Redbook CD players, vs. Multi-Format players
With the world of streaming out there, I'd encourage you to go with an external DAC, perhaps with a built-in streamer, that also plays your CD's well. I will say that if you have been listening to vintage gear, come up to a DAC built in the last 1...

Everything a crossover has to do ...
Thanks @asvjerry - I just described a type of technology and gave some idea of it's uses and parameters. It's physics, so I'm not really going to engage with the peanut gallery on it. It will be useful to those who like to talk speaker tech and DI...

Time to buy a class D amp?
I went from a Parasound A21 to Class D, no difference in sound.With no difference in sound, the Class D was a better amp. Cheaper, cooler, less expensive to run. The Luxman I replaced it with beat them both, at 6x the price.  
Which to Upgrade first? My Amplifier or Speakers?
The room.  
Anyway to improve the sound of Tannoy Saturn s6?
First things first. Make sure all the drivers are working. Specifically the mid-range, put your hand on it, make sure it's moving while playing music. Lightly of course! Hard to do with these units but see if you hear anything coming out of the tw... 
Congratulations Atmasphere!
@almarg Thank you.  So long as we all agree you were being completely unreasonable. :)
