KLEI web site is now up and runninghttp://www.KLEinnovations.comMr Eichmann has an Interesting approach to cables as well as RCA plugsTake a look :-) 
The last 6 feet - is it important?
Samac - You remind me of me :-) Never realised how much difference power cables actually made - then voila!It really is an epipheny isn't it !:-)

Samac - that is a very interesting power cord design - I will be looking into those for sureLike the look of their Silver Electra 7'sThanks 
The last 6 feet - is it important?
Samac - do they specify a max length ?What brand/mpdel are you using?Thanks

I uderstand that the filter analogy might help lower the noise floor and bring the details out - but how does it help with dynamics ?You really need instantaneous power "reserves" to improve dynamics don't you?Simply putting in good copper didn't ... 
DIGITAL HIGH-RES AUDIO SYSTEM -HELP PLEASE
Tim - just google "free 24/96 24/192 music"Odyssey Audio lists a few sites offering free-beesThey are mainly sample tracks but I've picked up about a dozen so far and they are very well recordedTry this site also http://www.2l.no/hires/index.html-...

Ooops - in the posts above the impedance numbers should have read ...50, 75 and 110 ohms - my mistake - hate these virtual keyboards.Apologies

Bif - it's Gatorade - it enhances performance ! Couldnt resist :-) 
DIGITAL HIGH-RES AUDIO SYSTEM -HELP PLEASE
Tim - it's your preference - only you can define a structure that suits your needs.I merely pointed out apple's structure as an example. It happens to work for meTo get to other structures of organizing - like sample size, composer and genre you m...

Bif - no such thing as a dumb question.International Annealed Copper Standard:It’s a measure of the conductivity of various metals relative to “Pure Copper” having a rating of 100%, a standard developed for copper wire producers. For Complete Defi...

Bifwynne - it's the quality of the copper used in the TC range - "hyper pure copper"- it probably has higher IACS conductivity rating, but they don't publish that.I've found that all cables with higher quality copper - or better still silver -have... 
DIGITAL HIGH-RES AUDIO SYSTEM -HELP PLEASE
Tim - the hierachichal folder structure used by iTunes is...Artist - album - tracksNot sure if you need anything else.On the downside - I have a few tracks that feature other artists - which results in multiple folders for a single artist..E.g.Emi... 
The last 6 feet - is it important?
UPDATE - Ive since constructed a second cable from Kimber 4TC - a better quality cable.Their was a discernable improvement in micro-details, dynamics and a slightlly deeper image. The difference in price was an additional $60 for a five foot cable...
