Gotta admit, even though I'm from Michigan I never picked up much Theo...
I've had his First Floor CD for a long time and rinse the hell out of his 'late dub' of Get On Up but there's a seemingly endless library of singles on Sound Signature alone not to mention all the other labels he's released for... Can someone point me in the direction of the best cuts to start listening to?

He has such an extensive back catalogue, dive in anywhere and you're bound to experience a great variety of styles & sounds. There is plenty to satisfy your ears. fassyman's list is a great starting point
Go to discogs and start listening from the beginning

it doesnt matter where you start but i think the more you listen to his stuff the more you will understand and relisten the music you did not understand in the beginning. enjoy your journey

This really. I mean, if you _need_ a place to start, I'd highly recommend Sound Sculptures vol. 1.

i'm going to treat this like an appreciation thread.. get his ugly edits too
honestly didn't know this tune was made by theo.. the only thing that gave it away was the dirty dirty drum
then there's the missing you remix, the losoul remix and a shit ton of originals
