What cables are you using for a hidden in wall clean look? I have B&W 802 D3s coming.
What is your first must-have journey to OZ : fine 2-channel music or multi-channel HT ? If you are settled on in-wall speaker cables, they had better be specifically warranted as fire-rated and explicitly described as such. Otherwise you will most... 
Marantz SA 8005 break in
Break-in time is a custom ill-defined non-standard variable. My REGA ISIS Valve cdp took over 350-400+ hours (lost count) in a continuing non-linear series of performance changes and intermittent plateaus before I could finally say it was as smoot...
