KEF LS 50 in NE Ohio?
A room sized like yours wants a floor stander, like you already have. On the other hand, a room sized like mine (10 x 9) wants a small stand-mount. Keep what you have. 
Favorite lp of all time
So many wonderful choices but for sheer variety, the "White Album". Honorable mentions go to to "Exile", "Blood on the Tracks", "Pet Sounds", "Tommy", Zep's "III" and the beat goes on. 
Miss ya Jerry Garcia - it hasn't been the same
Agree, but the last decade, or more, of Jerry's life was difficult for me as a big fan. Garcia's playing became spotty and his voice was really shot. The several post-GD projects are good, not great. I find we're just trying to re-live our past an... 
LOUSY SOUND AT LIVE CONCERTS
Not only is the sound at most live shows horrific but the people who go to concerts seem to have zero interest in anything but dancing, chatting, texting and the like. Last show I saw was Dylan. I took my kids to see the icon. My kids are all unde... 
Bands where U say
Allmans had Duane lived, Blind Faith had they stuck it out, Nick Drake had he lived and Hendrix who died way too young.

"Vegasears" had this spot-on. Thanx to all. 
SoundSmith repair time
Needless to say (I hope) when someone promises 2-2.5 months to do something and it's going on 7 months , that is entirely unacceptable. I would never do biz with a shop like this. 
after TT upgrade, digital sounds like crap- help
There is no cure. A "garage-sale" TT beats digital. So, very simply, stop trying to fix digital. 
Songs With Best Ending
Somebody to Love...Queen 
Best Rock Song Of ALL TIME?
I'll go with the Beatles "Revolution". It's perfect. I also love Larry's Mott selection.Many will say "Stairway" is the one. 
Can anyone identify the little black speakers ...
Aurum Cantus (a guess). 
New Bowie album
Get MOG and listen to it in its entirety. You'll never look back and curse the day you signed up. 
ATC SCM11 vs Monitor Audio Gold Reference 60
Cannot help on the Monitor product but the ATC will not let you down. Be aware that ATC is rather low on the "efficiency" scale so you need current and watts. It is the most "distortion" free brand of speakers I have ever heard.
