Jethro Tull
Tull has always been my favorite artist. Unfortunately they have been one of the worst for sound quality. I agree that the Xmas album is awesome along with the live Aqualung. Finally some fidelity! I never understood what Mr. Anderson was thinking... 
Your favorite prog rock music? ?
Unbelievable ! I thought I was the only one who listened to these classic relics! Someone else owns a PFM LP? Anyone else own "Scarlet Rivera"? -JohnPS - Awesome thread. Now I don't feel so alone... 
DEFINITIVE TECH TRINITY SIG. SUBWOOFER
I am glad you asked. I have the same basic question and there doesn't seem to be a lot of info out there that I can find. There are hardly ever any used ones for sale on this site. Is it because they are so good or so bad? I do see that Magnolia A... 
Your vote: Most Useless Audio Adjective
Just like Phyllis Diller, my system is just "broken in".That term always cracked me up in regards to cables.-John 
Best CD lens cleaner

technics 1200 cartridge and preamp choices
Howdy. I also have a 1200 & went through a couple different setups before settling on the Shelter 501 & Krell KPE reference pre. I had tried a Grado Reference & their PH1 but felt the sound was a bit constrained. I had also tried a Bla...

Best spot for my rack.
Right below your neck & in between your shoulders should be just about perfect for 50% of the population.

FM tuner use in SF Bay area
I live in a very rural area north of LA & have alwsays had problems with FM reception. I purchased a Magnum Dynalab ST-2FM antenna after trying several others & I must say it works awsome. The key was not to just put it on the roof somewhe... 
Krell Power Cords???
My FPB300cx came stock with #10 wire & works well. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Especially since it is hard wired in. Spend the $ on a case of fine wine. That's bound to change the sound more than a new power cord. 
Static Shock?
I live in So. Cal. & in the fall when the Santa Ana winds kick up the humidity drops down to single digits. This can create some serious finger arcing. For some reason during this condition when I touch my Krell KRC2 pre it will send it in to ...
