Lev: Major homework ahead of you. I have the non cast version of this amp. From personal experience I'll warn you that the FPB 200 is very fussy about interconnects and speaker wires.
Skip lower end HT's, NBS, and Transparent. The AQ Python (bal) interconnect I settled on beat out 8 other contenders including more expensive Tranparent MW+, NBS King Serpent and Kimber 1130 (silver). Second best was another Kimber 1120 (copper) but I already use 1 pair in the system and 2 pairs seemed to emphasize the midrange slightly. Didn't get to try Cardas but they would have been my next option if the Python hadn't worked out.
I'm also breaking in new AQ Gibraltar speaker wires in place of some Kimber 8 TC. The AQ's have a smoother midrange than the 8 TC's but aren't the last word in detail, at least yet (less than 50 hours on them).
Happy Home Trials
