Toslink Question ?
Paulsax: Thanks for the correct on TOSlink fiber induced dispersion....One thing I'm confused about then is that like any other digital signal (incoming or outgoing), somewhere along this path there is a negative impact from jitter being introduce... 
Toslink Question ?
Digital cables that are damaged or of low quality can introduce jitter which does damage the quality of what you hear viz what your pre/pro gets to decode. I used toslink for many years but found that for the money, any S/PDIF 75-ohm coaxial cable... 
the benefits of romex & oyaide WPZ
Agreed....getting rid of Romex and going with good quality OFC (10 gauge, I did not use Oyaide, just good high quality OFC) in a good conduit with correct grounding, etc....accompanied by Oyaide R1s did wonders for my last 2 systems as well! 
The pursuit of bass...
Agreed with all that has been said hear regarding getting all frequencies as close to 'right' as possible and the difficulties of getting midrange right as the alternative is often hard on the ears and intolerable. Full spectrum bass adds so much ... 
Dream system - but no aftermarket power cords
I'd suggest that you first get a very good power cord on the Tesla unit as that is the first and one of the (if not the most important) cord in the system. Any component upstream will benefit in part from this purchase. 
Pre-Amp vs Processor
What player are you considering? I definitely agree with Rcrerar above.....

What kind of cable do I need
According to the manual, the BD35K has both Coax and TOS Link. Is the BD35 an older model? If it only has TOS Link then you'll use that to go into your DAC. This presumes you are only looking for 2-channel (unless your DAC does more than that). 
What kind of cable do I need
Do you mean the DMP-BD35K? According to Panasonic's website, this and the other network connection are for BD-Live compatible devices and allow you to connect your player to both the internet (to obtain BD-Live info, firmware updates, etc...) as w...

Sherbourn 7/200a experience wanted
You will like it very much I'm sure; Markeetaux's comments are typical of other 7/200a and 7/2100 owners I've run across. Markeetaux's comments reminded me of something I forgot to mention above namely that before I picked up the Sherbourn PT-7010... 
krell 20il or ayon cd5
That's a great question...a fellow A'goner and myself were just talking about whether his 25 was better than the Ayon CD-5 two days ago. Let me know what you hear in the way of feedback as the 20 and 25 were both great units in their day and the A...
