Simple question, probably stupid

Front or Back wall diffusers
Without more info, you only will receive useless advice. Need to know speaker position, listening position, etc.    
What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first?
You have not provided nearly enough info to receive an intelligent suggestion.    
Is simpler better?
In a word, yes.  
Dedicated Room
As above.  The room is critical.  If you could get the room to 12 feet, then you would be in much better shape to place the speaker off the short wall.  Start with the Cardas placement rule:  speakers out one third into the room, listening chair a... 
Dedicated Room
What is limiting the width of the room??    
$50k - $80k Budget…Opinions please.
You might consider a financial planner as being more of a priority than your next 80k luxury item.  I mean, to pay off family debt you get a fraction of your systems value, and a year later drop 80k on a luxury item.  That math does not add up.  W... 
Omega speakers -- mostly sold out, all the time?
@oddiofyl  In your smaller room I have to believe the Omegas will perform very well indeed.  I use mine in a second system where the room is much larger and is open to the upper level of our home and with a 4wpc SET they generate wonderful rich so... 
Review on AricAudio Motherlode MKII preamplifier
Nice review Teajay. Was good to see you still have the Tektons in your stable. They do let upstream changes manifest themselves, don’t they? A number of reviewers change their "references" so often it makes one wonder. Glad you have not fallen int... 
Omega speakers -- mostly sold out, all the time?
@oddiofyl   I think you will be pleased.  Be patient.  Delivery will probably be later than promised.  Explore different veneer options.  Louis can do virtually anything you want.  He likes to try veneers out of the ordinary.  I love my monitors i... 
There's No Question
@benmeadows My pathway to the DI’s was similar to yours. I transitioned from the Magnepan 1.7’s. I enjoyed that speaker very much. A classic. It did many but not all things well. Unlike you I did not have any issues placing mine. Roughly used th... 
Fritz Speakers
The drivers used in Fritz speakers are high quality and relatively expensive.  Then factor in the cost of a real wood veneers on the cabinets, assembly time.  Well, the cost is not at all out of line.  The manufacturers you need to question are o... 
Omega speakers -- mostly sold out, all the time?
@hilde45    I called Louis over a year ago.  Long story short, he custom made me a pair of Super 7 MkII's in Padauk veneer to match my Erhard Ray SET.  It took several months.  I regret sending Louis a grumpy email on the delay.  After the speake... 
Warmer class D amps for magnepan?
Unfortunate integrated amps are not on your radar.  The Marantz KI Ruby would fit the bill perfectly.  
Wattgate Connector Measurements
Eric, this is EXACTLY the point I was trying to make.  The point of maximum contact on the Wattgates is all wrong.  Blows me away that this stuff makes it to market.  I do not have a degree in engineering--but I could have designed a plug far supe...
