I have a basic cable that I found in my drawer for this but I am wondering if a better cable will enhance the sound quality? The cable I have works but I dont know where it is from, etc. I listen to GRAD Rs1 and headroom micro amp. Sounds good,but just wondering if the cable can be a weak link...

Currently I have a Headroom Micro amp that I use with my GRADOs.I got this a few years ago as a beginner. Just wondering about any other better sounding portable amps out there that pairs well with my GRADOS, no price limit. I listen to alot of different music but mostly jazz, classical, vocals...

Check out Hed Kandi out of th eUK They have alot of house, much of it with disco backdrop, I love this stuff. You can hear samples of all tracks too.

Great rig! I have a set of a few good components and have always wondered if the cables make a noticeable difference. How much difference did they make for you?

I might be out of it but is there any online store where you can download entire CDs but in lossless formats? The biggest store I used to spend hours in (TOWER) no longer exists and I hate ordering online and having to wait for CDs to be shipped.

I dont know if this qualifies specifically as electronica but try Metro Station and Medic Droid. for Trance I would definitely get some DJ Doboy although I wouldn't know where to find it in any lossless format, only found it using a certain software that rhymes with the word "RhymeTire"...
