Speaker Cable choice, Cardas, AQ, JPS or SR?
If you like the Cardas sound then look for a pair of the Golden Hexlink 5-Cs they are real good and cheap. They will fix the mid range you are experiencing now.Happy Listening. 
what CD player between 1-2K
Keep your CDP and buy a good DAC. Electrocompaniet, Audio Logic or Chord 64 but make sure you get a really good digital cable. These DACs will compete or beat any single unit in this price range although the Audio Aero Prima would be my choice for... 
Pass X-250 and Tube Preamp
I posted on this a year or so ago. I owned the X-250 for a few years and compared a bunch of tube preamps to the X-1 preamp. Lamm LL2, Blue Circle B-3 MKII, ARC LS-25 MKII, Counterpoint SA-5000, Joule LA-150, BAT VK-30SE, and a few more that I can...

Please Help with DAC...
It all depends on the DAC. Better or differnt what you will hear. Again, you will need a good digital cable ($150 for say an Audience or Acoustic Zen MC-2 used) and these are good cables for the money. Better cables cost more! IMO the digital cabl... 
Interconnect test
Acoustic Zen Sil Ref ICs have a very balanced high, low & mid frequencies, the Audeince will have a sweeter mid but the AZ will offer better frequency extremes in my experience. Both are excellent ICs.Happy Listening.

I need some help guys. I purchased a GE bulb, 100 watts mono version, white powder coated with silver coated base. It has worked flawlessly for about one week. Now when I turn on the power from my Krell light stand, model KSA-1000, the bulb now bl... 
How many audiophiles to screw in a light bulb?
You guys have it all wrong, a simple silver coating will enhance the output of a el cheapo light bulb that competes for one tenth the cost of all of the above higher priced models and make things so bright! Special applicator provided of course an...

Digital or RCA?
That depends on my Audio Logic DAC the RCA inputs are more emotional sounding versus the balanced inputs which are more detailed a clearer sounding but I prefer the RCA to the balanced inputs. others will say the opposite here.Happy Listening. 
Alon/Nola drivers
The price of replacement speakers are very expensive from Nola. You can try Madisound and he probably can find excellent drivers that will work close to the custom ones.Happy Listening.
