Straightwire crescendo or xlo sig 3 interconnect
I have the Crescendos and love them. I had the Nordost Buldars and they were good, but the Crescendos were more open, extended, and the sound stage was just amazing. I am sorry I have not heard the XLO's.

Thiel CS2.4 and suggestion on preamp
I hope you enjoy the cardas. I have always wanted to try them but have had touble finding them used while in the market for some. I have read great reviews for them as I am sure you have as well. Please post your thoughts on them once you use them... 
Thiel CS2.4 and suggestion on preamp
I would consider replacing the tributaries interconnects. I used the silver top modle with locking rcas and was never happy with the sound. While good for the money, I had a hard time with the hard, brittle sound they passed. I know this was not r...

good used speaker

good used speaker
You hit the nail on the head so to speak. I am or have not been blown away by any one aspect of them (Q65's). I have been reseraching Klipsch RB-75's, Vienna acoustics Hayden grands, monitor audio various modles. I would like a smallish floor stan... 
straight wire Maestro and Maestro II signal flow?
Thank you for your response. I contacted Steve from Straightwire (found him here under similar post) and was informed that the cables should be marked. I looked with a high powered surefire flashlight and found the markings as described by Steve. ...
