SA11 S2 SACD player. I'm listening to more CDs
I meant to say filter 2 is my preference for redbook. Filter 3 is too laid back for my tastes.

They may not be. My S1 has 3 settings. Setting 1 is no filter, and then 2 and 3. Filter seems to work best for most redbooks.

Not sure how much better the S2 is than the S1 but I love my S1. Don't have that many SACD's but enjoy the hell out of this player. Tzh21y what filter do you listen to mainly? I listen on 2 for redbook and no filter for SACD. 
ARC Tube preamp suggestions
LS7 is very lush.

DCCA or Shunyata help?

Thiel 3.7 vs Wilson Sasha
Without reading any of the responses I would say 3.7's. Personally I think Wilson's are overrated and I know for a fact that the 3.7's are very very good speakers because a buddy of mine has them and they image like a bitch. They do require power ...

If you can try the GE triple mica black plates. 
New Marantz SA11S2?
Are your Western Electric cords of recent build or older? The ones I had are older and either double or single braided. The single braid was for lower wattage and double higher and higher gauged. The older double braids are double wrapped or wound... 
New Marantz SA11S2?
Mr Tennis which Western Electric powercord do you have, the single or double braid??? I had both in my system and they are very detailed and made my system sound kind of thin. For the money they are good powercords and not many out there but just ...
