hey art, hey fred...as for speakers, plinius is a great match with sonus faber and dynaudio, both of which i've heard and i own dynaudio 2.8's (and don't care to switch) along with the plinius sa-201. always loved vandersteen and sometimes miss my 2ce sigs.
i have tried a ton of ic's and best for plinius deal goes to au24, analysis plus solo crystal and vh audio pulsar. but, best goes to siltech (i even purchased a pair from artg)....i actually like the g3 series better than the g5 (haven't heard the sq110 and can't afford the g6).
i'm still checking out speaker cables, but really like the bear labs silver thunder (bettered ap oval 9, xindak, dh labs and audioquest). i am looking forward to trying ocos (recommended by dyn) and a full zu cable ic/sc with varial/libtec soon....kind of a cable junkie i guess.
best pc i found for the plinius (tried many) goes to vh audio! way to go! i have the airsine.....second goes to the inexpesive giant killer audience powerchord whic is a little more forward than the vh airsine. kinda curious over the new dcca and never tried electraglide....liked elrod eps3sig too.
keep on rockin' and enjoy the tunes along the way.
