Rel Subwoofers
I have owned 3 Rel Strata III's, yet never had the chance to try out the spikes as I have oak floors troughout the entire house. It would spell disaster with a down firing sub on Tile, or Hardwoods. If you have carpet give it a shot? I doubt that ... 
Will the Big Ben improve the 24 MXL?

Will the Big Ben improve the 24 MXL?
I wouldn't waste my money, & keep Big Ben away from Big Jerry's Dac. I like to play too, & feel like a Audio Pimp in training lately as I took a Sonic Frontiers Jitterbug in trade not too long ago. It actually degraded the sound of the AL ...

recommendation for inexpensive CDP
I sold my Sony CDP-XA20ES not too long ago, it was a mistake the player was that good for the $300.00 range! It was variable out, with volume control on the remote. 
Biggest "Bang for the Buck" in an AES/EBU cable
The Best Biggest "Bang for the Buck" I have ever heard is the Stealth Varidig. It is also the AES/EBU cable that made the Buck Stop Here, & just enjoy the music. You could spend a lot more, & get a LOT LESS! Good Luck, as A/B'ing Digital C...
