Richard Hardesty’s Audio Perfectionist Journal was something that was promising: it had no advertising or agenda and was solely based on the view one individual person. Agree or degree I with Richard’s view but it was his view and I do love high-atti...

I think you will only be able to decide about this after listening to some operas or other video-audio through the big system. The analog output of the video player may be good enough for the purpose, or it may sound terrible through the Milqs/Macon...

I kind of disagree with Adrian. The wire, the coupling caps, the cathode resistors and many other things are superbly important but it is after the strategic topology is settled. In my view caps, resistor, wire and other things are responsible for th...
