| Is it ok for tube amp directly to the outlet? Another recommendation here to go straight into the wall. If you don't already have a dedicated electrical line coming to the outlet, do that before reverting back to a power conditioner. | |
| Io line out mod? Talk with Glenn at (805) 529-9901 (this number worked for me a few months ago). His email address is glenn@aesthetix.net. | |
| Which stand would best for tube mono amps? Sistrum Coacher, I can't answer you about the difference in the two platforms you've specified, but I can highly recommend the Walker Audio amp stands.

| Wow I just got the KAB strobe I agree with the recommendation of the KAB Strobe. This is a very accurate and easy to use tool. | |
| Home Wiring? No1willfan, in each of three different homes where I ran dedicated electrical circuits to my audio system, the improvements were very noticeable and worthwhile. I recommend you move forward with your plans if costs permit. This need not be a hugel... | |

| What has been your most satisfying component? The Walker Audio Procenium Turntable, without any question. This turntable enhanced our enjoyment of our extensive vinyl collection more than any other change we've ever made to our system.. | |
