Mini Systems - Reviews? Best of?

Mr. P.: Yeah, that's the way I'm leaning - given the power spectrum of the Polks. As far as the CD source, I've kinda shied away from the used stuff, although I saw a good Pioneer upconverting DVD/CD player on craigslist for $30. Anyhoo, one way or the other, I think that the amp & speakers are more important to start with. I have to thank all of you again: you woke up that audio quality section in my head that I'd let alone for too long. I feel like an ass for considering a shelf system. I'll keep you posted.

Well, Mr. Peabody & Co.: After shopping around & drooling at Audiogon stuff, I flipped over a few stones & bought the Cambridge Audio 640C v2 in black. I saw the asking price ($349.00) vs. the MSRP ($649.00) & just couldn't pass it up. The 340C was about the same price, so it was pretty much a no-brainer. So much for my CD source.
Next up, HK3390 & Polk Audio RtiA1's.
Question: Any suggestions for interconnects & speaker cables that will fit this system?
(P.S.: I'm running out of rocks...)
