Ah Njoe Tjoeb vs Cary 308
Have not compared the two units, but the Cary 308 (non-tubed version) seems to have a neutral tending toward smooth presentation.Obviously a lot depends upon your cables preamp/amp and the speakers you are using, but I added the Cary after all oth... 
Where to use aftermarket power cords?
Certainly has made a difference for me on all equipment.You don't realize that there can be blacker backgrounds until you get it from an upgraded PC.Have one on my integrated amp (MF A300); and on my sources (Pioneer Elite DVD/CD, Cary 308).I thin... 
Is adding a power amp to an A/V receiver worth it?
Have went through the same decision making process in the last year. Am using a Denon 5.1 DTS receiver.I do 80%/20% two channel music to movies.I tried adding a separate amp for the mains (Parasound) and had a nice improvement.I then sold the amp ... 
Other "silver" spk cables.....
Using the RS Audio Cables IC's.Very nice.As advertised-smooth, detailed,neutral, transparent. 
Musical Fidelity A3.2 vs A300
Do a search for reviews.There was one pro reviewer who felt the A3.2 had a slightlymore defined sound versus the fuller A300.The different inputs on the A300 give you options, however, to suit your taste it seems. 
Cables that offer "sparkling" highs
Agree with Steuspeed, the DH Labs T14 is very transparent speakerwire with extended highs and I do not find the bass lacking in my system.I do use an ACI Titan sub. 
Any Info on RS Audio Cables Interconnects?
I should probably qualify my above initial impressions.Since I am using the MF A300 I forgot that the linestage for the CD input is actually different (more tube like or rounded according to Sam Tellig) due to an additional active input stage buil... 
Any Info on RS Audio Cables Interconnects?
Songlian-Well, they seem to be going through some final basic break in and I have about 150 hours on them so far. They seem very very smooth-almost rolled off but still retain a great amount of detail.The bass did not fill out until after the 120 ... 
Are SLR Balanced inter-conect's better than RCA 's
I don't have an answer for you on your particular gear, but this active thread at AA maybe helps you a bit.http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/cables/messages/77828.html 
Any Info on RS Audio Cables Interconnects?
Just got my MK II Interconnects today from RS Audio.Will break them in with 24x7 music through a tuner as RS states at least 100 hours before they sound like they are supposed to.Will see how they work out. Hope they are as good as folks say they ... 
FAST and NOT THIN sounding PC recommendation?
Take a look at VH Audio Power Cords.I am using one on my MF A300 integrated with great results. 
Power cord and I/C for MF A300 & Music Hall CD-25
I second the VH Audio Flavor 2 recommendation for the MF A300.Made a very good amp sound great.Here is link to my review of it in my system.http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/cables/messages/76625.html 
Electric guitar cable?
Evidence Audio.Although any cable will work, stick with someone who does pro audio. 
Any Info on RS Audio Cables Interconnects?
Thanks for the responses.I would be connecting a Pioneer Elite DVD/CD source to a Musical Fidelity A300. Using ACI Sapphire 25th Ann Editon monitors which are essentially transparent, but have some warmth.Looking for smoothness and detail while ke... 
A most neutral and transparent power cord
I am having great luck with a VH Audio (Chris Ven Haus) power cord on my Musical Fidelity A300 integrated amp.Very neutral and balanced presentation.Here is a link to my review of it.http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/cables/messages/76625.htmlIt is...
