Any one try the new Synergistic Research BLUE UEF Duplex receptacle?
I well add with the NCF the instruments have more weight, if thats the right word to use. The music seems more solid with weight, impact.

 I find the NCF-R to be better then the Black in Transparency, bass with a holographic soundstage. I hadn't really thought of musical until David Pritchard mentioned it above.Im preferring the NCF-R currently, to be honest Im running NCF IEC in al... 
Accuphase DAC-50: Glaring sibilance
Please let us know how it sounds after 4-500 hrs. Yes that lovely Accuphase sound.

I was using the Black for several years, and was very happy with it. I then started reading so much on the Furutech GTX D NSF R that I decided to try it even tho it needed 700 hrs of burn in to sound its best. I found the biggest change in the upp... 
What is the most important component in your system.
Agree with hifibouncer, proper speaker placement allows you to properly here the components. Of of course all the components in the chain must act togeather including proper cabling both ic , sc and more importantly pc. 
DIY Power Cables Instead of Used
The cables well take 600 hrs to burn in but the Fi 50 NSF is closer to 700 hours, be patient and enjoy the burn in.

Let it burn in for 400 - 500 hrs then see how it sounds. Relax, enjoy the burn in. 
If cost was no factor, what system would you build as your main audio system?
There is a reason why megabuck systems have megabuck cabling. You never see the budget cables on these systems. How many people here who actually criticize the megabuck cables have actually HEARD them in a megabuck system. I'm willing to bet NONE.

WC, 4 ft off the back and 3ft off the side walls. Are these measurements from the Tweeter or from the side cabinet and back cabinet. Thanks for giving some measurements on speaker placement. The Gryphon Colosseum or Antileon Evo stereo is the Gryp... 
DIY Power Cables Instead of Used
The Furutech FP S55N is a limited addition and is mostly sold out in the US and the DSP4 ( Not FPN4 , I was wrong) is like I said expensive. The TC series of cables would be good BUT whatever you do get the FI 50 NSF connectors they are more impor...

WC, on page 43 you mentioned the speakers well only be 8ft apart with 1 feet from the side wall's and rear walls. Your current listening room is 10 ft wide? 
Onkyo m510 grand integra
Looks like there's one for sale now on Audiogon for a cool $9000.00. Never had the opportunity to hear one but $9K for a 30 year olds amp. You can buy alot of great modern day amps for that amount of coin and Im quite sure they'll sound alot bette... 
DIY Power Cables Instead of Used
What about getting some Furutech FP S55n with Furutech FI 50 NSF connectors, unbelievably good DIY sort of and would sell pretty quickly if needed. There as good as any Shunyata cables including the new Sigmas at a fraction of the cost. The Furute...

Speaking of rooms, could you tell us your room dimensions, speaker set up. Are you using the Cardas method, Wilson Auido speaker placement ( WASP) or how do you set up your speakers WC ?

I'm sure the Gryphon 300 sounds excellent has you mention WC, many Gryphon / Magico owners go with the Antileon Evo or Colosseum. Has good has the 300 is' it's nowhere near the Antelion or Colosseum from what they say.I unfortunately have not had ...
