Why Are There So Many Audio Research Reference 5SE's For Sale
I decided to buy a dealers demo REF5se and couldn't be happier with it. I had intended to buy an LS27 or a Modwright 36.5 but decided this would put me in a better place.So yes; I am in a better place. 
test
I didn't study, will there be a make up test later. 
From ARC LS26 to where...
Thanks on the Modwright, I do intend to demo the 36.5 and knowing that the power supply can be added influences more investigation. 
Your not a serious audiophile I'd you have??????
....if you think your system is finally complete, and you will never have to buy another item.Zmanastronomy, gotta give you my vote!  
From ARC LS26 to where...
Thank you for responding  dodgealum, as mentioned I want to audition the Modwright, but I think in the end I may wind up staying ARC, I know the LS27 is reaching its production run and would be curious to see what the replacement offers. But again... 
Mcintosh mx136 vs Mcintosh Mx150
No argument here. But it seems the gap is narrowing. 
Mcintosh mx136 vs Mcintosh Mx150

VPI 16.5 Low Suction
 A little more information would be helpful. Does the vacuum seem to laboring indicated by a louder than usual noise? If you place your hand over the tube port with the vacuum on, is there much suction and does it change in sound as you plug the p... 
Velodyne sub with loose allen bolts?
I have a DD12 and periodically snug the fasteners as well as my speakers. I think anything that vibrates in the course of operation will eventually "loosen" and need occasional re-tightening.  
"Cracked Rear View"
A little off topic, but I think John Hiatt offers great and thought provoking lyrics. But one of my favorite lines is "I always though my house haunted, 'cause nobody said boo to me" . Not verbatim but I do love his music. 
Now Keith Emerson is gone...
What a talented musician he was, I have been a fan for years and had a tremendous appreciation for his music. It seems like we are losing the greats to often here lately. If anything, I am feeling older.I hope his family has plenty of support at t... 
Lyra Etna Versus Kleos
I had a Delos for a short while and upgraded to the Kleos and love it. However the system you describe would be a perfect fit for the Etna, if you have the means, and if your asking I presume you do. I have heard the Etna on a few different tables... 
ENTIRE SYSTEM NEEDED TO SELL
Thanks jmcgrogan
