Tube rolling for Jolida 502B
Beernut I thought you had a 302B. Perhaps I am mistaken. 
Amplifier Decision - Audio Research vs Krell
I am a very satsified Krell 400cx owner but in this particular case I agree the ARC will likely work best for you in this application. I am also a tube lover but I could not drive my Thiels with it. Happy listening. 
Can I put receiver and CD player on top of my sub?
NO! Bad! Shame! 
Looking for a great arm that is low maintenence
Nrchy, the SME is totally maintenance free. I had a IV before the JMW 10.5 and it was completely troublefree and once set, forget it. The JMW however has me reaching for the VTA frequently... 
Vinyl Cleaning Fluid for VPI RCM
After trying all the other fluids, I like RRL products, by far, the best.

Any opinions on PS Audio Power Plants

Review: Krell FPB-700cx Amplifier
I believe that Nrchy no longer has those 700cxs...correct? 
Spectacular Drum Set?
Moby Dick by Zeppelin on Classic Records reissue vinyl. Bonzo just gets those flammin kick and toms going and the cones on the speakers start rumblin and shaking. Freaking Excellent. 
Which companies also offer good service??
Thiel Audio and Shari is the epitome of customer service! 
What power is required to drive Paradigm 100's
I used to have Studio 100s V! powered by a Bryston 4BST to excellent success. A Parasound amp will also do the trick.
