Please recommend speakers
I would have also given a +1 for the Maggie LRS, but it appears size matters. If I could take the bass from my Wharefdale Diamond 10.1s (currently back-benched) and put it into my ELAC Debut 2.0 B6.2 speakers that are in my office, I’d be able to...

Short list of musical subwoofers
I can only speak for my Rythmik F12G.  👍 x 10  
Would you sell for cash?
American currency - tangible dead presidents -  is no longer valid.  No. That money in your wallet has always been nothing but a global conspiracy. The "real money" is digital 1s and 0s.  Or, if you prefer, "virtual" money!   It's "virtually" rea... 
Bully pulpits
Keep the gifs coming, nonoise!  Love 'em! Beats trying to engage staff-level cultists in meaningful conversation.  When there's clearly zero attachment to objective reality, what is one to do......? Your earlier observation about zero shame/embr... 
Magnepan, Best midrange?
Like so many things Maggie, the "difficulty" of sub integration is WAY overblown. Agreed. 
System forclassical music
Many possible combinations for the front end, but for speakers I'd suggest Magnepan. 
Best sub for music,
+1 for Rythmik.  Can't beat a well-done servo for musical bass, IMO.As for nothing below 160 Hz, I've got a few words for you:Toccata and Fugue in D Minor (as well as a LOT of pipe organ music, just to name one source). 
Which subwoofer?
I happen to be one who (also) has a Rythmik F12-G paired with Maggie planars (MMGs).  Run through a Parasound P5 preamp and a B&K EX-442 Sonata (350 wpc @ 4 ohms) the sound is..............pleasing.I highly recommend the Rythmik F12-G as a fas... 
Great Recordings, Sonically Speaking - and Why.
For live music, Little Feat’s Waiting for Columbus has always ranked high, along with the epic Jazz at the Pawnshop.I’ve always considered the 2002 Verve SACD release of Getz/Gilberto to be a good recording.Norah Jones' Come Away With Me is a very... 
I really could use some help here.....
Don't let anyone tell you your B&K gear is "junk".  My EX-442 Sonata makes my Maggies sing.  Literally. 
Received a Bill for State Tax on An Amp Bought in Canada Last Year
The orange cultists are certainly providing some good morning amusement too-DAY! *LMFAO while waving a sparkler* 
What Are Your Reference Discs? or Specific Reference Tracks
+1 for Sting's "Ten Summoners Tales".  A stellar collection of well-written, well-played and well-produced music.+1 for Lyle Lovett's "Joshua Judges Ruth" (esp. "Church").+1 for "Jazz at the Pawnshop" (3-SACD 30th Anniversary edition)"Getz/Gilbert... 
Old Amps that can still Kick Butt
I'll run my EX-442 Sonata and modded DH220 until they die or I'm crisp.Whichever comes first.  
eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough.
Longtime eBayer (20 years, 600 transactions, 100% positive feedback).  An increase in scamming “buyers” the last few years, eBay consistently siding with those buyers in disputes the last few years and this new selling policy have finally done it ...
