Cables for Soundlab speakers
There is nothing obviously wrong with the system. Imaging could be a bit better as well as bass definition. Source is a SFCD 1 cd player through a SFL 2 pre-amp. Using Bear Labs Silver Lightning XLR interconnects. The speakers are about 3 feet fro... 
Speaker Cable for Thiel 3.6
I used Straightwire rhapsody cables with good results and they can be found for a great price. 
What's your profession? Age?
Sorry, that would be " crossing guard"

Your Analog Front End

cartridge suggestions w/ LP12
There is a Ruby with a .8 mv output(Ruby H) that would be fine as far as output goes. The glider I use now is .9mv and that seems fine. After I buy this cartridge I won't have any pennies left to solder into the phono stage, if you know what I mea... 
cartridge suggestions w/ LP12
How much better do you think the Ruby would sound, I believe that there is a good trade in allowance for Benz micro products so I can go higher than "retail" with those
