Planar in a small room
How small a room? I am still a fan of the Maggie 1.6's, but they do have a tall profile. 
Sony 9000es mods and break-in
Send it out for mods first, you will just have to reproduce the break-in time. 
Krell amps with Magneplanar speakers
I too like Tireguy's suggestion for solid state. For tubes, I would highly recommend the Wolcott's (Albert's choice as well). I heard the Wolcott's on the Maggie's and do not know that I have ever heard the Maggie's sound better. I was SHOCKED!!! ... 
what is the best super speaker and why?
I have heard all, and even owned some of the speakers you mentioned and none of them actually do it for me. All the speakers you mention seem to do some things very well, but miss in key areas. I have always been a big fan of Wilson and SoundLab, ... 
Where R U?????
Portland, OregonTireguy: If you come to Oregon, I could set you up with a SWF 18-35 and great jazz! In the meantime, I have a very good freind in Schenectady that is a die hard audiophile. I don;t think he is your type though.Calloway: With Duke n... 
Law of Diminishing Returns; where does it kick in?
So much depends on what you want in a system. Getting that extra little bit definitely costs quite a bit more. With speakers, if you want that big, live sound, with lots of air movement, it is going to take a big speaker, which in turn is going to... 
The most important piece in a stereo system???
Great question. I used to think speakers, until I brought the Tenor Audio amplifiers into my home. They were so much better and different than any other amplifiers I heard, that I had to re-adjust my thinking. Shortly after, I became a dealer for ...

I am so sorry, I responded to the title. I never read the thread.My Bad!:) 
PAD Rev A vs. Rev B
The Rev 2 disc does the job in 1/3 of the time. It has been a while since I looked, so I may be off by a bit. I like it quite a bit, but it is a lot of money to spend for a burn in disc. Some people like the XLO quite a bit and it is much less exp... 
Amp. impedance setting for 6 ohm speakers ?
Try them both and see which sounds better. I am pretty sure they a 6 ohm nominal speaker, but is there an impedence drop? If so, you may find the 4 ohm taps sound better. 
Any great speakers out there?
Great question!I have recently been in search for a "cost no object" (within reason for me) speaker. I have listnened to quite a few and have found that most of the time, the difference in price does not correlate with the sonic gain, except for t... 
Looking for a amplifier. Need help. ML Classe
I agree with Scon90, the ProAcs would sound great with some high power tube amps like an ARC VT200, which should be obtainable for your price.I think it would be a significant improvement over all of the fine amps you mentioned.
