Clear Day vs. Triode Wire Labs speaker cables
I recently replaced Kimber 8tc cables with Clear Day double shotguns. Over time I've changed out amps, pre amps, sources, DACs and nothing improved my system more than the Clear Day speaker cables. I recommend giving them a try.  
Eliminating hum
Thanks for the info. One more question. If there is a hum generated from a ground loop would it be there say at the end of a song or between tracks when listening to the CDP? 
Preamp upgrade
Well I upgraded to the threshold. Exceeded my expectations. The forte sounded good but the threshold sounds better. More depth to the music. Sounds very natural. Worth $700.00 for sure. 
Preamp upgrade
Currently using an emotiva erc1 CD player through a music hall 25.3 DAC to the Forte F44 pre. The power map is a threshold model S 200. The speakers are MA RX8's. To me it sounds good but always looking for more. 
audiphile power cords
Lots of different opinions. I think that's what makes this hobby interesting. Sounds like the best approach for me is to maybe purchase used merchandise and see how it works out for me in my system. Is 50% of new retail in line for used merchandis... 
biasing for 4 ohm speakers
Thanks for the feedback. I'm new to tube amps and your feedback is very helpful. 
jolida 502P bias question
VeromanWhat was your opinion of the amp? Did you tweak anything or change tubes?
