Starting a new system...

I just found a great deal on some items, and I plan to build a new system around them. What I've got so far are two 1 meter pairs of single-ended Siltech Compass Lake interconnects, a 2 meter pair of Nordost Valhalla speaker cables with spades at both ends and three 2 meter Electraglde Fatboy power cords. Any recommendations on what source components, amplification components, power conditioning equipment and speakers would go well with what I already have? Thanks alot everyone:)

Make sure the amp/s are within about six feet of your speakers and no more than six feet from AC outlet/s. The ideal setup for those Compass Lake ICs is less than three feet between source, preamp, and amp. You could also get two sources and an integrated amp. I know each of those cables and cords will sound best if they are connected to something at both ends.

This has got to be the most inspired search. Most people identify the main components and then match the interconnects, cables and cords accordingly. I have no suggestions but I will watch the recommendations that come in with great interest.
