Is there a problem at Revel?
Kevin Voecks has told me that they have contracted with two new cabinet suppliers and that production has resumed. 
Unlytic v.s. Electrolytic...
Can you provide a link to information about what an Unlytic or Unlitic cap is? 
How to control volume on an integrated and amp
It's too bad that the line-level adapters you got did not work for your setup. What did they (not) do?OTOH, I have built them from pairs of resistors and they work just fine. 
Still more new labels to try...
I didn't find any of them particularly obscure. BTW, I collect ALL the Sefels. Greatly underappreciated (for Hungarian music). 
Need help setting up Meridian861/800 system
Get a laptop. The Meridian setups seem confusing but, with a little practice, they are fairly friendly. Just make sure that you save earlier versions as you try modifications.As for placement and room treatment, the same laws of physics apply to t...

Interesting digital recording on Vinyl....
Just look for the SR initials in the dead wax. 
Best multichannel SACDs?
It is a matter of taste. For example, I do not doubt that some of the earlier suggestions in this thread, e.g., Roxy Music, Police, Elton John, etc., are decent recordings (relying on the assessment of others) but I don't care to hear them. Same f...
