Simple enough?

The AirSine is a good cord, and with the generous MBG offered by Chris Venhaus, you really can't lose.

Warren,
I'm hesitant to get rid of my baby, but given your predicament, I will sell you the PC off our Francis!Francis! X5 espresso machine. Believe it or not, it bested the Elrod EPS2-Sig on our Lamm preamp (although the Elrod was a sound upgrade for the foam on our latte's), and it fits all of your criteria. I'm sure you could get a similar one at the local Rat Shack, but you never know what you're buying, do you? I'm willing to sacrifice this one at $247.57, and I'll even hand deliver it to you. Please don't ask me where I got that figure. It just seemed a fair number when I read it on Expedia. Should I bring my shearling this time of year?

Good to hear that you're back. Maybe that's why you haven't responded to my email. They may have let you out a little early? Don't forget your meds, now..lol...

I'd like to see some pics too! It's fun to see all these great systems! Also, not to sound stupid (which comes naturally for me sometimes), but why is a 10 guage required for the power conditioner if it just feeds the CDP?

why is a 10 guage required for the power conditioner if it just feeds the CDP?

It's not required. Certainly when feeding just a CDP. However, Audio Magic wires their power conditioners with 10 gauge wire, so why not keep some consistency there? Also, my experience, which is simply my own observation, has been that larger gauge cords feeding power conditioners contribute to a more open sound and a larger soundstage. Could be psychoacoustics at play...

Anyway, from a practical standpoint, I see no reason to feed a conditioner wired with 10 gauge wire with a power cord constructed from smaller gauge conductors.
