Speakers for Cary 300sei
Hi, I use Lowther drivers in Mauhorn 4 cabinets with Cary 300SE monoblocks. This combo works very well. Only problem the mauhorns are very large & ugly. If you want smaller speakers you can look at Omega Speakers.  
BAT VK-31SE vs Mac C2200
I was considering the C2200 sometime ago (never heard it in my sys.though) but then got a Supratek Chardonnay pre to partner a MC352. Very Nice combination!

LINN Majik vs Classik vs Wakonda vs Kairn
I recently got a Majik & was pleasntly suprised at the quality. The amp section drove my 87db speakers to quite decent volume levels. I have seen the speakers drawing close to 300Watts on peaks with my ealrlier Mac MC352. The Majik played almo...

McIntosh MC252 vs. MC352
Theo, hang-on to your 352. I miss my "blue eyes 352" I let go. Looking to buy a 202 or 252 someday as secondary amp "for life". Although my preference is 300B SET sound now need a Mac in the corner to feel good!!!

Recommendation for a new cd player??
Hi, Just a thought. Don't laugh without trying first. This is something which made me take note & even laugh at myself. Plenty of talk on this if you care to google. Try a Toshiba DVD SD-3990. Costs only $50 to try! Cheers. 
Krell 400xi vs. BAT VK-300x vs. McIntosh MA6900
I have owned the MA6900 previously & have had the 400Xi as well for sometime. 400Xi is not bad at all. But for MY tastes it would be the Mac.If you like the Krell the Sugden suggested above is also a good cheaper choice. However in the long ru... 
Speakers with Cary 300 SEI
I urge you to listen/read, to fullrange, single driver, crossover-less speakers. This is where the "Magic" happenes with the 300B, zero-feedback SET designs. Since you are looking for monitors you can take a look at Omega speakers. They are very e... 
Best Budget Silver/Silver-Blend Interconnects?
Was on this road few months back. Ended up with GROVER ULTIMATE REFERENCE cables. $150 for 1m. I really like them. No personal experience but some compare it to $1000 range cables. You can read more on head-fi or if you google. Good luck! 
Preamp Deal of the Century
Ikkyu, See my post dated 31-May-06 & Amadarae post dtd. 14-May-06. For very little money you can have a significant improvement with the Sovetek KT66 tubes. These are the same tubes Mike sent as stock for the Six Moons review. 
Power Cord suggestions
Signalcable Magic power Digital. I am quite happy with this on my CDP.
