Worst print ads in the history of high-end audio, IMO. 
Which Solid-State Preamp under $7,000.00 New?
Yes, I bought the used one. Why? Is it a lemon? 
"Trickle up" theory
Unsound, I don't think the timing thing is about speed, or at least not speed alone. It is about correctness of timing, or its coherence, or something else,though I'm not sure I know what it means. You know it when you hear it, I suppose. Johnnant... 
Marimba music
Thanks. I have heard of very few of those artists.

Which Solid-State Preamp under $7,000.00 New?
They don't dislike the Pass, they're just having some fun.Nrchy, I just picked up a Klyne too (really). Hasn't arrived yet, but it sounds like I will dig it. Anybody want to buy my Pass preamp? 
Has anyone heard the new Vandersteen Quatro?
Around $6K is what I recall. 
What is the Bang & Olufsen ICEpower technology?
When I read the recent TAS review of the exotic new Beolab speaker, I wondered how much of the sound of that speaker, which the reviewer seemed to like very much, was a result of the 2500 watts of ICEpower amplification built in.

Great post, Nrenter. Why do you think it is that you have that experience at Jeff's? And do you ever have it at your place?

Oh, I just need an attitude adjustment. Or The Analog Room ownership does. Oh, hell, both of us do.

Yes, one of several reasons to not set foot in that store.
