    Suggestions on how to reduce the chance of power cord interference?

    I have updated my audio rack to the lovan classic I which I am looking forward to. My only concern is its 3 leg design for wire concealment.

    Thornens TD295 MkIVB , Music Hall MMF-5, or Pro-ject Xpression MKII

    Time for a turntable. I have been reading alot of mixed reviews and was curious which would you consider in this price range.

    Ultradisc or MFSL cd's vinyl worth the price?

    I did a brief search but info seems scattered and I was hoping to get a overall view of ppl's opinion if MFSL products are worth the price jump? Is there a sizable difference if you have decent equipment, or is it really just mostly hype?

    Stepped Attenuator?

    Hey I just got my new to me SP MPX Slam amp (and it sounds amazing btw) I think the volume pot was upgraded to a goldpoint stepped attenuator. If anyone has one does it have 'notches' as the volume increases?

    Question of Ohms........

    So I was merrily stumbling along and designing my next set of cans on the beyerdynamic site and came across the option of different ohms. Since its totally my option on which to go with I was wondering if someone would be so kind as to point out the pro's/cons of the 32, 250 or 600 versions. I...

    My head is spinning from to many amp choices
