Network Acoustics ENO USB III -vs- Sablon Panatela Reserva 2020
I also use the Sablon 2020.  Replaced a WireWorld Platinum and Audience frontRow.  Very pleased with the presentation that this cable provides in my system (Wolf Audio Alpha3sx > Gryphon).   
What are the top 3 USB cables being used today in reference systems?
Sablon 2020 USB replaced a few in my system the were much more costly.   
Why did my amp just crash and burn ?
@chaseton Glad you found the fuse drawer and especially the fact that there was a spare present. Remember now to acquire another fuse to put into the “spare” slot for future use if needed. Again congratulations.  
Why did my amp just crash and burn ?
Looking at pictures of the amp the fuse is in a tiny drawer just above the connector for the power cord.  The drawers are sometimes stiff to pull out but that is by design.  Also occasionally they contain a spare fuse.    
Best server to house Roon and 4 TB of music feeding DCS Vivaldi Upsampler and Dac
Contact Wolf Audio in Jacksonville FL and speak to Joe Parvey.  My Wolf Alpha 3 can have up to 12TB of internal SS drives, I believe, though I use a 20TB NAS on my network for music storage.  I use Roon as my interface and  its perfectly quiet.  
MM or MC cartridge for Mm input on Preamp
As @lewm stated above with the wide range of 50 to 65db on the Steelheads MM input you have the option of using a MM, HOMC, and many LOMC (possibly greater than 0.24mV output).  This flexibility is not present in many other phono preamps where the... 
Integrated tube amp with phono pre - need recco
Find a used VAC integrated. Excellent amp and phono section.   
Is There A Device For Home Use That Can Measure How Low The Bass In My Speakers Is?
Usually you have a source with the Hertz that you choose to test and use the dB as the test result.  There are cell phone and tablet apps to do this measuring.  Improved results can be had if a separate microphone is acquired.  
Receiving my Townshend Audio Podiums Monday. How to?
You should try and discern where the podium should be placed to have your speaker centered as well as possible and it being in the position that you have measured for the speaker.  Speaking from experience owning the podiums one your are close you... 
Opportunity to buy Demo Magico M2?
I strongly agree with @ronboco on the Rockport Avior II.  I am currently using a Diablo 300 on older Rockport Mira II.  I love this combination and it is my understanding that Rockport uses Gryphon amps at the factory.    
What do you use to keep high gloss speakers clean?
@buellrider97  Totally agree about the brillianize!  Started using it years ago for my plexiglass cover over my turntable and eventually on all my high gloss items.  Love its ease and the outcome of its application.  
Gryphon Amp Owners: Results with AQ Niagara?
I run my Gryphon Diablo 300 into a Synergistic Powercell 12 UEF SE with no degradation of sound quality.  I have spent time with the Diablo plugged directly into the wall as a comparison.   
Feickert Blackbird vs Clearaudio Ovation vs Origin Live Sovreign
@arize84 I do believe there may be a slight performance edge to the Soverign but the Enterprise arm will be a great equalizer as its performance can be exceptional on any table. I personally would consider the Pure Fidelity table for its combinati... 
Feickert Blackbird vs Clearaudio Ovation vs Origin Live Sovreign
I have an Origin Live Sovereign with the two arm option.  Currently employ an Enterprise mk4 and an Illustrious 3c.  Excellent table (my third OL) but the design sometimes does not fit certain decors.  A good friend recently acquired a Pure Fideli... 
Phono Stage upgrade to complement Dohmann Helix One Mk 2
I own the DSA Phono2. My previous phono preamp was a VAC so they are both excellent but different. The DSA phono preamps have 3 inputs (both RCA and XLR) and each will remember the setting for that input. I have two tonearms on my table one with a...
