What amp to pair with a Hafler DH-110 Preamp?
I'd look for a Hafler XL280 or maybe a John Hillig, (Musical Concepts) modded Hafler DH220. A Forte Model 3 would be nice. As would a Threshold S150.

Cool!  Mine should be coming soon then.  Did they include copies of your invoices or sales tickets or order numbers?

Used vs new Tube mono amp? - same model
If you believe in equipment break-in, the new amp would need several hundred hours.  Once there, if a new set of matched tubes was put into both amps, they should sound pretty much the same. Sometimes manufacturers make "running" changes to the m... 
Why are speaker stands so expensive?!
On the Monoprice stands that the screws don't align, make sure you have the top plate on correctly.  Turn it 90 degrees and the holes should line up. I made that mistake on my first pair.  The top plate runs in line with the bottom plate, not acr... 
Why are speaker stands so expensive?!
Another vote for the Monoprice stands! I have a pair in 24", 28" & 32". They are WONDERFUL. Can be filled and modified if needed. If you can catch a Monoprice sale with free shipping, they can be really inexpensive.  I spent on average for m...

Canare 4S11"G" now available!
Canare 4S11 user here too, and with the estimated over 400 hrs burn-in, not terribly excited about going through the same thing with the G.  I still recommend 500 hours, (Canare recommends 200, but it needs more).  I totally understand your tho... 
Canare 4S11"G" now available!
@roxy54...yes, but it has to accommodate an almost 8 gauge wire. After massive research years ago, I found WBT and Furez.  The WBT's are expensive, but the Furez are really nice and decent priced.  I think ViaBlue also has some connectors that wi... 
Canare 4S11"G" now available!
@pinwa...I twist all (4) conductors together for a single stick that runs JUST the positive OR JUST the negative of ONE speaker only.  So you need (4) sticks total.  I've tried it just putting another normal run on top of each other, but this way ... 
6DJ8 vs. 6922?
Every piece of gear that I have owned that uses 6DJ8 tubes, I have had great success with 6922 & 7308 tubes.  All are interchangeable. In addition, my absolute favorite is the PCC88 (7DJ8).  I have NEVER had a problem using these in ANY unit ...
