What is best way to learn to build own equipment?
Wow Vapor1! Are you kidding? If I could, I'd be breaking your door down tomorrow. 
My amp has no faults
Mapman gave the kind of answer I'm looking for. Just a general opinion commensurate with your experience over the years. An amp that seems to be "all there" with enabling factors taken for granted. I've listened to a lot of amps over the years and... 
Are Monoblocks better than Multi-channeled amps??
Balanced configuration is where you'll probably realize an improvement there. 
What Amp with KEF 105.2?
I still have my 105/2s. I ran them with a pair of Meridian 105 monos. 100wpch. minimum. 7db headroom. I had no problem driving those 86db pigs. The key here is current. I still have the 105s too. Awesome amps with serious bottom end control. Good ...

Too many maybes. Your first premise is likely the correct one. My wife here in Canada works for a well known outfit that converts full size vans into motorhomes. This company has been on a downward spiral for the last ten years due to exactly the ...

Do you ever just listen to music
The cup is half empty or half full, right? If the system is great, you'll focus on attributes. If not, it's like Elizabeth said. But focus you will. Some people have ultra hi end gear to whom this is not a hobby. Clearly this thread or forum for t... 
Amplifier for Quads
The 25/25 is considered the best match for the 57s by a lot of people. Why, I don't know. There are a lot better amps than the Bedini, even vintage.I can't speak to the voltage preference thing, but not only is he using a high current amp but he's...

The thing about power is you can only have too little. You can't have too much. Power is the best way to protect your speakers. 
Do you ever just listen to music
Are you all being honest right now? When I'm in my van conducting business and the radio's on, I can't help but take note when a SACD recording comes on. It's obvious. It doesn't mean I don't go on to enjoy it. I don't know where "there" is but I ...
