ARC Reference 6 or Cary SLP 05 with upgrade?
My mentor love's the Cary 05. If I stayed with separates I would have it. At near double the price is the Ref6E. A friend just bought one and he loves it. I doubt you would be displeased with either.  Nice sleuthing.

(Brutally) Honest Audio Reviews

Thoughts wanted for new speaker design
If you can sell a bookshelf at $4,000 which is a good as Joseph Pulsars,I would buy a pair. 86db with a 5 1/2 woofer + tweeter. He uses SEAS.Are they too pricey to meet the $4k price. Only goes to down to 40hz butsomehow it seems much lower.

System Upgrade
A 30 day old Leben 600 will likely go at very close to full priceas they are made to order often times. If you unload the HL5+you will take a $2k hit. I would get on the Harbeth owners forum and get an answer straight from god's mouth.
