Line Conditioners or Power Filters?????
Has anyone tried the Blue Circle Audio BC86 MKIII Noisehound. I'v heard these were really good filters. 
Sonus Faber Extremas with Sub or Amati Homages
Semi, the midbase in the Guarneri's is 100 percent polypropelene. There's no carbon fiber in it. I think its a great midbase, but the Skaaning midbase in the Extremas was my favorite sounding midbase. I rate the JM Lab W Cone midbase the 2nd best ... 
Nautilus803 with ASW 800, or 802 as main speakers?
I would take the Nautilus 802s. The Nautilus 802s sound so much better then the Nautilus 803s. I didn't think the bass and mids blended in right on the 803s. Where on the 802s they sounded just right. 
adcom GFP-750 or aragon 28K
I own the Adcom 750 preamp. I haven't heard the Aragon. I can only tell you the Adcom is an amazing preamp. It sounds very natural. It doesn't add its own sound, like some preamps do. It just sounds very natural. Its one of the best preamps.

Sonus Faber Extremas with Sub or Amati Homages
Sscot1961, actually the midbase on the Extremas is a Skaaning. The Skaaning is a Carbon Fiber Polypropelene midbase. This is the best sounding midbase I ever heard. It has a richness that no other midbase has. I like it better then the new Skaanin...

Best stand mounted monitors
Artesuono monitor speakers from Italy. They sound great with the Rel Stadium sub. There's a pic of the Artesuono's on Audiogon. Just type in Artesuono in search. 
JM Labs Beryllium
Labtec, your right about Cabasse. They make some of the best sounding speakers. The Cabasse Iroise and Pacifica 600 are 2 of my favorite sounding speakers. They sound so articulate. The bass is so amazing
