Sonus faber Musica,and Guarneri
I agree with Kazu. Absolutely keep them equal lengths. The question of what speaker cable to use arises. It would be nice to have a shorter run but since you need 20 feet you need some decent cable for such a nice and truly sweet sound. I would lo... 
The Best Audio Dealer
Without a doubt Steve at Ensemble in West Bloomfield (Detroit) Michigan. No acting as if you are dirt or that he knows everything or you really can't hear. he doesn't presure you, is warm and hospitable. Great line up of gear and he doesn't try to...

DVD Player of choice for $200-300 range.

MC-1/Cinepro/B&W - Cable Recommendations
Dear Jeraza, I presume you aren't asking about interconnect and speaker cable which costs thousands per met. If you want a inexpensive upgrade but one that will make a real difference try Kimber. Specifically I would use the PBJ for the analog int... 
Demise of "Audio" magazine
The thing that really gripes me is that their new look and change in emphasis was giving us more reviews by people one could have some level of trust in, no longer those who had never reviewed a poorly designed ____ (name any piece of equipment). ...
