Diagonal Connection With Two Pairs Of Binding Posts
@ryder Look at the Nordost link earlier in this thread. On the second page, the third illustration shows the diagonal connection. The Audioquest article was a little clearer, but that link doesn't seem to be working.   
Samsung flat screen TV’s

After I posted this I went over to HUG and looked at some of the comments. I know they have their biases (all amplifiers sound basically the same, exotic speaker wire is a waste of money, etc.). Alan Shaw says that since the SHL5 series has always...

Need recommendations for 20' speaker cable
I think you will have a hard time finding used 20' cables. I would recommend the Analysis Plus Oval 9. I have the Oval 12's and they are excellent cables.http://www.audiowaveshifi.com/analysisplus.htm 
streaming devices, which would you buy?

@bdp24 I lived in the Bay Area about the same time you did. My first concert was the Beach Boys at the Cow Palace "63, I think. I was at the Kinks concert, it was Winterland.
