totem arro or rainmaker or von schweikert vr1
I would highly recommend a PrimaLuna to power your Arro's with, it is a magical presentation! See my system for more details. Good Luck!!! 
very small speakers suitable for wll mounting
I would recommend Aperion Audio 422's. They can be wall mounted (with Omnimount system), are a sealed enclosure, and only $200/pair! Great for general background music, especially in the playroom. With your budget you can definitely get better, bu...

Small size monitor suggestions

Best HT Speaker "package" for under $2500??

Low priced giant killers
I agree with Albert on the Kirksaeter Silverline 60's. Also, the Totem Tabu used is just above that range. A very capable monitor.

I own Aperion Audio for my HT set-up and I love them! I heard the new 632 bookshelfs at the HE show and they were impressive for the price! I've never been impressed with Paradigm, so I would easily choose or recommend Aperion as a superior to the... 
AAD 2001 or 2002
I heard these just the other day for the first time and was blown away by their performance! Incredible bass for their size and great clarity and layering. The incredible thing was their pairing with the Sound Quest SQ-84, a 10W tubed integrated. ...

Rene, sorry, just noticed you have a Jolida amp and not the JD100. Got confused there for a second. ;) 
Want to experience tubed CDP?
Restock, since you own both the Jolida and the AA Prima, what are your thoughts between the two? Will the AA get me what I am missing from the Cairn with the Jolida with that seductive tube sound??? I could afford a used AA Prima if I sold both th...
