cable length
Pops & Bloom are right, speaker cable 6ft shortest length or you will have no resale value, I doubt you can hear the differnece between 6ft or 3ft speaker cables anyway.Power cords go with 2 meter or 5-6 ft length, same reasonfor resale value ... 
Innertube Cone Tweak
Abstact, I am a big fan of Aurios MIB and RollerBlocks, how do you prevent your marble/bearing supported device fromrolling off the rack? Have you tried both steel bearings and glass marbles and what is the difference? 
Madonna s Music.
I don't care for "music" but thought the previous album "ray of Light" her best since debut. The song "frozen"and "ray of light" are outstanding and the videos are some of the best ever made. Also the video for "music" is dissappointing. 
MIT bashed, not Transparent, why?
I own several MIT cables, and think they are very musical.On a related theme I also noitce that it is acceptable to use Bybee speaker & IC filters, but MIT network cables areridiculed.....seems like a double standard. 
Upgrading and Integrating
The MF A300 integrated is much more detailed and transparant than the Jolida unit, sounds like a good move. I would not use an Onkyo as a preamp for A3CR amp, you would be wasting a good amp. If you want to get closer to"audio nirvana" your next s...

Which MIT speaker cable?
Jeff, you may want to try MIT speakers cables, but I wouldfirst try MIT 330+ ICs which Audio Advisor has for $150. These will do what you are looking for, and would be cheaper and more effective even than MIT speaker cables.If you like the effect ... 
New Age, Neo-Celtic, World Beat Music
Delerium: Semantic Spaces, Karma, PoemDead Can Dance: Passage In Time, any album preceding this.I also have many Loreena McKinnet, Enigma, and Enya Cds. Thegood thing is besides good music these are almost always excellent recording quality. 
Perpetual P-3A vs Bel Canto DAC-1 vs MSB
If you listen to a lot of average rock/alt recordings go with a new Bel canto dac 1.1, slow roll-off filter really makes many poor recordings sound their best possible. If you listen to mainly audiophile type recordings get a P3A with monolithic p... 
Perpetual P-3A vs Bel Canto DAC-1 vs MSB
Kitty, your question is way too general. What is your existing system? What type of sound are you trying to acheive? What is your price range? Each one is different, please refine your question so you can get a useful response. 
Burn In = Voodoo?
We have had many posts on this subject, there no doubt is improvement in cables and components after several days of break-in, in my experience. Another factor which is hard to measure is your hearing adjusting to the different sound of the new it... 
Shelf Material - Neuance
Red, for the 19x14 "svelte shelf" they list the weight as 7#, they have thicker heavier models also. Surface is brushed stainless top and bottom with various layers/densities of foam between. www.symposiumusa.com/svelte.html 
Ethics of last minute auction "poaching"
My contention is that people who "snipe" are attempting to win an auction by hoping they can sneak in a last second bid and other buyers don't have time to react or make another bid. It is a inherently deceptive, sneaky, misleading, but not illega... 
Bedini II.....Again
Jade, your evaluation technique is smart. I also compare anytweak with with duplicate CD copies over several day peroid.Only real way to tell what has been changed.Perfect, Bedini II is small box 6x6x3 that rapidly spins a CD over magnetic field (... 
Bi-wiring speakers
There are many sites that will technically expalin bi-wiringand the way their crossover design is different than singlewire crossover, and how that effects the sound......go to google.com and search bi-wire design speakers.The valid argument is do...
