If Bi-Wiring is an option, should I choose Bi-wiring over single banana with free jumpers
My experience has been to use a higher quality single run of speaker cables with the same make for jumpers. Factor in the cost of the jumpers when choosing a line of speaker cables and you'll be fine.  All the best, Nonoise  
WHICH POWER CONDITIONER IS BETTER PASSIVE OR ACTIVE WITH ISOLATION TRANSFORMERS
@carlsbad2 It's strange but I've read that and finally experienced it. Before the Marantz, I had a Kinki integrated that sounded the same no matter the configuration but the Marantz just couldn't cut it on it's own.  All the best, Nonoise  
WHICH POWER CONDITIONER IS BETTER PASSIVE OR ACTIVE WITH ISOLATION TRANSFORMERS
I'm glad this came up. I've always been in the camp that passive conditioning is the way to go, just filtering out the noise on the line. Every time I got new equipment, it always sounded better on my Niagara 1200 passive conditioner so when I got... 
Trojan Warning?
@larsman - I hope they don't defund those detectors like they have been doing for others. I like to stay virus free.  
Trojan Warning?
Just out of curiosity, was the warning not to use it more than once?  
Trojan Warning?
Nothing amiss here on my side except that I now noticed that Malwarebytes no longer shows up on my toolbar. For the longest time they've been trying to get me to purchase their Premium version, which I won't. I can only now access it when searchin... 
Movie/film suggestions.
@immatthewj Agreed. Along with Snatch, Brad Pitt shows just how good an actor he can be given the right role. He was really good in Killing Them Softly (as a hitman sent to clean things up). All the best, Nonoise

@immatthewj Actually, I like Jeff Bridges as an actor. From Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, to Against All Odds and on to the present. He was also in that one movie I listed, Bad Times at the El Royale, as a criminal, posing as a priest but having spen...

@thecarpathian Most certainly! I'd hate to go the way of Aristide de Torchia, being burnt alive for what he saw and wrote.  @immatthewj Since you listed two political movies, one I'd recommend is The Contender, starring Joan Allen (who should hav...

@immatthewj The whole cast was great in Zodiac, almost as if they went against type. Fincher can bring out the best in an actor. I thought John Carrol Lynch as Arthur Leigh Allen was fantastic. He such an underused actor.  @thecarpathian  I hope ...

Are Headphones Fit for Serious Music Listening?
I'm not a big fan of headphones and have a pair sitting on the shelf for last 10+ years. About a month ago I took a flyer on a pair of Fiio FT1 Pro headphones (planar magnetic) for $200. They're open back and really kinda nice.  Nothing special b...
