Which area of components to spend the most $ on? Boy I was wrong all my life!
Yeah, I'm no maven, sorry, but 10 posts and big free shill for Marantz... Best anecdotal advertising money can buy. 
Why Power Cables Affect Sound
Instead of listening to music per session and trying to hear if there is a difference, wouldn't it be better to record, say, cymbals, or a flute tone, a guitar note, isolated, and try to a/b it to see if the cord is impacting the sound? 
Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar)

New $24,000 inter-connect

Anyone?...
