Amplifier for Tekton speakers
I have enjoyed the Decware Mini Torii with Tekton speakers. Mini Torii offers a lot of flexibility with tubes to tailor the amp to your preferences. Really nice build quality as well. 
Suggestions for a tube integrated under $3000
Agree with the Decware Zen Torii mkiii suggestion. Extremely well built with dual mono design and tube regulation. It has beautiful tone and real engaging presentation. 
Removing tube from EE Minimax Dac
Thanks guys.... took the top cover off to get a better grip and it worked... bit of a workout though... 
Have 300b MB want a killer pair of Hi-Eff speakers
Not knowing your budget, I would suggest any of the offerings from Horning on the high end. For more modest budget I think Pi loudspeakers (e.g., Pi Four) are a great value. Lots of PHY recommendations here, and I agree that they are a good choice... 
Need Blues Rec--burn the house down guitar stuff
Try Tommy Castro - "Can't Keep a Good Man Down" 
Best surprisingly good value component
I have been spending some time experimenting with Wyred 4 Sound SX 500 mono amps and wanted to get a taste of some sweet tubes in front of them. Not wanting to spend a lot to experiment, I ordered a Space-Tech QA-001 mk2 preamp (about $500 new). I...

Monitor speaker that will stop the Quest?
Lenhan Audio ML1. I have never experienced such attention to detail and quality in any product that I have purchased. Everything from the the crossover to the cabinet material to the grills to the flight cases they came in is first class; and they... 
Spendor Classic 9/1 Speaker AMP Suggestions
Congrats on your purchase of a great speaker. Agree with JDmeyers that the McIntosh 275 sounds great with the 9/1's. Also, as I think back to the great systems I heard over the years, one that truly stands out was the Spendor 9/1s paired with Cary... 
Changing to bookshelf speakers. Recommendations?
I second the Lenehan ML-1 suggestion. I took a chance on them and have really been blown away by their performance 
Best amp s for 11x14 room under $4000 new/used ?
You could get a pair of Monarchy SE-100 Mark 2's (or SM70 pros or the 250's if you need more power) along with their NM24 Tube DAC/Tube line and be under your $4000 budget. I have listened to predominantly tube amps for the last 19 years and recen... 
Bookshelf/Stand-Mount 3-Way Monitors: Need Help
Lenehan ML1 would work well for you. It has all the qualities you love in the ATC's and can punch below 40 Hz. 
Tight accurate midfield monitor pair suggestions
May want to look at the Lenehan ML1. There are a few testimonials from sound engineers on the Lenehan Audio website. You can also inquire and talk to Mike Lenehan about his thoughts regarding using them for your purpose. He is awesome to deal with.
