Purchasing from Japan
I wouldn't be concerned with CD's, from Japan. However, if purchasing audio gear, you need to be sure it's not a Grey market component...All the risk is on the buyer.  
Schitt Audio Still in business???
I just received my Schitt Bit Frost DAC (it's a B-Stock) yesterday.  I purchased last week, and it shipped the same day. I also sent customer service an email and it was replied to on the same day. I suppose new builds are taking longer to fulfill...

Subwoofers
I use a Media Bridge Y - connector from my PA to each Rythmik F12G sub, an easy and cheap solution to hook up both subs to a PA.

Experience with AMR DP-777
FWIW, I ordered this DAC back in March, the dealer said that the shipment was being delayed due to an issue with the volume control. The issue had be identified to a faulty chip and AMR was in the process of resolving this issue. As a result my de...

WARNING - USE UPS FOR SHIPPING RATHER THAN FEDEX
As mentioned, shipped a pair of speakers via UPS, speakers arrived undamaged, and on time. The only issue was the lag in time it took for the system to update the tracking infomation.   
WARNING - USE UPS FOR SHIPPING RATHER THAN FEDEX
I just shipped a pair of speakers via UPS, it was cheaper than Fedex, I doubled boxed and had UPS pack them up at the UPS store. I have faith they will arrive safe & sound to their new owner..... 
New Luxman DA-06 doesnt sound so great. Will it get better?
The US distributer " On a Higher Note" won’t touch a Grey market player with a ten foot pole. The OP is bound to the the country of origin for any service/support needs. If the player is legit Luxman, and no reason to believe it’s not. Then be pat... 
Preamp... Solid State or Tube
No doubt the Modwright LS-100 should be a top consideration, with the 150SE amp. As I understand, the difference between the LS-100 and the 36.5 is the latter is a bit more refined sound  and the former has more warmer tube sound. So it is becomes... 
Suggestion of Amplifier for Dynaudio Confidence C4
I heard these speakers being driven by a Sim Moon 600i integrated amp. The room was huge and the C4's, sounded very impressive and the Moon IA had great control over the speaker regardless of volume.  
Wilson Sasha 1
If your are not set on Wilson, you may want to consider Eggleston.
