New fantastic room but system pissing off neighbor
Some posters have advised you to remove your subwoofer which makes the most sense. However, I don't see where you mentioned that you were using a subwoofer. Are you using a subwoofer? 
Has anyone ever cried listening to your system
Just the other night I thought I was going to cry while listening to "Countdown to extinction" and I was not quite prepared for this type of musical experience! Can someone recommend which tissues are best to use when wiping one's tears. I was gra... 
New fantastic room but system pissing off neighbor
Dweller had a good idea to ask if you could listen from their apt/loft which would put you in their position. It might be a good idea to turn the tables by inviting them to your place. They can become friends/allies instead of just neighbors. You ... 
McIntosh C2300
Lou, before you make any purchases of Mcintosh equipment you need to read this post from a few months ago. Type in mcintosh warranty in the search field and you will see it.

Actually, no one has shed a tear yet, but frequently my wife does have a strong emotional response to the music. Just last night she screamed from the bedroom to lower the volume so she can hear the television. Women!!

Lacee, I went from Kimber 8TC, to Nordost Red Dawn & SPM, to Cardas Golden Reference and am currently using Speltz Anticable. Maybe it's not on this post but there are a lot of posts on audiogon in which folks are giving a thumbs up to Anticab... 
How does one get off the merry-go-round?
I think one could get off the merry go round for a while but if you are a music lover and an audiophile, you are still in the amusement park! You may not be on the rides, but you are reading magazines, posts, etc. and are always thinking about equ... 
Is cable synergy important?
There are also many people that believe that all components should be from the same manufacturer!? There are no sure fire solutions. I agree with SNS, whatever works, works! 
What's the best sounding equipment racks?
You can't audition a rack, so I would not replace the rack until the room is finished and you have a chance to listen to your equipment in the new room. Everything may sound so good, you may not feel the need to replace it. Just my .02 cents. 
Biamping, bass and amplifier type.
I agree with Bob, save yourself the cost of an additonal amp and get a quality subwoofer. A subwoofer will produce way more bass than a biamped speaker. 
When did the Hi-Fi sound mature?
For sheer sound quality on any level, the biggest step from puberty to adulthood was supposed to be the CD player, but now it seems that puberty was maturity as the ultimate in sound seems to still be the turntable? 
The Economy.. will hi end audio mfgs lower prices?
High End Audio is not going to lower their prices EVER!!!They have an image to uphold and would probably rather shoot themselves first, much the way the recording industry has imploded on itself. It is possible that prices will come down, but only... 
EAT KT-88 tubes
Exelchuck, I am sure they sound spectacular, but certain factors have to be weighed, like the fact that it would cost me $4,800 to retube my amp with the EAT tubes!!
