What's the ideal height for bookshelf speakers?
That's fine. Assuming your head is not in a brace, its relationship to the tweeter will always vary a bit. 
Signal degration over length, source vs. output ?
I have a tube preamp with <50ohm output impedance as well. 
Signal degration over length, source vs. output ?
Actually, my concern is the harmonic change due to very long speaker cables rather than power or voltage losses. In addition, living with a 10meter run for one or the other, I have experimented with both and found my preference. Of course, I gener... 
Signal degration over length, source vs. output ?
The lengths you describe are not a real concern either way but I still prefer shorter speaker cables. The reason for my preference is that the connection between the preamp and amp is impedance-defined for the transfer of voltage and, assuming dec... 
Signal degration over length, source vs. output ?
Generally longer interconnects are better than longer speaker wires. What distances we're talking about? Where is your stand and where is your speakers? What are the speakers and what are the input/output impedances of your preamp and amps? 
How to bias Sonic Frontiers Line 2?
Well, I checked the schematic for the Line2 and what has been suggested balances the bias between the two sides of the 2nd 6922 (voltage amplifier stage) in order to help insure balance between the two phases of the balanced output. There is no wa... 
How to bias Sonic Frontiers Line 2?
Are you adjusting bias or balancing phase? 
How to bias Sonic Frontiers Line 2?
Well, I defer to you since you seem so familiar with it but I will still pull out the manual tonight. 
How to bias Sonic Frontiers Line 2?
AFAIK, they are autobiased. This is from memory but I'll check the manual tonight. 
SACD a 5.1 medium?
Use google to find the technical differences. Subjective comments can also be found although you may get some right here. 
SACD a 5.1 medium?
Sure but why would you? I repeat: All SACDs have a stereo track. That means that on a MCH SACD, you would play the stereo track if you do not have a MCH system.Besides, who needs a stereo master remixed into 5.1 fictitious channels? 
SACD a 5.1 medium?
All SACDs have a stereo track. Most are superior to their CD equivalents although that is dependant on the specifics of mastering.
