I have a Surround system set up, but often listen to 2 channel when listening to music, I had a nice Ayre V3 amp and Monocle XL Kimber speaker cables on it for a while, but the friend is finally taking it back after I was fortunate enough to use them for a year - The bad side to this, is I got kicked in the but with less than desirable sound from just the reciever - My equipment - Pioneer VSX-56txi KEF XQ5's (left and right) Monster Z2 Biwire cables on the KEF's - ( I'm starting to think that Single leads with Jumpers is the way to go)
