AQ vs Signal Cable vs BlueJeans vs MonoPrice
I only have experience with Signal Cable and have been very happy with them. The Classic cables will suit your budget. 
speakers for a small room
OP/Sebrof,I am in the process of setting up my room very similar to you guys (13.5 X 12.5 X 9). What did you do different, so that the music quality is not sacrificed in this squarish room? I am thinking of treating the room with GIK Acoustic pane... 
New Tweek - Has anyone ever tried this?
Hilarious posts, OP and Sebrof :-) 
My first encounter with K2 Mastering
Thanks for sharing your experience. I hesitate to buy some K2 discs, since the costs are too high. But I heard similar experience from couple of other people and will soon try a disc on my own. 
First Rebecca Pidgeon Album?
The Raven. 
Why CD players will never be dead
Rar1,You are not the only one about the server. I am in the same boat. Though I can play with computer registry and stuff like that, I love to spin the good old CD. Future might force us to take up a server, but for now we are good :-) 
Shunyata CX Python Speaker Cables
I checked Shunyata's as well as MusicDirect site, but could not find a answer to this: Do these come with bi-wire option? The Black Mamba seems interesting...if it is all the "giant killer" as some people say they are. 
Totem speakers and others that I should consider?
I you like the Totems, then you will surely love the Quad line of dynamic speakers. 
I just started listening to my CD player again
Signal Cable's power cables have worked very well for me.http://www.signalcable.com/power_cables.htmlBTW, why did you quit listening to your CD player? What was your source after that? What made you come back to the CDP? 
New amp recommendations
I think a Parasound A21 will work great for you. It will save you $$$ for more music and other accessories. 
French Doors
Lars,I will be getting the french-doors installed in the next week. Frankly I do not know how it will work out, since this room is kind of small (13 X 12). I envy all the people with big/medium rooms. But I will have to look at some good room trea... 
Evolution Acoustics MMMicroOne
Evolution Acoustics MMThree would be my dream speaker. But JTinn, I am on Robsker's side of argument. Take a look at my system. By your standards it is probably in class C/D/E.... But think - when I want to upgrade, I will always want to hear comp... 
Upgrading Fuses
Metro04/Jeff,My point was related to "generalization" that you make regarding the fuses or other upgrades. You guys make a point that all fuses are same and there is no point in upgrading them. A $0.25 fuse is same as $45 fuse.On the same lines, I... 
Upgrading Fuses
Well, how conveniently do the non-believers ignore genuine requests. Jeff (or any non-believers), you do not mention your system nor attempt to reply why I chose my existing cable over some expensive cables. 
Upgrading Fuses
Jeff,You did not comment on my Nordost VS Signal Cable point. The price point of the lower end Nordost was about $200 compared to the $350 Signals. The higher end Nordost were north of $800 and I did not prefer them.BTW, I am eager to know your co...
