Signal Cable Analog 2
Blazen69,I suggest you give Frank a call, and tell him what you're looking for. I've dealt with him over the phone, several times, I even visited the shop, and converse with his brother, who handles all orders. I can tell you, honestly, that all S... 
Ars Sonum / Merlin TSM-MX???
Manley Labs should also be mentioned here. I've had quite a few experiences running different Manley amps with my TSM-MX. Using seperates like, 100/200 mono-blocks, Snappers, to the mighty Stingray, well not necessarily in that order, but you get ... 
Tube, hybrid or solid state for Merlin TSM-MMs?

Speaker Cable for Merlin TSM-MM

Getting all new cables and need sugestions
My vote goes for Signal cable. Email Frank, or better yet, give him a call, and he'll set you up.

I second Banksfriend opinions, I've own Signal Cable for the past 3 years, and I swear by them. Great performance at a great price. You can also give Frank a call, he can help you with what you need. 
feedback on a new system please
I second Bobheinatz suggestions concerning the Merlin TSM-MX. I own a pair, and I'm driving them with a Manley Stingray. Great combo, very involving! Took delivery of the TSM-MX, early May, and I've been nothing but impressed with the sound of tho...
