$250 used speaker cables for warm system
If the system is warm, try Analysis Plus Oval 9. I saw a pair for sale here for about $200 and were 10'. Check out my system for comparison to yours; I really like my set.Matt 
PC to DAC to PreAmp
Slhijb:Yes, your current plan is the best way to get all you can from the MP3s provided your sound card has a digital output. Some sound cards that have a digital output only have it in mini plug form, and not sure what digital cable would go from... 
Anyone with kids should see this... Just say NO
I have a dog who never goes near my system...when we play ball, and the ball rolls behind a speaker, Toby looks to me to go get it. I never did anything to teach him this. I think he just sense my anxiety level sky rocketing and knows. Too bad Tob... 
Anybody hear of Jack Johnson?
Dammit Z...now I am really put off. I went to best Buy last night just to get this cd and they didn't have it. They had 10000 copies of Brushfire Fairey Tales; I hate living in the ass end of the universe. Now I have to buy it online and wait for ... 
What song says something about you?
Long live Jimi. 
What song says something about you?
David Gray "Living Room"Then again, most of David's music has some meaning for me...not to mention my respect as being one of the most talented musicians ever. Happy belated b-day Gar, hope my system is 'essentially complete' before I turn 60; I g...

Anybody hear of Jack Johnson?
I've found some of his new stuff on the net and it is as good as his first cd. He's got real style. 
A pair of "warm sounding"6922 tub
Jax:Sorry i can't give any more info. I am a bit of a newbie when it comes to tubes. All I know is what I've heard, what I've read and what I like. As far as I know Amprex could be made by pixies in a magical forest, then Amprex slaps their name o... 
A pair of "warm sounding"6922 tub
I like the Siemens (used CCAs, Falcons), but agree they don't have the warmth of the Telefunkens; I like both, but for different reasons and for different music. I also like the Amprex 7308s, but also feel they aren't as warm as Telefunken. RCA ma... 
Any hi-end Aussie speakers or electronics?
Hey, one more important saftey tip...when you see this thing flying at you that has a wing span the size of a VW Bug, and looks very much like a Teradactyl, don't be alarmed. Its just a harmless fruit bat. Dam, I miss Oz; cool place to live. 
Any hi-end Aussie speakers or electronics?
Definitly need to hear Halcro gear...http://www.halcro.com/Also Whautmough (spelling??) speakers I saw advertised here were suppose to be good. Also stop in at the Hogs Breath and have some prime rib. Don't swim at night, and if feels like a spide... 
Something wrong with the Studio 100 v.2?
Funny...I like the 9s better than the 11s 7 years ago when I first bought Paradigm. Prefer the better mids now a days with the 100s and a hybrid amp and tube pre. 
Something wrong with the Studio 100 v.2?
Horn...you should also demo Monitor Audio speakers. I have heard very good things about them. Pretty wide price range as well.http://www.monitoraudio.com/ 
Better 2 channel Pre or processor?
I went from a lexicon pre/pro to a sonic frontiers pre and really liked the change. go for a new pre, and get one with ht pass through so you can integrate your ht and 2 channel listening. a tube pre might be a good idea, as i've HEARD bat ss amps...
