It’s all about who mastered the recording. The 60’s thru 80’s pressings I own, the mastering varies. I would have to say that even the worst mastering of the classic pressings are still better compared to the ill non-experienced mastering going on...

David Pritchard,Ok, it's been about 5 months and what I found out is that my amplifiers do not like the powercell, so they are hooked up to a different power conditioner and the rest of my system is straight to the powercell. Dynamics are back in...

The SR Red Fuses are the single most best upgrade I have witnessed in my system, it makes the speakers disappear with a soundstage that is 3D holographic.  Best $100.00 spent ever!
