DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA
All McIntosh transformers are potted with a tar like substance. 
Devialet Expert 220 Pro Power Cable
It has to be converted to 120.  Check with the manufacturer, some companies put a switch inside the unit for that purpose.  Don't know if Devialet does as well.

@tomiiv30............There are two people that wind transformers at McIntosh.  That fact that the amp doesn’t buzz at the dealer is proof the transformer isn’t defective.  Weather or not there is noise on your line I am unable to debate.  There is... 
VPI 40th Anniversary Table After Warranty Support Question
Why not just buy the Technics SL1200G for 4 grand?  It bested my Prime by a long shot and if you are worried about service years from now, there shouldn't be any problems getting it fixed.  Technics makes their own DD motors where VPI purchases th...

@tomiiv30...……………………..McIntosh winds all their transformers in house.  Don't let anyone tell you different.  I toured the factory and watched the person doing it.  This person has been doing it for over 40 years at McIntosh.

New Rega Planer 8 (P8) Turntable - Apheta 2 Cartridge Combo - Thoughts
I went to the Technics Sl1200g TT after owning 3 other turntables.  When I had the other turntables I lost interest in playing vinyl as they didn’t even sound close to my Esoteric SACD Player or to my Sony HAPZ1ES Music Server.   The Technics make...

Power Cord Break In
@elizabeth perhaps it was a joke.  From first through ninth grade I was bullied because part of my last name rhymed with a dirty word.  The kids would sing song it on the school bus to and from school so I am a bit wary when someone attempts a jok... 
Power Cord Break In
You people like to make fun of me because I broke in a cord on my fridge?   Yes, I used a 3 prong adapter to IEC.  Like I said before, there really are a lot of jerks here. 
Q acoustics harsh high end
Don’t make any system changes until the speakers are properly broken in. Otherwise, you will be like a dog, chasing its tail. Once the speakers are run in, then and only then would I consider other options. Patience is a virtue. If you want to bur... 
Krell XD gear in the House Initial Impressions
Congrats on the Krell electronics.  I haven't heard a Krell amp in over20 years and back then I wasn't so impressed.  I guess they made a lot of improvements since then.  I hope you sell many units.  Best of luck.
