Which speakers will fill 5,000 cubic ft coherently
I'm in a room similar to yours. Cathedral type ceilings...about 18ft hight. My Wilson Watt Puppy 8's are pretty awesome.I have had Wilsons in smaller rooms before, while they were great, the extra breathing room helps them open up.Professional ins...

Wilson Sophia 2: grills on or off ?
I have WP 8's. I swear they are a little more open and focused with the grills off. My dealer doesn't think I could pass a double blind test on this...it's close, but there is that little bit more focus IMO...

High End Isolation - HRS, SRA, Active platforms
Hi, I went from a Arcici Suspense stand with Symposium Ultra shelves on top of the stock acylic shelfs, to a Finite Elemente Pagode master reference. Also added Finite's cerabase feet for the rack and 5 sets of cerapucs for the equipment.The diff?... 
BAT 150 SE vs. Manley Neo- Classic 250
Hi, also the 150SE are a pretty big step up over a 75SE. FYI, I had 75SE, then bought a 2nd 75SE. My dealer converted them in about 15 min in my home. Jumper cable inside and soldering a wiring harness.Wow. Much more resolution, extension, control...

$3K used balanced I/O preamp suggestions
If you can find a BAT VK50SE. It's a little more richer that the 51se, and certainly more dynamnic and well balanced than a 31se. A 51se plus your vk200 is a killer combo...I did own the 50se/vk200 combo at one time. (I've kept stepping up in the ...

BAT VK-250SE and VK-3iX/SE
I have to agree with JMCgrogan2. Years ago I had Classe CA200 and a CP 50. I went with a VK200 and VK50SE at the time. Since then have stayed with BAT stepping up along the way...Nothing wrong with your current setup...Just BAT stuff will amaze yo... 
BAT VK 55SE just released
I can't answer your question directly, but I did used to own a VK 200, then went to a VK 60 for a few years, then a 75se and now 150se's. I have also heard the vk55.The difference you'll get from BAT's SS amps to the tube amps is a more real, more... 
Better than my 32" Sony Wega XBR?
ditto the above. I have a 36" Sony XBR. Tube. Gorgeous. Just wish it could scale to my 110" projection system. I love the big image, but the 8-10 yr old Sony XBR CRT is killer...especially on the blacks...if you have the space, keep what you've go... 
Calling on B.A.T. VK-P10SE owners
Goldorak, CONGRATULATIONS ! Killer phono stage. I love mine. Try a DIN to XLR phono cable when you can...The BAT phono stages do sound a little better...Good luck and happy listening!
