Just to be clear they wanted $350 + the price of the card which is $750, so my total was goning to be $1,100 bucks. That seems alot if it is just indeed a plug and play application.

I tried synergistic research, other PAD lineups from the lower ended line - Menustas I do believe and the one right above it. Can't rember which SR it was, but it came with different bullets you interchange to adjust sound and a wall plug to energ...

Purist Audio Design - Dominus Interconnect Cable
I've got the PAD Venustas speaker cables. I never thought in a thousand years I'd pay north of $2700 bucks for cables. But after auditioning them, and many others, from the cable company I could not deny the level of quality or ability that came w...
