where to invest???


hi all, back again looking for some advice from the group. not sure where to post so i thought i'd start here. saved up a couple bucks and was looking to upgrade cabling first. but actually i am not sure what upgrade/additions would benefit my system best and to take care of first. specifically my system needs: isolation for evrything(was thinking herbies), upgrading cableing, ic's and speaker(am using blue jeans throught, was thinking pnf, ps audio statement, straley), aftermarket pc's(currently using all stock pc's, was looking at TAD's jellyfish ironlung all around to start or ps audio powerpunch), OR upgrading power conditioning(currently using belkin pf30 and a quantum symphony. was looking at audiomagic stealth basic, blue circle noisehound products, maybe a ps audio product). i can only do 1 complete category for the near future(at least a year). where do you guys think my money would be best spent?
system:
dedictaed lines
jaton operetta 5140
marantz sr-6003(as pre)
totem dreamcatchers
ps3
belkin pf30/quantum symphony
bluejeans cable
THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!

If you own your home, consider an Environmental Potentials EP-2050 whole
house power filter/surge protector. Installs at the circuit panel, and it filters the
power throughout your home.

$550 plus installation. If you're handy with AC, you can install it yourself.
I have an EP-2050 installed at my service panel. Like Stringreen, I noticed a subtle change in improved clarity. I'm comfortable knowing the product is used in commercial applications, is a proven technology, and my entire home benefits from its filtering and surge protection.

That said, I also use aftermarket power cords, and an Alan Maher Design Reference Power Center V2.

Doug at Environmental Potentials recommended using their EP-2450 Home Theater Power Supply in addition to the EP-2050, but I have not tried it.
