How selective are you?
I agree with quality over quantity. I'm always looking(listening) for new music but if the content doesn't rate close to a 10 forget it. I'm much more lenient when considering recording quality.

Jeremy72,Nirvana was influential when regarding the media(radio-tv-press). Musicians were much less influenced by Nirvana. More talented bandes like Pearl Jam-Soundgarden-The Pixies-Mudhoney-COC and Alice in Chains were much more influential with ... 
Rediscovering Cold Blood
Since Cold Blood was popular before my time, I was first introduced to them from the "Fillmore: Last Days" 2-disc cd about 20 years ago. I originally bought the cd for the Santana, Malo and Quicksilver Messenger Service tracks, but discovered many...

Fed up with people making noise at classical shows
Chadnliz,Your responsible for 21/96 posts! Check with the Audiogon staff if this sets a thread record. Maybe they will send you some party noise makers to bring to your next classical concert! 
Upgrade from Rega P5
If your happy with the Rega P5 give the flagship Rega P9 consideration. It's no exotic beauty queen but many prefer it over tables at the $10k price point. 
First subwoofer for a newbie.
Since your looking for a value based subwoofer($500-$1200)give Epik a serious look. Epik subs have been successfully mated with Magnepans. Says alot about a value based subwoofer!!! 
Am I going to regret the Gallo 3.1s?
Your room(10x9)is to small for the Gallo. If your not against a monitor give the Lehmann Audio ML1(used) a serious look. 
Fed up with people making noise at classical shows
Add, nose blowing-throat clearing-whispering-playing with the concert program-purse rummaging-crinkling candy/gum wrappers and not being able to sit still. I think this covers it. Remember when attending a formal concert, "silence is golden"! 
Fed up with people making noise at classical shows
The cough or sneeze can be annoying. Is it that difficult to control a body function for 60-75 minutes before intermission! Of the close to 100 concerts me and my wife have attended I can't recall either of us having an issue. Are only issue was t...

Audiofeil,I'm unaware that Vietnam is producing quality audio gear. That does not surprise me since Vietnam is producing some of the best quality mainstream clothing!

The Doors(st)album has influenced alternative music from the late 70's thru the 80's. It even influenced grunge 20+ years after it's release. 
Please Advise me on Building a System on a Budget
I would recommend the Denon CX3 Series. The build quality is exceptional. The player is a SACD and the matching receiver is a class D design. Depending on condition $1000 might be enough for both units. This leaves you enough for the Magnepan MMG,... 
guitar solos where less is more
Neil Young-Like a Hurricane. A very long but simple guitar solo that never gets old.
