Everything Does Seem To Matter
Man, most of you guys are way ahead of me on this stuff, but from what I've heard and experienced, this stuff matters. I really DO think you might be able to tune/tailor a system via cables, fuses, and treatments.  
Fuses
Just pre-ordered a SR Purple for my Classe pre-amp.Very much looking forward to hearing the difference between the currently installed Orange and the new Purple.I will for sure post my findings (the purple doesn’t ship until the 22nd). 
Everything Does Seem To Matter
@ozzy,Yeah, everything matters.Better connections. Better materials. Better cables. It all matters. Even if it is a small improvement, you make enough small improvements and all of a sudden you have a large improvement. What it’s worth to you mone... 
Fuses
Try an upgraded/audiophile fuse.Most come with a money-back guarantee.Go into it with an open mind.Grab a beer, have a seat and enjoy your stay on the dark side. 
Sibilance
+1.That album has been remastered so many times it's almost impossible to know what version you are getting....That being said, I just listened to "Time" on CD and via streaming (Amazon), and neither version I heard had any sibilance in it.I'd say... 
LED dimmable lights in audio room?
OK.Thanks. Sounds like it won't be an issue, and if it is, I'll figure something out, or just put them on a regular lightswitch.

Mine too, @oregonpapa .Didn't know if the new LED dimmable lights (and dimmers) still had that problem or not. :(They'd be on a separate circuit. I don't know any audiophile electricians, unfortunately.Hopefully someone has done this and has some ... 
Sub woofera and Pet torture
This thread can't be for real......can it? 
Putting an end to the audio cable debate! Part 1
"Marketing is everything!"I disagree. You have to make a product that actually works, or you're going to go out of business pretty quickly.Marketing certainly brings awareness to your name, though, so it no doubt increases sales. 
Kevin's Tannoy priced as a Single speaker??
Certainly not something I would spend time worrying about.But that's just me, I guess. 
price of WireWord ECLIPSE III DISCRETE BIWIRE
That's a pretty big ask from a private seller.I agree with @jackd , if you think you want them and the price is right, buy them and give them a shot.You might love them.But if you don't like them, put them back up for sale. 
price of WireWord ECLIPSE III DISCRETE BIWIRE
I guess my first question would be:Why do you assume it would be a big improvement? You like what you like. An improvement? Probably. A "Big" improvement......maybe.My second question is:They don’t make that version of those cables anymore. I beli... 
How important is the pre-amp?
I'd say the impact of the pre-amp is "Huge" in your system.Probably second only to your speakers.
