Has anyone added a small subwoofer to 2 channel and been thrilled with the result?
I added an 8 inch powered sub to my ADS 300s and it is wonderfulThe ADS are good down to 100hz and the sub adds exactly what's missing. The 300s Mids and Highs are Hard to beat at any price range.

I have found the best product for cleaning is called "Last"Do not know if it is still made.I simply use a little warm water on a lint free Clothe. 
DO CABLES REALLY MATTER?
When choosing cables. Where would one go and how would you compare one to another? How big of a difference in sound is there from Hundred dollar cables to ten Grand in cables?Is there that huge of a difference? 
Who said “ flat freq response “ is the best?
Handyman has it right check out The Fletcher Munson Equal Loudness article.This is one reason you see a "loudness" switch or adjustment on some gear.Frequency response changes with volume.
