Thanks for the info! I have acoustic zen absolute speaker cable. I have tested transparent super. kimber kable select ks 6063 showed little improvement but cardas clear is a lot better. I have yet to test other brands.

Thanks for the inputs. Right now I'm fortunate to be auditioning kimber kable select 6063 in my system. Hope I can do the same for other brands. 
Focal Scala or Diablos with subs?
neuphonix - my comment might be too late, but just the same I'll share with you my experience. We have the same size of room and with it are focal scala speakers and pass labs xa 100.5 power amps. The latest addition to my audio equipment is the m... 
KEF 205/2 with Pass XA series amps??
Pass labs xa 100.5 amps are driving my kef 203/2 in a small room about 200 sq ft. I believe it's perfectly matched, it sounds better than other audio equipment I have heard in a showroom. Soundstage is wide and deep, perfect for classical music, g... 
Kef Blade or Wilson Audio Alexia?
@Ejlif - thanks for your input. Having bigger speakers in a small room is my major drawback. I should be contended w/ kef 203/2 . . . for the meantime. 
Kef Blade or Wilson Audio Alexia?
@Rpeluso, I now have kef speakers (203/2 and LS50). I am thinking of upgrading my speakers, top on the list is kef blade or WA alexia. I have auditioned the blade but not yet the other one. I purchased some components of my audio system based on w...

What is the best loudspeaker for a small room?
Dayglow:) I agree that kef 203/2 is a good speaker, considering the size of my room and perfect for my electronics. The acoustic treatment is of high level if not perfect. I have also compared kef with other expensive speakers in Hong Kong audio s... 
What is the best loudspeaker for a small room?
I'm glad to know that my room is not that small. Smaller ones can manage to have bigger floorstanders. I forgot to mention that I'm using kef reference 203/2. After awhile, you're thinking of upgrading your set-up but in fairness the kef sounds gr... 
What is the best loudspeaker for a small room?
I didn't know I have lots of choices. Brands and models I'm not familiar with . . . but that will be a good start. I guess I have enough time to look for the technical specs and compare them. Process of elimination will begin once I have the price... 
What is the best power cord for pass labs xa100.5?
The original pc's work well, for now. I have read other set-up that transparent premium power link is a good combination with pass amps. I then look at the technical specs of transparent and it seems I will gain substantial improvement. Maybe in t... 
Any bad experience with wilson audio sasha w/p?
I got good feedbacks, that's why it's worth posting in audiogon. I tried listening to sasha in Hongkong audio show recently but people come and go, so it was hard for me to appreciate the clarity of sasha. Last night, I had the chance to listen to... 
What is the best power cord for pass labs xa100.5?
I tend to believe that pass amps don't need expensive cords. I'm good with the original (for now). Based on other reviews, another good cord that matches pass labs is the transparent premium power link which is only $500 a piece. I agree with Byro...

Thanks a lot! Now I have too many options. For the meantime, I will stay with the original cord. Hope I get lucky to do actual testing of other brands on my system.
