New $24,000 inter-connect
Personally, I could care less one way or the other how someone else spends their $$. If they got the means, and want to spend it on this IC, more power to ya. Doesn't affect me in the slightest.

What am I missing here? I can find no info on the cards or matts, except pricing on PPT web site. No description of what it does (or doesn't) do in my web search, except for this thread. I am not adverse to trying new tweaks by any means, but need...

What are fuses used for?
Oh boy !! And so it continues ................ 
Turning off tube preamp first sends solid state amp into protection?
Does it matter though, if all components in the chain have mute functions ? I’ve always been curious about this. Out of habit I always follow the above mentioned sequencing, and also leave everything muted during the process, but wonder if it real... 
Drink of choice for serious listening?
BEER !!!!!! 
Discontinued equipment that you wish were still here. What do you miss or think will miss?

BEST FEMALE VOCAL EVER
I really marvel at the range and power of Christina Aguilera, although the style/genre she chooses to engage in does nothing for me. Would be nice to hear her in a jazz trio, or quartet setting.Holly ColeAnne Wilson (early years)Vanessa FernandezG...

A Dimes worth of Improvement
Should they be head, or tails up ??  LOL 
Does this image give you claustrophobia?
Has anyone else noticed the Ortofon cartridge box on the centre mid shelf, but no turntable in sight?
