I believe the first picture is from Clockwork Orange.  
Truly Stunning Vinyl Album
Dream with Dean.  45rpm version.  Liquid!  
My experience with The Music Room
I have placed multiple purchases with TMR and everything went smooth.  Great prices and wonderful packaging.  
Opinions about Newvelle Records pressing quality?
Over the last couple years when they had a sale on single discs, I bought a few over a period of time.  I returned 2, hassle free by the way, since they were terribly warped.    
Best speakers for a small room
Magico A1.  
Magico A5 or Sonus faber SERAFINO TRADITION or Harbeth 40.3 XD
Let me know if you buy them.  I would be interested if you find them as great as I do....or you can hate me for the recommendation.

Speaker recommendation for mc452 and C2600
I have the 425 driving PSB T-3.  I love it.  Unfortunately the T-3 are ported.  They are approximately 27 inches from the back wall.  
Audioquest Niagara 5000 or 7000
The honest answer is ........no. I would not perceive a major difference.  Subtle. 
Need advice about upgrading speakers ( it might be the last one i own).
About a year ago I purchased the PSB T-3.  I just love them.  Very smooth, non-fatiguing, detailed.  I could listen to them all day. 
Audioquest Niagara 5000 or 7000
Well, I bought the 5000 and hooked it up on Friday.  It has improved my system.  Bass is more authoritative.  Vocals more distinct and forward.  Never thought that I would say this, but there is more "air" around the instruments.  Noticeable audio...
