I'm using a Lyra with no problem.Call Bruce and ask him. 
b&k avr 507 or nad t773?
Check out Outlaw 950&7100 combo.Great value and excellent performance. 
How frequently do you check Audiogon listings?
Once a day.It's like shopping at Big Lots.You never know what you'll find. 
What do I upgrade next to soothe the soul?
Give Robert Taylor at Taylor House a call.He is about an hour west of Charlotte and is very helpfull.I've known him for 20 years and he won't steer you wrong.His # is 704-483-5730 and good luck. 
Music to warm up with???
Jimmy Buffet A1A or any other asorted sundries. 
Do You Remember Your First Music Purchase?
For me it was America's Horse With No Name.Still plays fine after all those years. 
Good speaker cables for tube amp's??????
I'm using FIM Gold for top and bottom and they sound great.Very neutral with deep base. 
Upgrade Sota Saphire vs. Buy New Turntable
Give Donna at Sota a call.You can have that sapphire upgraded to a Star or perhaps a Nova for a very reasonable cost.Check out their site at www.sotaturntables.com and good luck. 
American made TT???
Sota definetly.A refurbished star will set you back 1500 and hard to beat for the money.Tell Donna Frank sends his best. 
FatMan K or Whale elite for your power-amps ?
I've used both and the whale wins hands down.More open and natural sound also much better value.Drop me an email if you want to talk about it.

Review: BMI SHARK Power cord
Great review!!!You have pretty much summed it up as well as anyone could do.Unfortunatly I only have one Shark at the present,the rest being Whales and one Top Gun.As far as the Shark is concerned,there is no other PC on the market that can match ...
