Which complete set of cables to try out?
A Canada company may work well. Very affordable, including the top tier: https://www.zavfino1877.com/cable--accessories  
Is a cheaper DAC + Reclocker better than just an expensive DAC?
Jerry @carlsbad but….. you can certainly find top quality streamers built in top quality DACs. I took a look at the OP’s system. You are right. Laptop can do fine for the time being. I am not familiar with those speakers and the amp at all, so ta... 
Is a cheaper DAC + Reclocker better than just an expensive DAC?
Buy the best DAC you can afford. If you still have the itch later on, you can try a reclocker down the road.   IMO, you can improve the streaming quality immensely by ditching a general purpose Windows laptop as a streamer. Plenty of good dedica...

@mikelavigne : how many serious hobbyists will put up with that? not many.....and we see them gone. That's exactly the goal of the disruptors (read: crazies)    
High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260

@jji666 : I think “Thyname” refers to Iron Maiden, not religion. Spot on! How did you figure this out? My favorite Maiden track since I was a teenager many years ago:   Edit: I just noticed your username. 666. I should have thought abou... 
High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260
my only complaint at this early juncture is a skewing of the tonal signature slightly away from richness to lean   These are exactly my thoughts on day 2 since partial application. Hopefully it goes back to richness soon  
MSB DAC's Popularity
I no longer own MSB. I used to own the entry level, the Discrete. Excellent DAC in its price range. One thing to know for sure, the customer service from MSB, especially from Vince Galbo is outstanding, top notch.

My Q45-T arrived today. I could not resist, so I applied to two power cords (DAC and Integrated Amp), and the XLR interconnects. That’s it for tonight.   I was not sure what to expect, if anything at all. But damn! This is incredible! From the f...

@teo_audio : the next thing they need to do, is to deal with repeat (banned) offenders, that use the same IP over and over and over, with new ID’s. To do as some forums do. Ban IPs. Not users. IPs. I fully agree with this. There was a dude not... 
Network Switches

High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260
My Q45-T is arriving tomorrow (Wednesday). Although likely I won’t have any time to deal with the applications until the weekend
