Power Cable - what´s your best?
You need Signal Cable Power Cords. 
Good Interconnects for NAD?
Signal Cable Silver Resolution. 
best sacd out there 1,000.00 or so
Marantz SA8260. Get an in-home demo and be ready to be amazed. If you listen to Jazz/Classical, then SACD will make it. Else you will not make it with SACD. 
Small-ish speakers for a very large room?
You need to audition the Quad 12Ls or 21Ls. 
Best cd player for under $800.00
If you can find a Marantz SA8260, nothing else comes close to it in the price range. It is so good in CD-playback that you can compare it to CD only players costing upto $2500. But the best way to find it out is to get a demo in your listening env...

SACD - Dying already?
Did you gys read on the H-ROM on this very forum. I had not even heard about it - but for this forum. Looks like it will store 300GB with existing Red Laser. Transfer rate is 20MB/sec.Adds to more confusion from a consumer point-of-view. 
Whither Blu-Ray and HD-DVD?
Nice....more confusion for the consumers, unless this is mainly used for data storage. I wonder how come the tech media is not sploshing the headlines with this news. It has awesome storage - compared to todays HDDs on home PCs and Laptops.I hope ... 
Totem vs Audio Physic / Schweikert
I have compared the Arros to Yaras....and can easily say that the Yaras are a different league. But then the price is also $700 more. Heard the Sttaf, but was not that much impressed as compared to Hawks. The Virgos are the best, of the models you... 
Another sign SACD is dying
Smw30yahoocom, I understand your point. My audio dealer gave me an advise - which is a very nice from customer point of view - don't go for SACD. He asked me to stick to the RBCD and enjoy the music rather than jumping into a format which has not ...

Smw30yahoocom, a lot depends on the entire system. Also it depends on the recording of the SACD itself. I have not yet come across a SACD that is too bright for my taste. I have noticed that SACDs that are PCM converted are a bit more brighter tha...
