Dumb question HT bypass
Yes, I reread your posts above and must have not read them correctly the first time. I thought you were connecting your preamp to the AVR then to your amps, my bad. I have found that keeping low level analog and digital signals in separate enclosu... 
Dumb question HT bypass
Ok good luck. It is my opinion that you won't achieve good 2 channel sound that way.   
So done with audiophile fuses
I'm in the process of modifying one of my extra amps. No fuses after the power switch. I haven't had problems blowing fuses, but it WILL be a fire hazard... 
Revox A77 Mk IV Reel to Reel
Ebay might give more exposure, but I'm not going back. I don't like their policies and fees are ultra high. If you're looking to sell quick and don't care if you get ripped off by dishonest buyers, then ebay. If you're looking to keep $$ and want ... 
Why do we want to distortions?
I don't agree, it's impedance that is important for tube amps. From what I've experienced, tube amps don't like low impedance. Yes newer speakers typically have lower impedance than older ones, but tubes play well with 8 ohms or more. Are there sp... 
Plastic Nobsound? Says Ecstasy Prop
No, not sure... Aluminum not bad, plastic trash. 
Martin Logan BalanceForce 210 vs JL audio E112
Well, maybe. My Sunfire 12" is rated down to 16Hz. at 116dB in a room. To me, the e110's go lower than the Sunfire. Since you have ML's, maybe you want to stay with ML subs to match. The PBK sounds like the first logical step. 
Noise issues that can’t be corrected.
Soon, I hope, gas powered lawn equipment will be illegal... They say it's coming in CA.

Thanks for the education atmasphere. One can never have enough knowledge. 
Martin Logan BalanceForce 210 vs JL audio E112
I have some JL e110's and have heard both. The e112 has an even higher output and I'm using with some vintage JBL which are loud. The e110 has about the same output as my older Sunfire 12" which I also love. ML didn't have the ultra deep base to 1... 
Turntable Isolation
What are the gold coins going to do? Make it more attractive for thieves? 
Martin Logan BalanceForce 210 vs JL audio E112
Yes, JL audio is much better. Since you're in an apartment, your neighbors will want to choke you. You'll need to spend a lot on isolation platforms to avoid eviction. If you put 2 sets of 4 Nobsound springs, it might support the sub sufficiently....

Are your speakers in wall type or free standing? 
Open Baffle Opinions - I Won't go back to Boxed Speakers Evr Again (maybe....)
Sounds to me like you're doing it correctly. No L-pads an absolute MUST.  Would you consider no passive crossover components in the midrange? I like an active crossover in the critical 250 Hz. to 4 kHz. range. I like your approach for the tweeter,...
