Indispensable Tool!
It's January 1st, not April 1st. This is the most ignorant thing related to audio I've seen in a while and they're soaking the gullible for at least $28. Unbelievable.   
What use to burn in power cords?
Burn-in is a fallacy that satisfies one's expectation bias. Don't waste your time.  
My speaker upgrade journey - and a few questions
If I read your post correctly, you cancelled an order for speakers because not many people here "love them" which is as much of a mistake as believing someone when they tell you your Yamaha would be an "insult" to your system. I'm no Tekton shill ... 
Why do people like reel to reel players?
Nostalgia.  
A great interconnect between Soulution 751 and 725

Basic question about sensitivity
It simply means that at one watt of power a speaker will produce the given amount of decibels. A flea watt amp will drive those Harbeth’s just fine, but it may not get loud enough to work in larger rooms.

I check a site or 2 on a daily basis and on one of them the interconnects and speaker cables and power cables often sell pretty quickly after being listed. Seems like a lot of people erroneously believe that electrons can tell what kind of wiring ... 
How to make your amp more expensive
Something (else) odd about a lot of humans believing that something heavier is better, even pets. I've heard more than one person (almost always a guy) say, "I've got a 150 pound Rottweiler (or any other large breed)  and he's great." No sir, you ... 
Hooked up Shiit Mani incorrectly
A good place to ask these kinds of questions is the people who made the equipment.  
Martin Logan vs. Everything
You're absolutely not wrong so don't let a salesman's goal to sell you different speakers influence you. Also, don't let some self-important person who knows nothing about you influence you with talk about a "weak link" in your system. They only l... 
Suggestions for Giant Killer rca coax digital cable under $500 used
1's and 0's. It doesn't matter.  
power cable
It doesn't matter and if you have someone to assist in blind testing, you'll realize that.
