SACD/DVD-AUDIO vs Technics SH-AC500D Compatible?
The analogue bypass of the SH-AC500D is not limited by the 24/96 resolution of the digital channels. The problem is that SACD/DVD-A players rarely have a volume control and the bypass of the SH-AC500D is merely that and lacks a volume control, as ... 
BC21 preamp problem
If you are up to it, open the chassis and examine it for poor connections. The BC-21 is wired point-to-point and, if the unit has been mishandled or grossly jostled, it's possible that connections have been opened. I had a sample direct from the m... 
Celestion 3000/5000/7000, Anyone remember these?
I travelled to GB many years ago and got to audition one of these. I cannot remember which one but I was unimpressed. 
books/articles on loudspeakers.
In addition to these, I also recommend Martin Colloms' High Performance Loudspeakers. 
Please Describe your Music Collection
Wasn't it "Make Believe Ballroom?" 
Anyone ever replaced The AR motor?
I have seen replacement motors on eBay, on and off, many times. 
Who offers full remote functions in a tube pre
I would look for a used SF Line1, 2, or 3, all of which fit your description with one exception: remote switchs preamp in/out of standby rather than complete power on/off. 
New Spectral CDP at CCES
"It is suppose to be the best CDP on the planet." I would expect them to say no less.

Since it is marked as a Model 20, the same # as the system, there is all the more reason to expect that system eq may be afoot here. While it will 'work' with any other amp capable of handling a 4ohm speaker, you may find that it sounds very diffe... 
Advice wanted
Let me warn you that KLH often used equalization in their electronics to compensate for the matched speakers' characteristics. That means that using the KLH speakers with linear, non-KLH electronics may result in disappointing results. What model ... 
digital splitting
Get a 75ohm video switch from Radio Shack. 
Older Infinity subwoofers--what is a servo sub?
Servo subs are now more in the mainstream than they used to be and Infinity (Arnie Nudell, actually) was a pioneer in this. Basically, the servo sub has a device (accelerometer or sensing coil) that feeds info back to the amp/controller so that er... 
To Z or Not To Z - Systems
Quite different. The z-systems is a totally digital and manually adjustable parametric EQ. I found it remarkably transparent.The TacT is a computer-managed room equalizer with software for parametric EQ. It offers options for a/d and d/a, as well. 
Any pinnacle-quality SS unbalanced gear out there?
BTW, the reason for balanced design is not, primarily at least, for longer runs but for lower distortion. 
Audiolab 8000T faceplate bulbs
In general, most replacement bulbs can be found. My best source is Bulbtronics. The problem is finding out the exact bulb-type you need. My approach would be to disassemble it and look. Another approach is to contact the TagMclaren website and ask.
