Speaker Cable Blending
1. Wrong drinks.  Get some new, more expensive ones; things will immediately sound better.2. Drinks insufficiently broken in.  Allow to age some more. 
The midi range, not the tweeter, is the most important driver in a speaker.
I’ve found I’ve almost always liked speakers using Scanspeak drivers.ProAc coaxed some serious bass from a driver not much bigger than a dedicated mid-range.

In need of a new bluray player lost without oppo now what ?
Pioneer is where it's at right now, but I don't know if they have a less expensive version of their 1K model. 
How do you properly size a speaker?
Is that in inches or centimeters?Sensitivity. Look for at least a 96. 
Best integrated tube amplifier, under $3,000.00. No phono needed. Could be used, too.d

Remote Balance Control: on Tube Integrated Amp?
No one is going to motorize a conventional balance control.You need to find a unit with two volume controls, for left and right channels.  Rather like what Sonic Frontiers did with their preamps.But does this exist in a tube integrated?? 
The midi range, not the tweeter, is the most important driver in a speaker.
Let's pose this question another way:within the normal range of human hearing, how many octaves are typically handled by 1. the tweeter, 2. the mid-range, 3. the woofer?

What CD Transports Provide the Most Detail?
Project recently came out with a $3K top-loader.  They're evidently still serious about this medium.  And it only reads Red Book. 
The midi range, not the tweeter, is the most important driver in a speaker.
Perhaps because mid-ranges can be great or just OK.Whereas tweeters can be very good or really obnoxious.So that's what draws the bulk of the attention.
