Ethernet cables
Maybe we could ask for peoples experience with digital cables on their streaming system. Also, have these people identify their system. One person may say they can’t hear a difference and have a system that isn’t very revealing. Another might sa... 
Handling Heavy Amps
Anyone in the central NJ area - my audiophile friends and I will come help you with your equipment. Cost - join our small group which casually gets together to have a bite to eat, share a good glass of wine and listen to each others systems and mu... 
Triode Wire Labs
Triode Wire Labs makes excellent cables, especially when you consider their cost. Have I found better - yes, for about 6 - 10 times the price. And for the record, I have no affiliation with Triode Wire Labs.

Dedicated line help
A few things I've learned, but I'm by far not the most knowledgeable in this area. - Run dedicated lines, 20 amp circuits, oversizing the ROM-X wire to 10 gauge helps.  - There debate to use aluminum armored cables as a shielding, not sure of th... 
Can Anyone Recommend a Repair Shop in NJ to Fix a Pioneer Elite Blu Ray Player?
Didn't get to address this yet as I'm in the process of moving. My friend (who's owns the player) isn't in a rush but we'd like to visit a local facility this month. I'll certainly post our experience. Thanks again, very much appreciated :-)

Interesting video on cables
Gentlemen - cables certainly make a difference. The purpose of a cable is to transmit a signal while causing the least harm. Or, stated another way - with the highest fidelity. Technically, how do cable transfer the signals? Explaining the many ... 
If the DAC is the same, how different do CD transports sound?
Gentlemen - I usually refrain from contributing to such post but I'm compelled to do so this time. First - a system has to be of high fidelity to be able to distinguish the differences of anything. The system includes equipment, it's set up and t... 
Review: Running Springs Audio Dmitri AC filter
I have a Dimitri - loaned it to a good friend who is enjoying it immensely, It’s a GREAT passive power conditioner - especially considering the price that they’re currently selling for. Before I go on - I’d like to state, passive power condition... 
Pls help me decide Pass Labs X250.8 or Luxman M900u
Great to hear from you soix! We have a group of 3 other local audiophile friends, we get together periodically to enjoy a few hours of music and food. It's always casual - nothing extravagant but an enjoyable few hours. We rotate at each other's... 
Pls help me decide Pass Labs X250.8 or Luxman M900u
I hardly contribute because of all the negative responses, so I hope I don't regret this. My experience was with Pass amplifiers, all driving a pair of Wilson Watt Puppy 5.1 speakers - which present a very difficult load, are very efficient and r... 
Stereophile review of Millercarbon system featuring Tektron speakers
