if it is possible to use and integrated amp with any of the Vandys that require the use of a hi-pass filter. The hi-pass filter can insert to the integrated tape loop or pre-out/main-in.

If the M-150's input impedance is 200kohm, a 0.008uF or 0.01uF cap as a high pass filter will work. http://www.learningaboutelectronics.com/Articles/High-pass-filter-calculator.php#answer1

cost of new ones are a staggering $1295.00. https://img.usaudiomart.com/uploads/large/1141365-a2834c09-vandersteen-m5hp-crossover.jpg If you can find the schematic, you can clone one and save $1200  
Passive Bookshelf Speaker Selection
Speakers SHOULD be HAND TUNED to your ears. Hearing aid, YES. Speakers, NO! Every person in the listening room have their own ears.  
Fuses in the 3 speed SME PSU
If you don’t hear the difference, consider yourself fortunate you don’t need to spend the money to upgrade fuses and buy more music instead. No one need to have "golden ears" to enjoy this hobby!  Could be my ears, or maybe all my electronics have... 
Fuses in the 3 speed SME PSU
Fuses are directional? So what will happen if those fuses installed in wrong direction on the turntable PSU? 
Accuphase DP-560
In this case, I want to change to 220-240v. J1 = 100v J2 = 120v J3 = 220-240v  So if you want to change input voltage to 120V, just simply move the jumper wire to J2 or move it to J3 for 220V-240V. I didn’t see any standby transformer or J4 and J5... 
Have you ever used a separate speaker selector unit to audition speakers? Would you?
Anyone concerned about not being able to compare or judge because they will forget what they heard in a few minutes should stop and think about that. Ask yourself, if you really can't remember, then why would you care? That isn't the issue, t...

@foolishman, Can you provide picture of DP-560 power board? 
Trying to fix specific issues with my listening area
This is a very common floor plan in South Florida.https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1KFEgtukOSNj59e6Dz9Q_73dMvEyO-L66w7hzK138V4E/edit?usp=sharing What is the room dimension? 
Voltage conversion of Accuphase E-650
Desolder K3, K4 and solder it to K5, K6 position will convert input voltage from 100V to 120V. Again, I recommend use a dim bulb tester for first time power up the amplifier after voltage conversion. Hope this helps. 
Voltage conversion of Accuphase E-650
If you can post a picture of the power selection board, maybe I can provide some help on the voltage conversion. BTW, have you completed the A-48 conversion? 
How to connect multiple sets of speakers?
Since your AVR has 7 channels of amplification, connect one pair of speakers to 'speaker B', one pair to surround L and R, one pair to surround back L and R. Using '7.1 channel stereo' mode to activate all speakers.
