My Apologies to Miller Carbon

Just when you start to think MC isnt quite so bad, he then has to post something. You let others take about your merits other than talking about them yourself. So even if half of what he posts about himself is true, I am still not interested in what he has to say. 

Leave on or turn off?  My amp, Hegel H590, as well as my CD Transport, both go into standby mode when sitting idle for about 15 minutes.  Not sure if this equates to disconnecting the power supply but the manufacturer clearly did not intend to have the equipment left "turned on" all the time?  

I think millercarbon knows his stuff and his recommendations are solid. You might not want to "go the distance" like he does but his path to the best sound is true.

I’m going all in on Townshend vibration isolation and F-1 cables as I’ve been wanting to upgrade my cables for awhile. I’ve had Townshend Seismic Sinks for a long time and believe in their products. I’ve seen plenty of nice system pictures with Townshend Podiums under expensive speakers so that has nothing to do with MC.

Vibration isolation matters. Whichever product you use is better than none I would imagine.

Going with Moneoone power cables as well.

My favorite Millercarbon story is about the night I got the 10 pm phone call from him as he took a break from listening to his system:

Me: "Hello?"

Him: "Frank ... this is Chuck. I had to call someone who would understand!"

Me: "I know how you feel."

Him: "This is unbelievable!"

Me: "I know."

Him: "Goodnight."

Me: "Goodnight."

I still laugh about this. In fact, I’m laughing as I write this.
