How Do You Feel about The Cable Game?
Hifimaniac,I used to have the Powercell SE. There are much better power conditioners out there these days. I have the Shunyata Triton now -- a great unit. Have you considered upgrading? 
How Do You Feel about The Cable Game?
Hifimaniac,You stated, "If audiophiles would try some of his room treatments they might avoid the upgrade urge and mistake." I agree. Actually, I still have the SR ART system in my room and I like it very much. It is part of my extensive room trea...

Jmcgrogan2,It is unfortunate that so many posters are so serious here. A few have appreciated the humor in my OP -- but some seem to prefer to live in the past, digging into the Audiogon Archives to try to discredit the messenger rather than appre... 
How Do You Feel about The Cable Game?
Mofimadness,The OP was about having some fun with cable companies and how they market their products. It seems like you want to change that into a new OP called "Sabai's Love-Hate Relationship with Cable Companies". LOL.I have gone through a lot m...

PS Audio unveils their PS Audio Directstream DAC
Jon2020,That's not the way it works. There is no such thing as an instant install of all versions simultaneously -- and an instant comparison switch. You need to use an SD card for each version and reboot each time. 
PS Audio unveils their PS Audio Directstream DAC
Jon2020,My system is not on the "dry side". I have a tube amp and a tube preamp. By the way, all PS Audio firmware versions are already "switchable on a whim". All you need to do is insert the SD card and away you go. So, there is never a problem ...
