... 
Krell amps with tubed pre-amps
Hi Alb24, I am using a Sonic Frontiers Line 2SE on my Krell FPB 200 and to say the least I'm pretty happy with the combination. The minor adjustment that you mentioned is just a couple of jumpers that you need to take out and it takes 5 minutes it... 
Transparent VS Pure Note IC
I had both in my system one time or another and one thing I found out is if the cables have a network box no matter how expensive it is, it's going to roll off some of the highs, to what degree is a matter of how high the cable is on the cable lin... 
EMC1 upgraded versus MKII
Hi, I had my EMC 1 upgraded to 24/192 status at SOS and I am very happy with the improvement. One thing I did not expect though was I have to raise my volume on my preamp (SF Line 2SE) from my usual 60 setting to about 72-74 to reach the same volu... 
What to do... US Postal Money order not received.
I agree with Swampwalker if the money you need to send is more than $300 the $12 for express overnight mail is very much worth it for peace of mind. If less than $300 certified mail for around $2 is a good choice also.Another tip for sending a mon...

Does component video switching hurt picture?
I have a Ref 30 pre/pro that is capable of comp. video cable switching but I never use it, I did not compare them side by side as I'm convinced that direct video from source to receiver (progressive scan capable monitor) is always going to give me... 
new Electrocompaniet vs older LINN Karik/Nemeric?
I use to own the Genki and when I upgraded almost two years ago my choices were narrowed down to the Ikemi and the EMC 1 (not the 24/192).Like you I love the Linn sound so I'm very familiar with the Ikemi. By reading what people say about the two ... 
Recommedations please for a power cord for amp.
For the $200 price range I'll look into Silver Audio's power burst, I sold mine for $120 back then only to be replaced by a power cord on the $1000 price range, what I mean is you have to go five times it's price to beat it's performance, again re... 
Which MIT cables for Thiel???
NBS Monitor series cabling is another excelent match for Thiel speakers.
