stereo 90 Rogue amp hum noise
If that is the case, sounds like a ground loop to me. Look through threads here and elsewhere for potential fixes. And/or give Rogue a call. 
Recommendations for 5k upgrade
The DSPeaker Dual Core I mentioned earlier would be a more inexpensive way to get some digital room correction than DEQX. And you have a 30 day return policy at some retailers. (I'd also be curious how it compares to the EE DAC, it could be used w... 
Recommendations for 5k upgrade
Yes, I would agree that the source is where I would direct my attention first. One A'goner recommended the DEQX. Another option would be the DSPeaker Dual Core 2.0. Got a Golden Ear award in TAS, and Kal Rubinson also thought highly of it in Stere... 
stereo 90 Rogue amp hum noise
And does the hum remain at the same level regardless of where the volume control is on the dial? And does this noise remain when nothing else is plugged in? Only the Rogue into the speakers with no RCAs attached to the amp (best to disconnect RCAs... 
PurePowerAPS Canada concern
I think the trick for the quickest customer service is to start an Audiogon thread complaining about PurePower's customer service when handling a repair. 
Adding Tone Controls?
Check out the DSPeaker Dual Core 2.0. A fabulously flexible unit that gives you DSP for under 500Hz, and a full EQ for the entire audio listening band. Balance controls too. 
Choosing between Reissue and Original pressings
Pressings are really a case by case thing in my experience. As such, SH Forum is a great resource to find out about particular pressings. My go-to site for vinyl related questions. That said, there are some details that can help you make educated ... 
10" sub.... 500 price barrier....
I wouldn't pay too much attention to the power of the sub. The sub will be designed with an amp that will be fine with it, at least up to crazy levels. And if you are mainly listening for music, you will be fine. Instead, for music find a sub that... 
Purepower APS a reliable product?
Well, Brf I'd agree, IF it wasn't for other similar threads, and that still doesn't account for the delays and particularly the lack of communication on PurePower's part. 
Purepower APS a reliable product?
That's good to know Foster_9. You appear to be one of the lucky ones. This is the third thread I have seen on Audiogon about PurePower's reliability and/or customer service. Buyer beware. 
Purepower APS a reliable product?
This is not the first post of this sort about Purepower Canada's reliability or support. A shame. 
Rogue Cronus Magnum new with KT120's
I believe that the KT120s do not give any additional power to most Rogue designs. But I did prefer them to my EH KT88s in my Stereo 90. 
An impression of some phono stages
I preferred the Avid Pulsus to the SimAudio 5.3 with optional external power supply that I had. 
High quality AC turntable motor
Although the SDS in some instances needs a capacitor added for some turntable motors 
High quality AC turntable motor
Yes, I think you want to stay away from a high torque motor.
