Which amp with Wilson watt puppy 8
I heard the Watt Puppy 8's when they were released, and I thought then that the treble was kinda "hot" sounding. The bass seemed ok though. I would think, as has been posted, you will need a more powerful amp with a softer sound, that is able to ... 
Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables
Yes, it would. ozzy  
Best and Worst customer service?
My recent entries Best: Stack Audio, Rick Shultz, Michi all have been exemplary. Worst By a country mile, Tascam. Never, never buy from them, or have them service your equipment. ozzy

Frequently asking to re-login
Admin, 25 hours of inactivity is really a short time frame. Can't you extend that to maybe 72 hours? ozzy  
Looking for new speaker cables
Based on all the great comments about Silversmith speaker cables I ended up buying a set. With my system at the time, (tube amps) they made the sound very dull and closed in. However, other friends that use them with tube amps like them. It must... 
Synergistic Grounding Block and Tweaking it.
kennyc, The SR box is great for chassis grounding. While the Entreq is better for signal grounding. Sorta like a sink for ground nasties. ozzy
