Help me find WARM speakers a la Sonus Faber
I went with the Parsial Ovations. They sound amazing, and relatively easy to drive. Thank you all for your advice. 
Klipsch Palladium's
They are great speakers, IMHO. My listening room is just too big, and the Heresy's are too wide.

One other slight problem with the Cremona or Olympica's is that they come a stand (rake) that is pretty wide, and I do not know if I can purchase an alternative stand, or if I can ply them off of the stand.

EBM: jump on which one?

Here is a new option: my dealer can get me a great deacon Klipsch Palldiums (Which I think are beautiful). Or, a guy who lives close to me is selling Verity's Audio Parsifol.

This is why I love this site…great responses. I could go with the Cremona's or Cremona M's for approx. half the price of the Olympicas; that is tempting. And if I don't like them, I could sell them without taking a huge hit. But, the Olympica's, i... 
Looking for Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington LP
ROUNDMOUND: I just went through Gemm. I found several versions of the record, but none indicated that they were the red vinyl. Where did you see the red version? And thank you for your response.

GOheelz (presumably UNC tarhills), I am interested. How can I direct message you?

PBNAUDIO: that is the one I am looking for. 
Modern day female jazz recommendations
Diana Krall's best hits album is really good. Melody Gardot and Madeliene Peyroux are also great. Heather Rigdon is another great singer who is not very well known. 
The State of Jazz
FROGMAN: I completely agree with your post. And perhaps I should have been more clear. But I was reflecting upon the fact that the majority of my favorite songs (straight no chaser; ruby my dear; basin street blues, etc.) were composed many decade...
