Buying Dealer Demos
as long as they have not been abused do'nt worry. i would be worried about a dvd player that ran everyday or a cd player but not speakers.

The Soundlabs must go-any thoughts on substitutes?
the mini utopias are small and sound awsome. it will be an uphill battle beating the labs. they have awsome midrange. i replaced a-3s with jm lab utopias. i could live with either speaper. the utopias do look better in my room and are more dynamic...

I need to do this, please help
tim i think a chainsaw and a bulldozer will change everything, i would just put your 901s outside. they would sound much better outside. it just seems to make them sound well, better. if you must leave them inside try nailing 2 cats in each corner... 
Deciding on the right huge speaker
the krell speaker is not even full range. great looking speaker though, but if i was to spend that kind of jack i would want full range. the jm lab utopias should be much better than any of the speakers you mentioned. i listened to a ton of speake...
