Should I upgrade my Blu-ray player now?
You might consider "investing" in some AC power isolation and conditioning devices. AC is unlikely to change-or improve in quality- in the forseeable. Good clean power benefits your digital and perhaps your entire rig-permanently. Why not sample S... 
Power cord length?
As an example we've seen in school how standing waves set up. There are always reflections back into power cables; is length a factor there? Can there be an ideal length for our purposes-taking impedance, capacitance, reactance into consideration?...

Leicachamp, you talking on the technical side of this; which was brought forward mu query. 
Loudspeaker dispersion-
As an aside this talk confirms my belief in the good cabinet design (snail) of the B&W flagship Nautilus Loudspeaker. It certainly minimizes speaker cabinet interaction, doesn't it?

You also want a dedicated run for you listening room only. This reduces "in-home generated noise" contaminaion of your audio-video room. 
SACD loading problem with Lexicon RT-20
No idea, but my RT 20 sometimes doesn't want to play a cd.I have found moving the cd on the disc tray helps-but you'll have to experiment. Maybe a call to Lexicon? They said I should take mine in for a check up. Safe call..No problem for me with D... 
Need for Power Conditioning??
Coxhaus you've got a great setup. I'm sure your one of the few to hear a guitar sing from a digital drive. The isolation should be mandatory-well it is for great sound anyway. I agree with Terry-there is no such thing as clean power from the pole,... 
Help with MIT Z Stabilizer prototype....
Thanks Daniel, I will contact Joe. Do you still have your old Z Stabilizer?
