Where to buy amr fuses?
I just looked up Avatar Acoustics on Yahoo.  It appears that they are now a construction company and no longer an audio dealership.https://start.cortera.com/company/research/k6q1nwo7m/avatar-acoustics/

High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz
Pete,The sad part of all of this, and we all do it, is that at $1,000.00 for four MC-0.5 pieces, and you have 28, that's $7,000.00.  It might have gone towards a power cord, but which investment would be the better one? 
Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?
Geoff,I thought that you'd gotten it. I just couldn't understand why you went along and added fuel to the fire instead of just letting it die out like it probably should have.

I agree with NoNoise. I find it interesting that the original intention of this thread doesn’t seem to have been uncovered in these past two and a half months. 
Help Picking a turntable
As SBank said, there's a lot of cost involved in a complete turntable setup.Have you thought about upgrading your 280D and seeing what's to be had as you climb up the digital ladder?   If you bought the Simaudio from your dealer, how about auditio... 
Is an I2S cable a Cat 5, 6 or 7 Ethernet cable, or are they two different beasts?
Alan,So I2S has nothing to do with a specific cable.  It's a defined transmission protocol that a DAC may be designed to use as one of its inputs, laying out what internally wired pins are used.Given that, then some cables with J45 connectors that...

Lumin Streamer as Preamp
When I first purchased my Lumin, I ran it directly into my amp.  Over time I realized that the Lumin sounded it's best when its volume level is set to 100 ( wide open ).I sold my amp and purchased an integrated amp so that I could set the Lumin's ... 
Tried Dynaudio Sapphires with Moon 330A + 330p - very disappointing
I have a Simaudio 600i ( Evolution series ) integrated driving my Dynaudio C1 speakers and it sounds great!  What source are you using?  It's been said before, you don't drive $16,000.00 speakers with lower quality components. 
Mark Levinson No. 585
Jim,   I've listened to the 585 numerous times with quite a few different speakers.  I wanted to buy one, but the cost was too much for me to justify.  You'll love it!  It will match up with the Thiel 2.4SE really well and it has all the power you... 
In Memory of Glenn Frey...Favorite Eagles song?
Although this was not an Eagles song, "Smuggler’s Blues". I can’t seem to find it anywhere now, but I really wish that I could.https://search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=Ap7JzWRDMaebKTMfSwogQcybvZx4?fr=yfp-t-901-s&toggle=1&fp=1&cop=mss&e... 
Blue Circle's PLC -2 Thingee conditioner versus Transparent Audio PLC 6 conditioner???:
I also have a Thingee and really, really like it.  If you can go an extra hundred, I'd suggest the PLC Thingee FX2 X0e 6 outlet Power Conditioner ( $495.00 ).Like Schubert, I also have the Puck that plugs directly into the wall ($100.00 ).  The tw...

Chris,The dealer is Audio Solutions in Indianapolis, IN.  The setup was the Lumin A1 Network Player ( which I also have at home ) and the new Mark Levinson 585 Integrated Amp.  I wasn't interested in buying new speakers, but I was there for two ho...
