xlr splitter?
Purist Audio makes a splitter that you can plug into your pre amp out and convert to two outputs without any cables. If you want a custom made y cable splitter, call John at KCI. 
Heavy Power Cords
My amps are on 7" amp stands and had the same problem. I just made some cable lifters the same height as the iec and used rubber bands to hold the cords in place. I still had to use the teflon tape on the cord ends but now it is straight with the ... 
New Audiophile Tweak - Cloak your system
Sounds like Stardate 5027.3 to me. Beam me up Scotty!!!!!!!!!!!! 
Bi-amping via Y-cables sound quality
BMW, if you are insisting on using a y-connector and you are sure of what cables you want, why not have a y cable made up to the length you want. I have seen JPS and KCI y cables at over a meter in length. This would be a better way than inserting... 
Speaker noise - hissing
Adam, one other thing. The AA amps should be dead quiet. No hiss, no noise just a very slight audible hum with the volume full when your ear is about an inch away from the midwoof. 
Speaker noise - hissing
Adam, I had the same problem with one of my AA Transtracs last summer. It ended up being one of the output tubes causing the hiss. Luckily I had some extra tubes to troubleshoot and replace the faulty tube. 
Anyone heard Christian Scott, new trumpeter?
I have his Anthem and Rewind That cd. Both are great cds, well recorded and top notch performance. If you want to show off your system, put Like That on and sit back and smile.I too will have to order Live and Newport. 
Modern day female jazz recommendations
Kellylee Evans. Her first cd "Fight or Flight" for something new and different. All original songs and an excellent performance and recording. 
Black Raviolis
Adam, the black raviolis do work under tube gear. When I had my amp serviced last year I demoed them under it with positive results, especially with piano music. I did not purchase any because I already have BDR and Hrs isolation and platforms. I ... 
KCI Pure Gold and the benefits
Art, I did not have the 26awg Silkworm. When I talked to John last year and informed him of my one ic system, getting the 22awg was the way to go with the Furutechs xlrs on the ends. 
KCI Pure Gold and the benefits
Arthur and Psjulian, I been using an Silkworm at 22awg with the Furutech rhodium xlrs for about a year now. The 22awg is costly but for a one cable system that was the way to go. As for the Furutechs, they are a death grip on the cdp and amp. They... 
Down-firing subs and downstairs neighbors
Abarnett, I live in an upstairs duplex with two downfiring MJ subs. So far it has been good with no complaints. I did do the Auralex with bass traps, sound absobtion panels and diffusion (check out Guitar Center for the roominator kit). The living... 
bi amping question
Fordmod, try the y cable out. I have had good success with one at each amp. Till funds allow, then I'll go with the active crossover and additional cables.If you need an xlr y cable that you just want to try out, check out Guitar Center. 
Cable Management
JMO, I know what you mean by the cables looking like a can of worms. I ended up putting my amps and cdp on amp stands. This way I can run the cables not only behind the stands but also underneath. Also try some cable lifters if any cables come clo...

Great, thats what we have to do now, get brass screws. Oil, gas, gold, copper now brass will become the next commodity that will will 10fold in the next few months by people like us creating a shortage. Maybe we should keep a lid on this tweak so ...
