Twich,
I too would love to see some pictures when you get them all setup.
As for advice on cables, I would wait.
First get your stuff setup then let it break in for at least 40 hours playing before you make any changes/modifications to your setup. A few things will be obvious by that time, your speakers will start to loosen and open up and sound much better. At that time you will be able to tell, if any, where your perceived deficiencies are and decide if different cables are necessary.
Dan, aka DTB300, has done a lot of painful research with cables and may have some helpful ideas. I think I am the only one who does not really care for Audioquest except for the higher priced (and out of my price range) cables. I prefer Tara Labs for cables but I also own CLSiiZ's which are a different animal all together. Audiouest for me are too bright but with a hibred design like the Vantage it may be fine.
I guess my advice is............. "patience Grasshopper and enjoy the journey because it is half the fun"
