Have you asked yourself this question?
it's also a good occasion for everyone to list what they have and don't use. The best of times!  
What percentage of digital vs. analog?
so many people wanting to ditch their record collection, where can they be bought?  
Getting into the music
yes, I understand and can relate. On the plus side, I find myself to enjoy listening in ways I haven't in the past. It's a deeper, richer experience with better sound.   
Have you asked yourself this question?
I listen to vinyl 90% of the time. I listen to music twice as much since I went back to analogue. My system is a joke compared to @hifinut51 's but it's still pure joy, I can't wait to put on a record, from my again, way smaller (~100) collection.... 
"I'm a believer"
I spend three times as much time being entertained on my $5000 “B” system than my $50,000 “A” system.  In that case, perhaps you could swap the labels

Which Would You Choose?
@jetter you cannot seriously tell us that anything under 10K is not junk  
"The Ultra High-End Speaker."
Others would suggest that, when it comes to speakers, that the "Ultra High-End" sound can only be achieved by megabuck speakers costing 50K, 100K, 250k and beyond   which one? I am confused.  
Which Would You Choose?
MoFi ≠ Musical Fidelity  
Entry CD player question?
I have a marantz cd6004 and it has served me well. My components are comparable to yours, I doubt you would see a decisive difference.  The big one I noticed is resale value, Rotels go for about 50% than Marantz CD players.  Obviously you have a... 
Do you think driver “break in” is real?
Part of the myth is so you won't return it immediately and you'll get used to the sound of your new speaker I can't imagine getting used to a speaker I don't like. I can imagine a speaker growing on me though that I like from the moment I hook ... 
What happened to my room acoustics
the simplest solution is usually the best. I would pull the speakers forward 1 foot and move closer 3-4 feet. What are your speaker stands and height? To me the gel seems an ok solution
