KCI Pure Gold and the benefits
Won a pair of Silkworms a fewweeks back on auction, and while nice sounding "right out of the box" they have really come into their own. Agree with Eldulcesol's description above of the high's, mid's and bass. A great cable. Also, without digressi... 
Differences in electric outlets
Another question if I may, I see that some of these are cryo'd and others not- any real audible benefits from cryo-ing outlets?

Speakers that mate well with Plinius 9200
I also have an 8200 and drive Tyler Linbrook System 2s with it. For me that are a very good match, enjoyable musically and none fatiquing. A little out of the range you want to spend, but Ty offers quality 'used' speakers. I both the Linbrooks and...
