Shopping for Interconnects
No one mentioned PBJ????You might also look at Kimber Kable - note: Amazon has a lot of fakes https://www.kimber.com/counterfeits. Ray Kimber will take old Kimber in trade.  That's when many found out that the stuff they have is fake, so buy only ... 
Goldenear Reference Vs. Focal Sopra #2.....pocket the $5k difference and don't look back?
I agree with the previous poster, at 8500$ there are certainly as good or  at least slightly better speakers that the GE Reference.  OTOH, the Reference model is considerably better than any of the Tritons.  I found the Tritons more beamy than man...

Would anyone like a tube hour counter for amps that don't have this function ?
Interested. Why not a small microcontroller with an LED display, that is resettable? You could do a current sensing "tap", so you know when that device under test is on; no need for a thermistor or to plug in to the power conditioner.  With batter... 
2017 ‘Keeper’ speakers under - $25K
I have always liked Martin-Logans (though they were always with a subwoofer, usually beyond my budget). I liked the newest, bigger Maggies.  Never ever liked Golden Tritons, I thought they were un-listenable or so restricted to a sweet spot they w...
