sweetest sounding ss integrated
I'm using a GamuT DI-150 right now and it's the best integrated I've had, period. And I've had a lot! But boy is it expensive!!! One that made the Absolute Sound "Best List" is the Primare I30. Great build quality and beautiful sound. I own it as ...

What's sweet is I have 2 systems in the same room. A tube(Cary SLI80 Sig F1) and GamuT DI-150 solid state, sharing the same CD player and power cables and speaker cables and speakers! Takes 2 minutes to change. Fun. 
CD player to go with Simaudio I-7 integrated amp
Ayre is one I will be looking at. The Primare is really good stuff. Check the British reviews. I love this hobby and it's great to have a lot of freaks near by to move gear to different systems and rooms. Sharing is fun!

Art, I know what you mean about some silver cables but John has the magic touch. I'm breaking in his silver IC's and they sound REALLY close to the Silkworms. More later along with a review of his power cords. I have both of his power cords. The "... 
CD player to go with Simaudio I-7 integrated amp

Send them back while still under warranty. I'm using a DI-150 integrated and have NO hum unless you put your ear on the amp and then it's just a typical transformer sound.

I have 2 of his power cords. One, the sorce, just for my CD player and one, can't remember the name-I'm at work, made for power amps, for my integrated. Very well made and even though I have just a few hours on them they're great. They replaced PS... 
Best balanced signal cable
Try Kool Cables Inc (Kci) they make more than just gold IC's. His web site needs to be up-dated (koolcables.com) but he makes power cords and speaker cables as well. A great guy to deal with and fantastic cables. 
Power cord for Cary 805AE?
Tran, I'm using the Zu Mother on my Primare I30 I have also had a SimAudio I-7 and the GamuT DI-150 with great results. I have just switched to the Kci Power Cord and it's smoother with the solid state gear. I have a Cary SLI80 Signature F1 coming...

Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?
I drive a Jaguar X-Type. I also have a MINT 1991 Merceades E190 with only 46000 miles. It came with my wife.
