Bob, Et Al,
Just a note: I had one switching supply that radiated from the box
(lots of nice birdies spaced about 100K IIRC)... I can't imagine any
grounding that would have prevented that... {'-)

I've been using a pair of Auratone 5Cs for years.
I'd switch to something else if they had the "YC" stamp of approval.

They are so effective at RFI suppression you can use any old cheap

without worries.
I'd suspect they will also help with the new peak current demands of the
eagerly anticipated

Ah, but Don, have you cryogenically treated those wires in liquid Nitrogen
so the electrons flow more smoothly along the copper as some Audiophile
sites recommend?
I even saw one ad for cryogenically-treated power cords that would deliver a
smoother flow of mains power into the amp and so not "tu

Yes, it is all about Ohm's law, but there *are* some advantages to the

satisfying the Ohm's law requirement even with higher power amplifiers;

I had an engineer working for me (we're both retired and see each other for
lunch once a month) who was also a musician.
He swore that he could hear the difference between different kinds of speaker
wire. I had him read Bob Pease's article on this.

True, true.
My Vandersteen speakers that I use for my home theater listening must be
placed more than 2 feet from the wall, and are mounted on 3 point floor
stands. I did not ask a decorator, I asked my audio experts - the
decoration is secondary to the acoustical performance. One must make

I strongly agree, but theoretically a speaker with an intentionally limited

of headphones if you really want good sound when it
comes to SSB. I'm sorry, but I'm just trying to be practical here... I wish

Nope. The problem with cheap speakers is NOT limited frequency response,
it is BUMPY frequency response, which

I beg to differ, Any radio will show its true audio traits if it is

The best sound I get from my K3 is when I connect it to the input of my
