    Audioquest Bedrock (See Audio Advisor) is up to 72% off. Outstanding speaker cable.

    Audioquest Copperhead, Sidewinder, or Diamondback IC's.

    Enjoy! I love my HCA-1500A. Give it plenty of room for cooling, especially the top; at least 8" clearance if its in an enclosed rack. You can get away with less room in an open rack.

    and with my set-up which amp should i use for the highs and which for the lows? I see alot of info on bi wiring out there and would like some imput on what you guys think. will good wire do the job just as well as buying these hi dollar cables? How in the hell could frick-en speaker cable cost that much (theres a conspiracy going on):confused:

    Excellent choice in amplification, it's a real solid piece.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
