Live or Recorded; A Faustian response
Please show me an experience you go through, which is NOT authentic as an experience per se? Even if I would only hallucinate, that I'm writing this at the moment into my computer, it is still authentic, as MY experience of writing this at this ve... 
Do power conditioners really help?
Flemke and Cornfed are right in my opinion. Try to get the old type screw in ceramic fuses instead of circuit breakers. These things are reported as noisy. 
NEW Power Treatment Technique
This is only half measures: To finally have an entirely dark background I've removed the main fuse of the house. Now at last everything is quiet, I have peace of mind and this ultimate upgrade even helps to save money.

Live or Recorded; A Faustian response
Shubertmaniac, interesting that you call responding to recorded music more passive than reacting to a live event. Obviously we are all different. I personally get drawn into the music here or there, especially if my system gets the gestalt of the ...

I'm with Greg and Albert for the same reasons. 
Have you ever broken the needle?
The significant other found the platter dusty, took a cloth to clean it, the rest you can work out for yourself. After I've had my fit, she promised to leave dust as dust.....and Kelly, you must have gotten up on the wrong foot this morning...Cheers,

Where can I get RAM super low noise tubes?
Does not look to me, that the above mentioned article answers Sean's very well founded question. I sincerely hope RM will come back to this thread. He, by the way, was the designer of a wonderful preamp marketed by Beveridge, which a hatchet job r... 
Speakers to hang on to for LIFE
I wish, I still had my old Servo-Static panels, especially for their tweeter elements. Sigh.... 
Brightness Differences Between Daytime and Evening
Rcprince, I wished I had, but I'm afraid I haven't in the least, except for the fact, that I share your experience. As far as the equipment goes, yes, there is less hash in the powerline and my Jadis gear will indeed behave in the way described ab... 
Best transport to use with Jadis JS 1 tube dac
Rcprince, LOL. Can't say speak for yourself...you spoke for both of us. Cheers, 
Which tubes is better. Siemens or Telefunken?
