Another MC402 Question
Good luck fundsgon, the rabbits in my yard won’t even bring me a Cadbury Egg very selfish critters  
Another MC402 Question
Fundsgon, (love the moniker) I had wanted to transition back to solid state or I would have kept the REF5se. But when I decided to go back I couldn’t afford a REF6, and although I am sure that the REF6 is far superior to The LS28SE, I am very happ... 
Another MC402 Question
I have had my 402 since 2008 and have been very happy with it. I am driving SF Olympica Nova III’s as well. I have used this amp with Audio Research LS26, REF 5se, Ayre KX5 twenty (very short time) and now LS28SE. I would like to step up to mono b... 
bulbs
It has been a while since I had changed them on a MC352 and MC7205. But I downloaded a service manual to see how you can get to the bulb rail. I am assuming you are talking about meter lights? But once you have the rails or light strips out you mu... 
Power Supply for AudioDesk Vinyl Cleaner Pro
THe Cable Company distributes them, I am sure they would have some available.   
Is there a solid fuse-like item that I can use in place of a fuse, to bypass it?
Why? By removing the fuse, your equipment becomes vulnerable to being destroyed should a surge take place. The fuse is a sacrificial part of the electrical circuit rather than a circuit board, capacitor, resister, etc.

Sonus faber choices - help me decide
Although I have not heard the Futuras, I would imagine at their price point they would sound better than the Nova. I myself could not afford the Amati, so I never took the time to audition. But after 3 years of auditioning speakers, I settled on t...

Audio Desk ultrasonic vinyl cleaner machine
Bslon, ironically I replaced a 16.5 with mine as well, although it was a work horse.  I also installed a ball valve drain on mine too, since I don’t clean all the time, I wanted to reduce evaporation which might change the solution mix, should t... 
Audio Desk ultrasonic vinyl cleaner machine
I have had mine for a couple years and am very happy with it. Although it isn’t a miracle worker, if the record has certain types of clicks or ticks, you  don’t erase them. Certain “ticks” etc are there and stay there. But it does a great job o... 
AES/EBU vs SPDIF and AES/EBU to SPDIF adaptor
Jim, thank you for your response. I should have worded my question better  as I think my point wasn’t clear. Basically is there a difference in the digital domain, using an AES output on a source component via a AES to SPIDF adapter vs a AES to... 
AVR in a HT Bypass setup
I traded an older Anthem D2V in on a Marantz AV8805 and have been very happy with the results. I find the Marantz much easier to understand and get along with. Also the Marantz is warmer and much less analytical.  
Have you ever been turned off by an Arrogant Dealer? Thoughts
Arrogance is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of ignorance
