Large listening room
I am in 14X24 dedicated room and use VMPS with open baffle mid range ribbons with lots of success. 
Your three favorite audio dealerships?
There are so many bad ones and so few in general that its hard to pick 3, making it to stores in driving distance with disability also adds to the challenge. I have been to enough bad ones though to notice a really good one so the only offering I ... 
Line level vs speaker inputs
Line level if your reciever/pro has a sub output, speaker input if it doesnt is how I see it but I am no sub expert, just a user and a fan. 
Help me out... can't figure this out
Are you sure this would happen again? Every once in a while something just happens that cant be explained and never happens again. Does the 2 channel amp have gain adjustments in the front heat sinks like my 6 channel Rotel does? Check those if it...

I didnt miss any point just taking the high road instead of blanket Bose bashing..its like picking on a retarted person.

Bose isnt that bad for the casual consumer but its way overpriced and delivers very little but I can see how one could surprise and get you by but knowing that this is temporary is helping your opinion. 
New preamps making new claims.
If you have the cash the new stuff is better, if you dont than the new stuff isnt that much better than what you have to worry about buying...right? Or is it just me?

Which Universal Remote to Use?
Glad I could help! 
Sub-woofer/ Source for MAgnepan MG 1.6s
Vandersteen subs sound great with Maggies and dont break the bank. I have heard 1.6 with dual Vandy subs sound far better than the price the charge would lead you to believe. 
Life without a remote
While I would love to have a remote (being disabled has it problems) I dont have one for 2 channel but once you get to know your system its not that big of deal, being in a dedicated space where you can hide out makes it easier too. My Sonic Front... 
Which Universal Remote to Use?
What ever you do DONT get the Harmony 1000, it was rushed to market very flawed, my dad paid $500 for it and he gave up on it after only a couple days....its terrible. BTW I programmed it and I have alot of experience with remotes, it just doesnt ... 
Swapping Rotel RCD971 to Luxman D500xs..wise move?
Why trade a good cd player for an older unit that is not only going to cost you more money, it may not sound as good or be reliable and you admit you are more into Vinyl....why not save money and spend it on music (what a novel idea!)
