Power Cords: A Skeptic Looking to Dabble...
Mceljo, I didn't miss anything, and if you think the power available at your current wall outlet is adequate, then I agree with this recommendation,It sounds as if you are looking for reasons NOT to try a power cord. I would say by all means then,...

It appears that medical marijuana card is working out extremely well for you. 
MusicalFidelity A300 integrated: Worth the money?
Forgot that I also had an A5 for a short time, and it was my least favorite. Keep in mind that the A5 and A3.5 were built in Taiwan, and the A3, A300, A3.2, and A308 were built in England.Before the change over to the Audiogon format, it seemed th...

A water large water pipe has the potential for more water to flow through it, but if a smaller pipe has adequate capacity to carry all of the available water then having a larger pipe wouldn't result in a benefit, but would have more potential.Tru... 
MusicalFidelity A300 integrated: Worth the money?
I have owned 3 MF integrateds, an original X series, A3, and A308. The X series and A3 were very close, but the A308 was definitely a step up. I'm sure the A300 would fall between the A3 and A308, but probably be closer to the A308. One thing for ... 
Musical Fidelity A300 Integrated
My experience with Nordost Cables, Blue Heaven and SPM, is that they were lean in the bass and a somewhat bright/harsh in the treble. A good friend got the same results with his Red Dawn.As far as the bi-wire, myself and a few friends tried this a... 
Power Cords: A Skeptic Looking to Dabble...
It makes absolutely no sense to me that smaller AWG power cords would outperform larger AWG power cords.And why would it matter that the power cord be 12, 10, or 9 gauge when it is the last 6 feet to the amp with 30, 40, 50 feet or more of 14 gaug...

I am very familiar with your amp and speakers, and the A300 should have plenty of power to drive the 804's. I don't see bi-amp doing anything to calm the treble. What is your source, interconnects, and speaker cables? A change there makes more sen... 
Integrated tube amp has no bass Cayin A50T
Energy's recommended power for the speaker is 30-120wpc with an 88db sensitivity, so I'm guessing they are probably better suited for a solid state amp, or a much more powerful tube amp. As Mechans stated, make sure you do not use triode mode.

but I'm certainly not planning to get a dedicated line for this project.Dedicated lines should be the first step for power upgrades. Think of it as the power cord to the system from the service panel. Typical house wiring will be 14 gauge wire wit... 
Connection help
Jameswei is on the right track, as he explained why I as asking about RCA preouts on the HT receiver, however when using the HT receiver, the source used will need to be connected to an input on the HT receiver. If you are using a universal player... 
MIT Terminator 4 Bi Wire?
MIT cables work well for many, and some love them. As with any cable, it depends on the system. Personally, I am not a fan of cables with the network box. 
Connection help
Does your HT receiver have preouts, or why not list your equipment? Knowing the components is necessary to determine your options. 
Power Supply Options - Pre Amp and Power Amp
The first step should be dedicated lines with upgraded outlets, at least one for analog, and one for digital. 
Integrated Feeding Integrated
Running the second integrated wide open may not be a good idea. Also, there may be other ways to interface the two amps. Would you care to list your equipment and how it is connected?
