5 meter Speaker Cable Recommendation - flexibility important
Call Klaus at Odyssey and see what he can do for you on a pair of the Quattro Reference cable made by Groneberg.  I use them in both my systems and they are very neutral and have excellent bass slam. 
Integrated amp recommendation for B&W 805 D3 (Peachtree, Parasound, Hegel, Schiit?)
I have had a Parasound Halo Integrated in my secondary system for about 1 1/2 years. I love this amp! Remember, the Peachtree amps are Class D where the Parasound is Class AB and the circuits are designed by John Curl. I am running it with a pair ...

Golden Ear Triton 1, Triton 2 or Triton 2+.  All excellent for rock music. 
Looking to upgrade amp, need help.
+1 for Safe and Sound HQ in Chicopee, Mass.  I bought my Halo Integrated from them and they were very easy to deal with.

french_fries....................................I listen to 95% rock and out of that 70% is Classic Rock. It all sounds fantastic on my system which certainly isn’t mid fi. Funny you mention CSN&Y, as I listened to Deja Vu on my VPI Prime Satu...

+1 for the Esoteric integrated.  Its a great deal.  You could also look at a Parasound Halo Integrated.  You should be able to pick up a used one for 1700-1800.00 or a new one for around 2200-2300.00.  I went from a Rogue Cronus Magnum 100wpc tube... 
Eminent Technology LFT-8b in Harry's system
Harry does  have a good ear. 
Can upgraded power cords help my setup?
The Pangea Ac9 SE MK2 sucked all the life out of my system, back they went to Audio Advisor.   
Fm tuner
Magnum Dynalab tuners pop up here every now and then.  Go for something like an MD-90 or above.  I own 2 different Magnum Dynalab tuners and I am extremely satisfied. 
Golden ear triton 1 vs tekton double impact speakers
gdhal.........I agree with you 100%.  I feel he is shilling for Tekton.  I tried a pair of their Pendragons 2 years ago at my home was very unimpressed.  I kept asking where is the bass?I think you and I are 5-6 weeks away to our GE References.  I... 
Any love for the Belles Aria or other recent Belles amplifier?
I also heard the Aria Monoblocks at Johnny R Audio Connection.  The system it  was in was quite modestly priced, but it put many much more expensive systems I have heard to shame.  Out of all the different systems Johnny R played for me, I was mos... 
Odyssey Kismet Reference series.
I am driving GE Triton 1 speakers, soon the Triton Reference and it sounded much better than the Magtech amp.  However, my speakers aren't power hungry panels and my speakers have a 1600 watt subwoofer amp in each cabinet. 
Odyssey Kismet Reference series.
I went from a Stratos Extreme+++ to the full Kismet stereo amp in the Stratos case.  There is quite a difference and well worth the upgrade price.  The bass goes much deeper, you can see more into the soundstage, there is an over all ease to the m...
