Can i clean the female insides of my powercables ?
I wonder if Dave Letterman is an audiophile? He'd probably be amused by this one. Classic comedic stuff here, but don't quit your day job! 
I need help on directionality of speaker cables
Thanks for the responses... I did not intend to get folks riled up over what I thought was an innocent question :0)I've gone with the advice of Aball & Fatparrot, and all is well. Peace out.

Counterfeit Audio?
I looked at the ad in question. My gut instinct is to "STAY AWAY"! Among other things, the picture of the packaging does not look like it came from a legit manufacturer. I would think that a legit Cello component would have custom sized packaging.... 
Rogue Cronus too bright
Call the folks at Rogue.... their customer service is supposed to be very good. 
High eff speakers? Sonata III, Super III, OR ???
I owned Silverline Sonata II's driven by Pathos Twin Towers Reference. Very nice combo, but could have benefitted from a musical sub (I can recommend the REL Storm III). The Sonata III's have different drivers and are slightly less efficient than ... 
Pathos Integrateds
Being a former owner of the Twin Towers Reference, I would strongly recommend the Inpol2 (supposed to be similar to a Twin Towers on steroids). I would still own the Twin Towers if I had not changed to innefficient speakers (Dynaudio 1.3SE's). I'd... 
Best sub for Dynaudio 1.3SE's
I have my 1.3SE's teamed up with a REL Storm III. I highly recommend this combo! My past experience with Velodyne SPL-1000 was just so-so. 
Adding a sub to a 2 channel stereo?
I've owned three subs over the last 8 years:- Atlantic Technologies 352PBM- Velodyne SPL-1000- REL Storm IIIThe REL blows the other two away, and I don't foresee the need to upgrade... unless I run into a lot of fun money, in which case, I'd just ...

Tube amp for Silverline Sonata II
Until just recently, I owned the Sonata II's, and was driving them well with a Pathos Twin Towers Reference (hybrid integrated)... this combo had very nice synergy. Based on what is currently available, I'd consider the following: - AES Sixpacks @... 
I got a little rig what do I do now?
The Heron is the Cadillac, the Kestrel is the Chevy Malibu.If I were to pick between the three brands, in order, I'd pick: 1. Dynaudio 2. Proac 3. Meadowlark (no longer in business) 
I got a little rig what do I do now?
This thread cracks me up... funny jabs Doug & Chad!As far as speakers, I'd shoot for some Dynaudio floorstanders (currently listed in your price range: Audience 72's, Contour T2.5's & two pairs of Contour 1.8 mk II's). I love the Dynaudio ...
