NEW Power Treatment Technique
WOW! I'll bet you were using those new cordless extension cords. Nobody was supposed to know about those things for another month or so but there's no holding back this group. 
I need a bright detailed 300 used speaker cable
JPS Labs w/rhodium spades will brighten it up. 
Looking for warmth,openess, detail
Luminous Audio has a killer set of copper speaker cables called Renaissance. I bought those & two Synchestra Signature IC's & my system has never sounded better. You wouldn't believe the amount of detail for a copper cable in addition to a... 
Opinions needed; which is a better choice and why?
You will get as many different suggestions as there are replies & I suggest you make a decision based on what you hear. You need to audition as many different combinations as possible. With that said, then decide if you plan on upgrading in th... 
shipping speakers
Also try some moving companies. If they have a truck going your way you can get a pretty good discount & most all of the moving co. vans are air ride to protect the contents. They are also very good about making crates to protect valuble items... 
Audiogon Ethics
In the past year I've gone through a lot of equipment in my pursuit of finding a particular component that I'm happy with. A lot of the items I bought I simply turned right around & sold when I determined they were simply not what I was lookin... 
money AND time. How do I get both?

What Sugarbrie said. I have a pre amp (Pass) with the same setup. No power switch. My amp also has a standby switch so all I do is use that & my system is ready to go.I also don't use a conditioner but suggest you try plugging the preamp direc... 
Safe audiogon transactions; lowering the bar.
Good points Will. I never thought of COD as a vehicle to provide quicker shipping & better packing. I'm always open to another way to approach something, be it use COD or switch from the SS camp to tubes. Open to but not ready to jump ship, I ... 
Safe audiogon transactions; lowering the bar.
Swampwalker nailed it. About COD-I never use it & if the other party insisted on it that would be a red flag to me. The transaction should be a compromise & communication is the key. Phone calls are good. One of the tools you should use wi...

IC upgrade suggestions - 300 budget
Creeper, I'm using the Absolute IC's. Not only do they provide great detail but also tightened up the bass & gave a bigger soundstage. I was impressed with them out of the box which is unusual & now that they've settled in are just amazing.
