When is Belles going to get the credit he deserves
I guess he is making it. Even without the recognition Larry is hoping for. Maybe he doen't want it, that way. He's, as you said around for 20 yeaRS, SO HE MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT. Maybe over-exposure would kill him. Steal his soul. He knows ... 
Underestimated, song, artist or group '' gems'' ?
Anton Bruckner. Came close but not close enough. Still one of my favorites. 
Vintage gear repair?
You might find somebody that will work on the older tube gear. However, i do not htink it would be worth the effort fixing the ss gear from the 70's, considered as "dark age" of audio. Own the old Grunding Quadrofonic receiver. Still running! 
Integrated amp with JMlab Cobalts?
Haven't you consider tubes? Jadis Orchestra would be beautiful match for Cobalts somewhat "lean" presentation. No HT option, but for music something to consider. 
1000 budget for speakers and integrated - HELP
For acoustic Jazz?! Tube Anthem 1 integrated and Klipsch Heresy, all for one grand! 
Should I buy a third Linn lk85.
I would get a pair of av 5140's, instead of Ninka. 
Speakers for Mesa Tigris
Check on Living Voice, speakers from UK! 
amp for Meadowlark Shearwater's
Tube amp is not the only kind of amp, that would work well. Try Pass Aleph 3/Pass L or P combo. 
Solid State replacement for AI Modulus 3A.
Read in HiFi + that Sugden Masterclass pre-amp, sound as good as any at any price. New was $3000, you might find one used for less than $2k? 
Martin Logan vs. Thiel
I think 125wpc might not do with ML Ascents? I auditioned them with CJ's equaly powered amp of 120wpc, and indeed i missed something too. Overall picture was satisfiying, but i felt more power would do ML justice. Try 200wpc minimum, before going ... 
unico 80wpc enough for dynaudio contour 1.3 mkII?
I am sorry, but Dynaudio 1.3mkII wont sound so good if fed with weak amplification. I have one speaker (to recommend) that will blow your socks off. Living Voice Avatars, used for less than 2K, and as hard core Dynaudio fan and longtime owner of t... 
Good speaker compatability with NAD C 370
Used Dynaudio Audience 50 monitor. Good overall with plenty of bass. Nevertheless, "high piched music" is not exactly the flatering way of describing the classical music. 
Revel M20 vs. Dynaudio Contour 1.3 MKII
As a former owner of 1.3, before i went with 5.0 (and still think "note per note" 1.3 MkII would be better suited in some situations) i will strongly suggest auditioning Dynaudio Contour line of speakers, with your own gear, in your own room. Dyna... 
The Front End is Done. Upgrade Speaker Ideas
Your room size is something i would take in consideration first. Let's face it, it is more small than medium, and large speakers would be just wrong thing to do, for the long term satisfaction! My vote goes for Harbeth Monitor 30. 
Recommend a good Monitor for my existing system
Aren't Harbeth and Spendor bit to 'tough" to drive with Pass Aleph 30? You room is not that small to be limited to monitors. I know you want to stay out of the rat-race, but consider Living Voice Avatars, used that is!
