Esoteric X 03 Power Cord and Interconnect Recommen
I moved from the Golden Cross to Golden Ref and have stuck with them ever since.Have also had good luck with Shunyata vX cords on digital front ends. 
On a budget 802N or 803D??? Dealer says 803D.
Recently sold my N802's to move to the Diamond line. Ended up with the big ones, but listened to the 803D's quite a bit. IMO, a much better speaker then my N802's, but, Big is right, you will need to be careful with system matching. Classe amps ar... 
levinson 32 heat
I had a similar experience to Dan. One side ran much hotter then the other, and the unit had a "whine". After sending mine back for the third time, my dealer convinced Levinson to provide me with a refurbed/restock unit (both pieces). I haven't ha... 
Led Zeppelin Classic Records 45 series -Am I nuts?
$16 a slab or about $32 for a 45RPM album of Led Zeppelin, on par with a lot of other 45 titles. Not too bad, you just have to buy them all...at the same time.... Still cheaper then upgrading my power cord though... 
What is best to use for SACD
Which universal player and reciever? 
Revel B15 Second Sub Question
Highly recommend against stacking (you'll see it in the manual). Subs are too heavy and are not designed to do so. Experiment with different locations for each, then have fun setting up the eq! 
CD Players With Balanced Variable Outputs?
Levinson 39/390S 
what is the best amp for B&W 802N
The new Delta amps from Classe are a perfect match for the B&W's. I would assume that the older ones are good too. The N802's can use as much power as you can give them, but don't skimp on the quality to get it. Best match I've heard is the CA... 
Opinions On Used Speakers music only $5K $6K
Size of the room is a problem for really filling with bass, agree with Nick. However, IRT the N802 and D803, there is no comparison. Buy the D803. It is better in every way then the older N802. Buy a new pair if you have to and have the dealer hoo... 
Best power cable for levinon no 336?
No options with the 336, the power cord is fixed. I use Cardas Golden Ref's with B&W Diamond speakers and find the mix just right for my tastes. 
THE LATEST---Gold plated fuses?

unrepairable Proceed PMDT
I was in the same boat as you, but opted to pay the difference and got the RT-20 instead. A much better all around unit and worth the money. Maybe your dealer can work you a deal, I paid retail diff. I was not impressed with the RT-10 I used previ... 
Linn users need your advice on Amps.
Trying not to sound like a sales pitch here, but, if you haven't heard the 102 DVD-A player, then go back and try to find that one. The 500 preamp has been upgraded at some point as well, try to find a new one.The Linn monos are exceptional, but a... 
Best processor that is excellent for 2 Ch music
While I agree with Absolute, with your 90% split for music, I think you should go with a stereo pre with HT pass-through, which most have now. I used to own an AVP2, which I thought was great for 2 channel, until I bought a Levinson pre as well. H... 
Linn users need your advice on Amps.
I posted on your other link but, I have used a Chakra Twin on my N802's and it did not have the power necessary to drive them to even adequate levels. Really was a shame though, it made really good sound if kept low.My thoughts IRT your tastes, lo...
