Line Conditioner - Small (3 outlets or less)
Equi=Core makes an outstanding product. We have both the 1800, and the 300. Both outstanding IMHO.  
Top integrated with MC phono section
LKV Research makes a real nice Integrated with enough power to drive alll but the least efficient speakers. 160 watts per channel. One of the better solid state integrated amps out there. Costing barely more than their entry level phono stage, you... 
Interesting article on audiophiles and audiophilia
Thank you very much for posting this....makes me understand the 'public' better. Fun, and in many ways true. Yes., like many of us, we would custom build our room too. 
Best small used monitors under $1000
Silverline  Minuet, Elac UB5,  and if you are willing to go just a bit over budget, the KEF LS-5o is among the best around at any price in a small room.(That is what I use in my 9x11 room with great results) Any of these could be driven to good ef...

Jazz LP Review: Lyn Stanley's The Moonlight Sessions Vol.1
Lyn Stanley had totally raised the bar IMHO in every way possible. Song choices, arrangements, sound and technical merit are the best I have heard in decades in any musical recording. Everything is painstakingly created to totally transport you in...

Integrated Amplifier with the Good Bass and Extended Highs
Wyred 4 Sound STI-500, or STI-1000. Hegel Rost, H80, H160, or H360. All very compelling solutions depending on budget 2-6k.  
PranaFidelity speakers, what say you?
Prana has a nice floor stander too, as you saw. If you liked his stand mounts....you'll love the floor standers. I heard these at a show prior to this one. Extension is very good for their size. The floor standers extend more and have slightly mor... 
Looking for THE amp to anchor my system, Krell, Plinius or maybe a D
If you do decide on a Class D...Check out Wyred 4 Sound. I have a pair of SX 1000's, power to spare, to drive the least efficient speakers out there. Very liquid and very  'chameleon like' meaning no character of its own, and influenced by the sou... 
Has anyone considered rebuying a speaker you once owned??
If I haven't discovered KEF LS 5o's or Fritz Grove loudspeakers....my redundant purchase would be Vandersteen 1B, or Ci, Had them in college, and I still feel like the sound is state of the art even after 28 years....newer incarnations decades lat... 
Turntable recommendation
VPI Player, Scout Jr, used Scout as well. Rega RP3 or RP6. Project Carbon Esprit edition with acrylic platter upgrade. 
Hey guys,time to can your table. All you need is love!
Just wrong.... they obviously have not heard a , VPI, Rega, Brinkmanship, Monaco..... even the Project essential would eat it for lunch. That would be my prediction..... 
Bookshelf Speaker Recommendations
KEF LS-50 would also be awesome too with the right stuff upstream 
Bookshelf Speaker Recommendations
ELAC Unify 5....  best all around speaker for under 1K IMHO
