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.  
Audiophile pets and their names...
Two dogs, Max & Sadie....Two great dogs with zero interest in my rig, during listening session they just sleep.  
Hostility from manufacturers
I purchased a MW 150SE amp.... used and it was originally a sliver color. I contacted MW about getting it re - skinned to black, after several email and phone calls, all was set. The seller sent the amp directly  to MW, once received Dan called me... 
Most unusual/mesmerizing female voice.
Dewller,Agree, I have both OP CDs, really good, especially "Be my  hero" and the live version of this track is a head spinner....

A second mention of Mary Fahl, what a fantantic singer. Check out "Going home" and " Ben Aindi Habibi"  just a haunting voice.  
Universal Players vs. Dedicated CD/SACD Players
Agree the new X series looks sweet, but the K-05 that are listed now are at very reasonable price. It may be worth the time compare them, it's a shame that Esoteric does not allow an upgrade path for existing owners.

Who are the most underground high-end companies
+2 for Selah Audio, excellent speakers, well designed and very reasonably priced for the level of performance that they provide. Not to mention that Rick, is easy to work with and will design any speaker that fits your needs. Yes I do own them as ... 
The one piece of gear you will never sell
I have no plans to ever sell my Selah Tempesta Tower speakers,  as far as I know, it's  the only pair that exists in this form. And I still get great enjoyment from them, and that is probably the real reason.  
What's up with the ridiculous offers?!?
I always respond to all offers, the ones I get most most kick out of, are the ones that low ball and then expect the seller to pick up shipping and Paypal fees as well. Normally I will decline or make a counter offer, and then the potential buyer ... 
So how many people are using subwoofers
I'm using two Rymthik F12G's and couldn't be happier, they were easy to place in the room and fine tune (altho still a work in progress) and the subs  do a great job filling in the bottom end.  I have never been a fan of subs in a two channel setu... 
Upgrading receiver: Got a pair of Dynaudio Sapphires+NAD C740
Also consider amps and IA from Sim Moon and Musical Fidelity both work well with the Dyns.
