GoldenEar Triton Reference for a large room...
I had the GE References about 4 years ago and traded them in about a year later.  They were fine for HT but the highs were very fatiguing with music.   
How Do You Store Your Record Collection? Recommendations Please!
Not cheap but expandable.  I would probably never mount vinyl to a wall.https://www.boltz.com/entertainment-furniture/lp-storage.html 
CD player reliability.... good and bad.
Are any top loading CD+SACD players currently made? Ayon had a top loading SACD player a few years ago.  It may not be currently in production but it looks like USA Tube Audio still has it. 
Speaker Upgrade Recommendation for Current Analog System - under $10,000 Budget
I had the Golden Ear Reference.  They were good for home theater.  Not as good for 2 channel listening.  To me they were a little boomy and fatiguing in the high frequencies.  I am now running (and prefer) the Tekton Encores which are in your pric...

Tekton Design Moab

Tekton Design Moab
My Encores were  right about 4 months from order to delivery.  That was during the black Friday rush and the holidays but it did take some time.  Doesn't really matter.  They sound great and I will be selling my Wilson Yvettes as soon as I can get... 
Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions
I received a pair of Encores with a Be upgrade for the main tweeter about 6 weeks ago. I had a job change after they were ordered (more work, less money, but I am grateful to be working) so I have not had the time or energy to do a proper A/B ve...

Upgrade advice from Parasound P5/A23 combo to an integrated amp solution?
If you are still interested in the Levinson 5805 let me know.  I have had one for the last six months but ended up going to tubes on that setup, so it is in good shape.I am new here as well so I have not posted it yet.  I was planning on using it ...
