Impressive Audiogon, Great Job!
cant search by zip, audiogon used to be my #1, its a disaster now 
Which preamp is better C50 or C2500 for MC402?
I don't think you will hear a difference between the C48 and C50. Thec2500 is whole different ballo wax. I sat on the ss/tube preamp fence for a couple of months. Went with a c2500 and am quite happy. Tube pre/ss amp pre magic 
Walking Into A Brick & Mortar High End Audio Store
I was looking for speakers to go along with my MA6600. I listened to several pairs before settling on 2 pairs at a SF mac store. I ended up buying another brand. I felt the salesperson was so good and honest I went and overpaid on a MC452 from the...

scdc555es not reading RollingStones hybrid sacd
I tried this last night before I went to bed and it worked. This morning its a different story and I can't get the player to read the SACD layer. I'll check and see if its still under warranty. 
OK, Today is Pedal Steel Guitar Day
You are prolly thinkin of Leon McAuliff of "steel guitar rag" fame. Noel Boggs, "here's herbie" Remington are among the gruop of about 600 musicians who played with BobLucky Oceans (Asleep at the Wheel)buddy Emmons(designer of the Sho-Bud steel)Ra... 
Any XTC fans?
I bought "drums" when it first came out and had the chance to see'em at "the old waldorf" in SF in support. Great show and still like "drums". I've listened to tne newer releases and I hear the talent but there's not enough edge for me. 
The black hole of component repair?
Took my JVC HT rec/player back to the GoodGuys JANUARY SIXTH and am still waiting. Ran maybe 30DVD's through it before it wouldn't read any type of disc. While I don't miss it (love my 2 channel music only rig)its driving my wife nuts 
OK time for Christmas Music
" A Prairie Christmas" by Joe Weed" Bluegrass and Whitesnow" by Patti Loveless 
When is Belles going to get the credit he deserves
just my 2 cents. I've heard his gear and I like it . I sent an email also with no reponse. I tried calling several times over a 2 week period at different hours and all I got was a busy signal. Maybe he was on vacation or Larry was hogging the lin... 
Upgrades for my system - I have Martin Logan Aeon,
I sort of just went through the same process. The hafler pre has good response ,just no soundstage . I'd get a new preamp, I got a PCA-2(to replace a hafler 110) and I love it. You will have to upgrade the cdp at some point. While you at it get so... 
Soliloquy 5.3 vs. 6.2 vs. 6.3
Crazy I have the 6.3's and they are fantastic,you'll see a lot deeper bottom end. Imaging I think is about the same. My room is the same size as yours but doesn't look as lively. If you were in the SF bay area I'd say bring your electronics over a... 
Do You Remember Your First Music Purchase?
Between the Buttons by the RollingStones. Still have it ,dont remember if its stereo or mono. I do know that I have all the early stones in mono and I duped some in stereo(high tides,aftermath,decembers children) 
What is the worst recorded CD you have?
DaveClark5 "a history of of the DC5". Remastered by the man who ownes the dc5 masters Dave Clark. Deaf in one ear I believe(judging from the cd,more like both ears)he thinks he can hear better than any engineer.My 37 year old lp's that I used to l... 
How many here heard the "Wall of Sound" Dead 70's
I saw/heard the "wall of sound" at the Hollywood Bowl.I remember the moat was covered up with this huge ass colum of speakers. I don't recall the year exactly but I do recall it was the best sound system I ever heard untill the stones "voodoo loun...
