Got $1000...how should I spend it?
i say buy a pair of $1000 interconnects--this will piss her off to the point she will leave you-once she is gone, re-sell them on A-gon and spend away. 
90s Britpop.....
Britpop is my favorite genre of music, for some reason, in modern music, the Brits just had more soul and passion as the US rock of the 90s and 2000's with a few exceptions, ie Nirvana. It was always a personal opinion this was such because the UK... 
To all tube lovers.......
Symphonic Line RG1, BEL, Plinius 
Equipment not worth fixing, what to do?
what is wrong with the P300? those are usually re-pairable. 
Just got Audible Illusions L1, but it sound harsh
i think before you drive yourself crazy to take it step by stepin my opinion the first best step would be to replace the tubes. try something older and US made first . Ebay would be a decent, cheaper source 
Tube failure -- what would happen in worst case?
gosh, I remember when I owned Fourier Panthere OTL Monoblocks, I believe r 16 of those Russian 6c33b output tubes per side. I was having noise issues which I was trying to diagnose by swapping one by one. You had to also power down and wait severa... 
members with no feedback?
Foster-9 said "as a seller there is very little to be concerned with"-I beg to differ -having gone through a PayPal chargeback for over $4000 on an item I sold 2 months prior---there are considerable risks from my opinion. I do my homework in any ... 
Anybody have experience with "Janis sub woofers"
I only ran 1 Janis, but as Stanwal says, stereo subs are better. I do belive the Janis was designed/marketed to use one, the fact you have two I would consider as a bonus. But I beleive back in the day, I was told to turn the Janis to the point yo... 
Anybody have experience with "Janis sub woofers"

are subwoofers anti-audiophile?
over the years, I too have found complications, mostly with Panel/electrostats and subs, but with cone speakers, integration was fairly simple.Zydo, I agree with you 110% here: "A good sub, set up the right way, should not even be noticed.....unti... 
Can anyone help me biasing a Jadis Defy 7?
Schipo, loved your post, so funny but so true. I once had Defy 7 monoblocks, if you can imagine twice the headache. I took it a step further with output tube rolling and once reaching that, found I didn't care the sound of the amps and sold them. 
Why monoblocks?
just something to add to the list, but I found diagnosing issues, ie pops, noise, a lot easier when using monoblocks 
Windham Hill an audiophile label?
My sisters boyfriend used to own a house in Belmont CA which his parents will'd to him. He built a recording studio in the house which a few Windham Hill recordings were done. The place became so popular that he got bought out of the house he grew... 
Black-Eyed-Peas, the future of modern music?

Should I buy the Harmonix footers for $2000.00?
