Thundercat, unbelievable  
Modest cost DC power supply
Yes Teddy Pardo! I have one on my RME-ADI FS DAC and it lowers the noise floor, improves dynamics. Great Company  
Sade This Far
I also am very much a Sade fan and was hoping for great things with this release. I’m sorry for your disappointment. I decided to go back to either original pressings or the audio fidelity releases. Yeah I’m glad you posted this because too many c... 
The Spatial Audio M Series Sapphire Loudspeakers reviews ! Best Kept Secret
I own the M3 Sapphires for about a year. OB are amazing but are very much room dependent. I worked on diffusion and absorption for a while until I got them sounding great. They also love tubes! 
Purchasing from High-End-Turntables customs fees
I guess google is my friend. Grey market and no positive reviews.

Feickert Woodpecker vs Acoustic Signature Double X
@mijostyn I’m in Westport Mass but I go up to Winnipesaukee for the summers. Are you up in NH? 
Feickert Woodpecker vs Acoustic Signature Double X
I can speak for the AS line. I have Triple X with the 12” TA 1000. It is simply amazing, speed accurate and build/engineering is top notch. Double X is also a mass turntable and does not suffer from any vibrations, rumble  or noise. I love my Trip... 
power conditioners in $3000 to $5000 range
Had both and now have the SR Powercell 8 UEF SE. a lot of SR haters on Agon but it is what it is. Phenomenal! 
Experience with HFTs
