what cd player ?
I bought a Emotiva ERC-4 to replace a old MH cdp.  It has inputs for a digital signal if you want to use it for streaming.  Built like a tank, around $600 new.  Great sound  
What is the current retail cost of your reference system?
About 150 % of what i paid, all used mostly for 1/2 price except for the CDP  
Warm and accurate bookshelves that can handle volume
Ref 3A de Capo?    
Bookshelf speakers that pair well with Decware ZMA
I be third to suggest Ref 3A de Capos, use them with my Decware Mini Torii as well as a Primaluna PL2 and no trouble driving them, good bass clean detailed  
Fritz Carrera or other possibilities!
Take a look at the Ref 3A de Capos  detailed rich sound dont need a lot of power i run them in a room a bit bigger than yours off a 4 watt Deware amp  
Monitors for 14 x 20 Room
look for used Ref 3A de Capos  piano black can be found around 1K    
Recommendation for integrated amplifier for Paradigm Studio 20s v.5
Go tubes, a nice used amp with 30-40 wpc  
TT quandary
What can you do to upgrade?  You have a great rig with a great tonearm.  The mk4 is pretty nice.  Can you afford to buy a prime and compare side by side?  Get a nicer phono amp? I have a mk4 but just with a Jelco 250st arm, upgrading the tonearm ...

Aural Hifi store in Denver just relocated to a fantastic space
Anyone use them for restoration/repair work?  I have a MR-71 needs some work  
Best sounding CD player
@dvdgreco We stream all the time but don't use the streaming services.  we stream radio stations like WWOZ in NOLA and others there is an only online blues station we love too   many other free choices for music online

Decware    
Tube Amp for Devore O/96
A nice Decware amp should drive those fairly well  
how were copies of vinyl made in "third-party" countries
My wife being a professor of German history means we spend a lot of time in Berlin.  Love buying DDR records like on the Amiga and Eterna labels.  Not the best SQ but fun to see what they allowed.  
Primaluna or not Primaluna
@simna I using 92db Ref 3A de Capos   had them with the primaluna and they sounded good but the decware sounds much better   do they blast the house down-no not with 4 watts but detailed rich good bass   i used the primaluna with B&W 602...
