Ethernet Cables - what are you using and why?
I bought Blue Jeans cable Cat 6.  40 ft was $50 or so.  
Burning-in as a non-linear experience
I have this happen every time I unhook wires or have to mess with the springs under my speakers.  It takes a couple days. I have ribbon speaker wires and spades would not stay tight so I  had new ends installed. In the mean time, I bought Chines...

Another good funky bunch is Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio. Hammond B3 anyone?

@stuartk Thanks I will check them out!  
Integrated for Cornwall IV
It also depends how loud you play it.  Cornwall are very efficient and are fast, dynamic, clear, bass authority, but subs help. A 25W Pass will drive them or Luxman or Sugden.  The Pass integrated is pricy but excellent.  I had an 20W Aegir and i...

Several New Mastersounds albums have some brass.  Also, look under Eddie Roberts. Polyrhythmics is another great funk jam band.  Complete with horn section.  I have also listened to Lettuce who are along the same musical styles.  
If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments?
It would be sheer luck to have a room that doesn't need treatment, unless a person doesn't care, or doesn't know. The cost of room treatment for me was $1100.   It is hard to integrate room treatment with living areas. I have a room that I can d... 
40+ watts SET, cost is not a problem
I am not a tube amp expert.  I am being inundated with Upscale Audio ads.  I just saw a Western Electric integrated.  Has to be special ordered, so that could be a problem.  20W, 49 lbs.300B made in USA at their plant.  Sorry if I'm not on target,... 
Am I right for this forum?
I came to Agon without a working system.  I don't have much selection in this town.  I kept some stuff I got from my friend.  Modified pro stuff. I started there. Also had some Klipsch RF3. So I got lots of help here and reading around.  I enjoy ...

The Nashville Sessions 1 or 2.  If you like English funk?  A drummer friend who went with me explained it to me but I had never heard of that style.  All I know is I like the band. Eddie Roberts solo work is good as well.  I like almost all their ... 
Spendor D7.2 Pairing - First Watt F8
Volti, Daedelus, DeVore, Klipsch are all good choice, Klipsch will play the loudest.  While you're at it, buy an XA25,. Lots more extra power.  Used $3000  
Subwoofer Out VS Subwoofer Crossover
I disagree with some. 1.  Bass is the bigger power user from your amp. I would plan on 200W unless subs are very efficient.  Powered subs.are fine. Splitting the signal is fine.  I don't run full range through my mains.  IM distortion is in main...

Saw the New Mastersounds last Friday. Eddie Roberts is a super guitar player, playing a Gibson hollow body.  A wonderful blend of funk and jazz.  There are solo records and plenty of band albums.  He mentors new groups and has put them on his reco... 
The receiver was my intro to HiFi! What say you?
Sony V-Fet 125W can't remember the model.  I blew it up twice but it sounded good.  I had a Leach DIY Class A that was really good after that.  
How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits
Is the "Nordost" wire sold in bulk?  The banana plugs and spades sure are.  I have seen some pretty nice rolls of wire available.  So, if this is true, is it infringement?
