Has anybody heard the Dynaudio Evoke 50?

Toe in is crucial
@czarivey  The dealer I bought them from, Brought some reference Media he likes and know what it is supposed to sound like. From there we played my music for the final tweaking that suited my ears. I have the option to move my listening chair back...

It took us 4 hours to get my speaker placement correct, and the use of tape on the floor so you know where you started. That is only part of the equation, room treatment changes everything.  
Wireworld Silver or Gold Eclipse 8 - IC or Speaker Cable?
I have all Silver Eclipes 8 cables on my system, interconnects, XLR and speaker cables. The clarity, and airiness is fact, the articulation on the vocals is very precise. The base is fast and tight, the system itself is bold and present. I still s... 
Have you heard the Goldring Ethos Cartridge?
There was a pleasant difference, the presentation is bolder. Be attributed to silver coil wire. This cart is sensitive to counter weight adjustment. Took awhile to get it correct.

PMC Twenty5.22i
After listening for a while, I noticed how nice and rich the tone is, it is not thin at all, the tweeters are not fatiguing. These are an amazing speaker, I wish they were available when I was first looking for speakers.  
SS Amp Choices
The Kinki studio EX-M1 is an amazing amp. Worth looking into, I had one for a short time, I should have kept it.  
New expensive power cord for amp and no change in sound?
My First experience with power cords was back in the early 90's Being in the electrical field I was sceptical at the same time open minded because all wire is not created equally. The Store had the exact same system as mine, Amp speakers and CD pl... 
New Synergistic Master Fuse
I am done with fuses, stopped at the Orange ones.  
Dedicated mains supply unexpected result
