WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR?
@tony1954 , good point, LOL.    
How to connect susb to my system
@leog2015 , I looked up that preamp, and it appears you could use a set of the "main output" xlr’s to the subwoofers. Very nice system, by the way.

Then you can either chain them in between the amplifier and the speakers (using speaker cables)... OR... Plug them into the back of your preamp via the RCA/XLR connections. Using the RCA/XLR connections will maintain full range sound to your sp...

It's the internet....serious business.

Well, do your subs have speaker connections, as well as RCA/XLR jacks?

@calvinj I find these are usually the "measurements only" folks who are seeking confirmation that their equipment is better, just as good as, or best because some guy on YouTube with a multi-meter gave it a Pink Panther stamp of approval, LOL. ...

ISO - grit, texture, decay, life from snares and bass drums
@tunefuldude , Beryllium tweeters are good, as long as that’s the sound you’re going for. Very crisp and precise. The OP mentioned snare and cymbal pop. Can't really get better than Be for that, imo.    
ISO - grit, texture, decay, life from snares and bass drums
What I am getting from this is Be. Beryllium. Not good for you, but "sharp". You'll be happy with the decay, trust me....  
Anyone with similar equipment
I've owned Parasound equipment.  I'm a Synergistic Research fan. I think even their entry level cables would pair well. I'd stay away from silver cables. Maybe give usedcables.com a look.   
Your best ''outstanding'' products in last 5 yrs?
Let’s see....best bang for the buck in the last 5 years. Rythmik G22 subwoofer. Beastly, musical, articulate, and tight. 2x12 servo subs in a piano black finish for under $2k. Rather remarkable, actually. Very pleasantly surprised. Also picked u... 
What percentage of digital vs. analog?
I'm 100% digital, baby! LOL. I have (literally) thousands of CD's, and that's all I listen to. I don't even have my streamer hooked up. I probably have 3000 Classical CDs. I have friends with turntables, and some of them sound quite good. But t... 
Maybe the Journey is Over?........Well......
Upgrading can be fun. Expensive, but fun. Enjoy.
