3-4 dB dip at crossover region: what should I listen for to hear it?
You don’t need a spl meter and generators, you just need to listen to a frequency sweep. Many audio test albums have those tracks.  
Borresen Loudspeakers
Don’t forget that Børresen speakers are always demoed with 150K of Ansuz cabling.   And their bass and placement is really tailored to big rooms, just like the Raidhos Michael used to design.   
can subwoofers make things worse?
The cheap power supply in the sub may contaminate your grid.  
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
I believe Qobuz pays artists more than Tidal. The majority owner of Tidal is also Block inc which does not deserve my appreciation. That and the rap are reasons to avoid Tidal.        
Indispensable Tool!
Been using the Densen Demagic, it’s been around for a long time. Sometimes it affects the highs a bit, sometimes not.  
Electronics for Harbeths -- $5-10K
I hope you have the Harbeths on Tonträger stands, because that’s the first thing to do with them.   
Preamp for a GaN-FET amp...

Stop for a moment thinking about yourself. Think of the speakers. Then you understand it’s the back wall.   
I stream 24/7. Do you?
Don’t almost all equipment have a standby switch nowadays?   
Does the Audio press ever excite you anymore?
Do the words  full loom, giant killer, cavernous, totally non-fatiguing, musical still appear as often as in the 1990’s?  
Recommend me a DAC under 3k
I think the question begs for a streaming function which does not leave many options. Those from Lumin and Auralic come to mind. Lumin’s software is solid a used T2 or T1 which is easier to find.   
Gustard R26 on sale
In EU you can’t beat Audiophonics prices. No reason to buy from China.   
I have perfected my network for the nth time
@singingg   Elliott Carter's Horn concerto on the Bridge label? Wow, you have great taste, I agree.  
IsoAcoustics GAIA II isolators on Solid Steel SS-6 Stand
The angle of those stands’ legs do not suit Gaia feet. ISO acoustic feet are all supposed to stand straight.
