Rob and Aditya, after going to one of Ivan's Extravaganzas at his house on the Cape, I still can't get his setups out of my mind. Listening to his Aida system was mind boggling. Rob, I think you will hear substantial improvements with the Stillpoints under your amps and components. I know I did after Ivan set me up with a bunch of them.

Sounds like a great time....if it's at Ivan's place I have no doubt it was off the charts amazing.
Although I've seen pictures of Ivan's cable access room in the past, this one may be the best one yet. And of course it is an up to date photo. All I can say is.....Good Heavens!

I can attest that Ivan and his family are great hosts.
And we can all learn from his skills and experience. A visit to Cape Cod is warmly recommended!
