No idea what you are saying. Maybe take on knitting? Instead of this hobby.   P.s. I noticed you have Tekton and McIntosh. That explains it. Carry on  
Power conditioner wire gauge? Serious issue

@raysmtb1 : how long is the fuse? Do the math. Inches or millimeters. Resistance, capacitance, inductance. Basic stuff. I am not trying to be a smart ass here. Just common misconception all you cable deniers / haters have

Audiophile sound quality from a more "mainstream" company?
