Isolation Feet for Blu-ray Player?
Knownothing: Wood would just continue the underlying issue; resonance transmission from player feet to cabinet. The mechanical vibration from the drive needs to be isolated, redirected into other energy.Franklapdog: Thanks. The small IsoNode would... 
Does anyone have advice on power cables?
There's always used power cords.... PSA AC3 is fine, even the Jewel is decent enough (12 AWG, but smaller dia jacket/dialectric, no PE and different connectors). Either way, with the money saved, consider another PC (Furman,..etc), also fuses (HiF... 
Isolation Feet for Blu-ray Player?
I had thought of trying sorbothane since this was for more mechanical/video application. I don't care for it from an audio system perspective. Sorbothane pucks w/ metal band (AQ?) were my first "tweak" 20 years ago and my opinion of them changed a... 
Remote control of hidden components?
Ordered Harmony 300 Remote and IR Extender System.I was too overwhelmed being a total novice with this. Too many solutions with not enough answers and no experience. I have to start somewhere and gain some experience. May as well be the least expe...

Remote control of hidden components?
Are all IR repeater/extenders and IR Universal Remotes compatible?I was thinking to get an IR repeater/extender for now (URC, Harmony, Salamander,...) and then get a UR once I decide on one. They're not very expensive and i can live with the IR re... 
Remote control of hidden components?
Looks cool. Mines nothing like that. Just a plain room with low media console, hidden gear, table top LCR speakers, REL sub to one side, and soon to be wall mounted plasma. I'll have pictures later on.

Fuse for Marantz BD8002 & SR5004?

Remote control of hidden components?
Soix: I actually saw that before. It is a good, inexpensive solution. Just don't care for the style of remote. Do they have to design them w/o any aesthetics though.I may try the Logitech Harmony RF, or their RF receiver with URC remote.Streetdadd... 
How to set up REL Subwoofer?
Never mind. Got it.I also ordered a Analysis-Plus Super Sub Subwoofer cable w/ Furutech connectors and a custom speakON cable using fat Oval and BFA silver bananas. Should be sweet. Ordered a HFT fuse also. This is going to be one fine sounding sub. 
HT Speaker Wire Suggestions....?
I've decided to try Analysis-Plus Clear Oval, as well as their Super Sub Subwoofer cable w/ Furutech connectors, and a custom REL Neutrik speakON cable using Fat Oval and BFA bananas. Should be nice. 
Does anyone have advice on power cables?
PS Audio PerfectWave AC3 or AC5. Also their Jewel for C7 type plug. They're quite well made for the price and do a fine job. Upgrade all power cords for best results.Btw, I have a new set of #16 Anti-Cables for LCR I'm about to list for sale; 6' s... 
How to set up REL Subwoofer?
Does anyone have a wiring diagram for the Neutrik speakON cable? I've contacted REL and Sumiko with no reply as of yet. 
Fuse for Marantz BD8002 & SR5004?
I have handled it when I removed it from the box, inspected, and placed on shelf. The less I have to handle, move around, and open up, the better, less chance of damage,..etc. That's why my gear looks like new years later when I decide to sell and...
