Good Interconnects for NAD?
I pretty much agree with Mapleleafs3. You can get nicer-sounding cables than the Monsters (I hope you have the Interlink 400 II or better) but you are even better off putting 200 bucks more into your CD player.If you want to spend the cable money ... 
Great acoustic bass for subwoofer integration
Jsaah has some good ones, above. Gianmaria Testa's "Extra-muros" and Michel Donato/James Gelfand "Setting the Standard" are two more. 
which nad amp sholuld I get?
Well, I guess you have to put both your amp and your speakers into the equation. If your present setup is crapping out on orchestral peaks, you have a headroom problem that won't go away with only double the amplifier power. You will need more lik... 
Help ? with upgrade to budget system
What Swampwalker said, with Vecteur, SimAudio and Bryston as more good solid-state amps to consider. 
which nad amp sholuld I get?
I don't think the C320 BEE will do what you want. It's not a real bass grunter, just a nice sounding amp after it warms up. It has less power output (50 wpc) than what you have now.It's hard to advise you. Why do you want more power? Not enough ba... 
Totem Forest uses a Swan driver???????
DIY is wonderful. You learn a lot. After you learn a lot, you figure out how to save a lot AND get great sound. Before that, it's kinda hit or miss. The advantage of buying speakers you can hear first is that you can hear them first,If you like th...

Shanling SCD T-200 Playback Problems HELP
Wouldn't a laser problem prevent decent playback on all tracks?I've only seen one laser assembly go all bad--my TEAC transport's. It spun up the disc but couldn't find the TOC. The readout showed a disc was loaded but no track count.This transport... 
Shanling SCD T-200 Playback Problems HELP
My T100 only had one odd glitch--on three separate occasions it hung partway through the disc. Switching off and waiting a minute or two fixed it. I think it must have been a problem with static (or perhaps the power line) and the control circuitr... 
Great music but poor recording recommendations.
I agree about Exiles, but the most horribly produced Stones album ever was Between the Buttons. IMHO. I have not even heard a modern, hot-compressed CD mix that can equal it for sound degradation (and I do not wish to be educated)! 
subaruguru DIY power cable
Go to the Audiogon Home page and click on "Member lookup" in the right-hand column. Enter "subaruguru" in the 'username' field and click 'Find member'. You'll get a list of links including current ads and email for the Subaruguru, alias Ernest Meu... 
Where is the pivot point on a RB700?
The pivot in question is the arm pivot---the bearing. The point is the center of the (vertical) axis of the bearing which allows the arm to swing horizontally across the record. 
If I install '20A dedicated circuit'
Power conditioning stuff still helps. In my experience, anyway. That doesn't mean you should reconsider the dedicated line, though 
Help me choose TT of these three candidates.
It's a matter of personal taste, I suppose, but I don't see how the La Luce has any competition at all in the looks department. A perfect 11.
