Locking RCAs are stuck
All I can say is be very very careful removing the cables. Don`t want to mess up the rca much less the jack on the equipment. I use Kimber and Cardas cables and I prefer the Cardas because of this very thing thats happened to you. Had the same thi...

Power cord...Quadlink 5 vs Twinlink
I don`t think adding another Quadlink would hurt your sound and if anything might ``balance`` out the rest of the system. To my ears the Quadlink is somewhat ``warmer`` than the Twinlink. Both are very good power cords for the money.happy listening

How to clean Analysis Plus T1 spades ?
I use a silver polishing cloth to clean the ends on my Cardas cables when they become oxidized. These cloths can be purchased at WalMart, Target, and jewerly stores. The dirtier it gets the better it cleans.happy listening 
speaker cables for B&W N802's
Hi Danderson,I use Cardas Neutral Reference bi-wired speaker cables and the Kimber Bi-Focal XL speaker cables with much success. The Cardas cables are ``musical`` when used with my Cardas Golden Reference ic`s, pc`s. The Kimber`s are more of a ``d...
