What Ever Happened to ST Optical?
I think there is for sale in Audiogon. Search under Wadia. If you can't find it, try usedcable.com. I bought a couple of them at about $35 to 50 each. Good luck. 
How many cd/dvd/sacd/cdr's players do you own?
Total 11. From Wadia 860 to a cheapo $50 portable. 
Affordable Transport
The Pioneer Elite PD65 cd player has a very good transport that's used by Wadia and Theta. You can find a used PD65 for around $400. 
Headphones, or Speakers???
I am listening to my Stax Lamda Signature this very minute. It's a very good headphone but it can't reproduce the imaging and bass as my Revel Studios.

Will this kill an amp?
It'll work fine. The amp won't blow up. I just spoke to an electrician about cutting a couple holes to install Revel Embrace. 
Revel Studio or Salon?

I use Audioquest Dragon and Sterling in my sytem. Two pairs of Dragons are used for biwiring and the Sterling is used for the center speaker in my HT. One of the improvements that I heard was tighter bass over the Tara Lab copper speaker cables th...
