Subwoofer cable for audio system
For my REL Storm high input I am using XLO Pro 600/600S Neutrik from The cable company (www.fatwyre.com).5 meters - $196. Much better then stock cable.For low input - Monster cable(don't care much). 
Does using a powered subwoofer make better sound?
I am third for REL. It brings new dimention to my Proac 1.5 
Which AV processors have an analog pass-thru?
EAD TheaterMaster 8000 and TheaterMaster 8000 Pro have analog passthroughs. 
subwoofer suggestions
For REL I would suggest to go to sumikoaudio.com and contact with them. 
Wireworld Eclipse interconnects
I would say that WireWorld Eclipse III+ among most nutreal interconnects. I had them in my HT and just recently upgraded L & R chanels to Gold Eclipse - agree with Whatjd -superb interconnect. Still have my Eclipse III+ - don't need them. 
Aftermarket REL / Neutrik Speakon Cable?
I have to agree with Sigarbrie again. XLO ($196 for 15')I got from Robert Stein (fatwyre.com) set my Storm III to one level up. Boris. 
REL Strata III vs. REL Q201E
I agree with Sugarbrie.I auditioned Strata and Storm A to B and got Storm III. It goes lower and the whole system sounds much more natural. I put it to the corner of my 12X14 room (one side is opened) and you never figure out that this great bass ... 
REL strata III vs Spendor Sub 3, which to use with S3/5?
Don't agree with Greenink. I had a chance to compare Strata III with Storm III A to B and Storm is just a step up. It sounds much deeper and more natural. I don't care what the design is. I got it, upgraded cable and PC and it sounds fantastic now... 
Best DVD/CD Player to buy
I would strongly recommend EAD Theater Vision P. Great CD and DVD player. Somebody is selling used here for $1599.For more info about DVD players check http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/volume_8_3/dvd-benchmark-progressive-shootout-2-8-2001.htmlBoris 
REL Storm III or Strata III
Some time ago I was exactly in the same situation and read the same reviews. I had a chance to compare Strata III and Storm III at dealer room with different speakers and I can say that Storm sounds much much more natural and musical. Both of them... 
What is the best DVD player? No price limit.....
My EAD TV-P is great.Also I would recommend to check this site:http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/volume_8_3/dvd-benchmark-progressive-shootout-2-8-2001.html. A lot of usefull info about DVD players.Boris. 
Good small sub.
You want "real bass" and small size? Hmm.The best sub to compliment the full range speaker definitely is REL. 
REL Sub Woofer Tweaks
I would like to get some advices from REL Storm owners.1. What is the best power cord (reasonably priced - I need a long run)?2. Did you upgrade Neutrik speakon connector and the cable? Where did you get them?3. What cable do you use for Low input... 
Two great seminars this fall
Thank you, Mario, for invitation. I will be there (not far from Basking Ridge).Boris. 
Best used 5 channels amp. for both music and movies
I agree with Telemoli and Samski that EAD PowerMaster 2000Is the best for your requirements.
