Subwoofer recommendation for Maggie 1.6 QR
A pair of Vandersteen 2Wq subs. I currently use this with my MG 3.6R. If space is an issue, you may also consider the Definitive Tech Super Cube. I have heard this sub with the 1.6. Very close to the performance of the Vandersteen. Have fun experi...

New RPTV power cord?
Tsart - I am using the 1200S 
WEB Ordering of Large RPTV's
I bought a Toshiba 40" RPTV from www.onecall.com about 1.5" years ago. TV was transported from WA to FL by freight truck. Item was delivered in excellent condition. Just my 2 cents. 
New RPTV power cord?
Haven't tried that. I just plugged the TV into a RGPC. Night/Day results. 
HDTV antenna
The model is: TERK TV55. I use it here in Fort Lauderdale and get CBS, ABC, PBS, WB.DL 
Replacing Tweeter in JMLab Cobalt 806
Wouldn't it be easier to upgrade to the entry level Electra 906 or the new Cobalt 806S? 
Where does your user name come from?

Best Concert DVD
For smooth Jazz fans, I recommend Casino Lights '99: Montreux Jazz Festival. It features music by Four Play, Boney James, Rick Braun, and several others. It is also recorded in DTS 5.1, DD 5.1, and PCM Stereo. A great way to compare the formats. 
Someone please do me a favor

Maggie 3.6 amplification concern
As an owner of the MG 3.6R, I will throw my 2cents in. I currently use a McCormack DNA .5 Rev A (200 watts @ 4 ohms) to drive mine. I also have a pair of Vandersteen 2Wq subwoofers to handle the bass below 50hz. My dealer was out last week fine tu... 
Is it too mismatched to pair Maggie 1.6 & NAD 370?
I have not heard the NAD 370 but based on its power rating it should be fine. Before getting my current 3.6R, I had the 1.6. I still use a McCormack DNA .5 (200 watts @ 4 OHMS) with no problems. I also have a McCormack Micro Power Drive (100 watts... 
Modified McCormack DNA 0.5 vs. DNA 125

Side Surround Speaker Cable Advise Please?
I am presently using a 50' of Straightwire Quartet cable for my surround channels. Purchased them new from www.fatwyre.com for $320. 
Is Harman Kardon Signature amps/pre-amps that bad?
I recently auditioned a HK Signature 2.0 for a week. The sound was thin and flat. Its retail price point is way too high to compete with the products in that range. If you need a decent pre/pro under $1000, go with a B&K Ref 10 or 20.
