Slow down buddy. you have yourself a stereo (two channel) receiver. The receiver and the CD player are both a few years old.

The following are true of your current set-up:
1)You will benefit very little from fancy cables (put that money in savings for equipment upgrades).
2)You can not do surround sound and do not need a center channel speaker.
3)If the mood struck you, you could add a subwoofer to your current set-up via speaker-level inputs.

No offence intended whatsoever, but you may want to hold off on new equipment purchases until you learn a little more about the various capabilities of different peices of audio gear. Find a local dealer that is willing to spend a little time teaching you the basics and buy something from him. A good dealer can save you lots of money by selling you equipment that fills your needs.

Good luck!
