As a chill electronica listener, should I stop at a Med-Fi system?
@all I feel as if i will have to re-do my system and start with a sensitive speaker, like Omega Super Alnico. Then i can get used to hearing more detail, and increase components along the way (DAC, cables, etc) to get even more detail.  I'm curr...

@gosta , can you share more details about your system?  Source, Streamer, DAC Preamplifier, Power Amplifier, cables? Sounds like you've got a great setup.  
adding Rack Handles onto ATX Computer Tower or buy purpose-built rack PC case?
Thanks for the tips all, If I do go for this idea, then i'll give the shelf idea a try, and if the other equipment is picking up computer noise...I'll place the tower on the floor beside the rack.

Chinese Cables that sound good
For my next cables I want to go with non-soldered connections (screw, crimped, or "welded" like how Blue Jeans Cables does their RCA's, and also go with OCC copper, but I just don't trust aliexpress dealer claims about the quality of their copper.... 
OCC cables anyone?
@oldhvymec, can you suggest some good screw-in RCA and XLR connectors to me?  or some other non-soldering methods to attach wires to the connectors?  I'm going to embark on a DIY cable adventure in the next month or two and am still in the plannin...

@grannyring , how would you compare a set of well-made DIY Helix Air RCA interconnects, to either the HIJIRI or Zavfino?  
Duelund conversion to DIY Helix Geometry Cabling
Will I be able to use the Helix speakers cables with a Yamaha PC2002 power amplifier?  It has balanced inputs but i don't know if its a fully balanced design.
