    • Esoteric X-03SE
    Pro: Violin solo and classical Con: Lack of emotion on some vocal recordings, may be too much detail~
    • Jeff Rowland Continuum 500
    Lacking the lower note control, great mid & upper range int. amp
    • Dynaudio Confidence C1
    Very detail and great for a small room like mine.
    • Cardas Golden Reference 1M IC
    I haven't tried some more expensive ones yet but their performance is acceptable as of now.
    • Cardas Golden Reference 2.5M Speaker Cable
    Same as IC, saving up some cash for something different. I really wish to test the Tara Labs The one and Superconductor on my system. Hope it happens soon~
    • Musical Fidelity Stable-1 x2
    The before and after difference is noticeble. It's worth the price tag if you can still find one on the market.
    • Oyaide F1 / M1 + EE/F-S 2.6 (2M)
    I test it on both DAC and Int. Amp. Difference is very noticeble. It's being used on the INT amp now as I found JR Continumm 500 sounds more neutural with this power cord. May be it's just in my setup. I highly recommend this power cord for anyone who wants to dig more detail out of their current system. It does really help. Price might be a little high for a custom cable.
    • Oyaide P004/C004 + 4N Copper Litz (2M)
    Used on the X-03SE, beyond my expectation for the price i paid.
    • Oyaide R1
    The before and after difference is not as noticeble as the F1/M1 + EE/F-S 2.6 but it's a solid outlet.
    • Solidsteel HS-2
    Very beautiful stand. Simple and solid.
    • Weiss Medea
    Very smooth while detail.
    • Tara Labs The 0.8
    Great imaging with smooth highs.

If you want a deeper sound stage, there are not that many ways to do so: you need more space between the front wall and your speakers. If you do so, the problem you'll probably encounter is this: you'll get more sound stage depth but you'll be compromising bass response. Nice system by the way.
