Is the EPI 100 an 8ohm load?
Loose- I know. I also tried them with my 10 watt tube amp just to hear how they sounded. Obviously not very loud in my medium-sized room but listenable. Depending on your room size, they should work to some extent for you.

I run my EPI 100s with my Sansui AU D-11 in a second system. No problems. 
Compare the new Beatles vinyl to early pressings
The 'White Album' lost out in our home. My wife and daughter (who plays two instruments) both thought my Apple original had more life and tonality. The reissue sounds like a processed soundstage width and vocals coming from a well. My wife used th... 
what would you do?
Elizabeth, as much sense as that makes, I get the feeling that accountability will be lost on on our friend.

Thank you for the clarification. 
Neotech cables
It's hard for me to replace my NEI 3001 I/Cs. I use them for a phono cable from my TT to the phono stage. XShadows (large) on the TT end and WBTs on the p/s end. I have two other sets with different connectors (vampire & MAS). At one point, I ... 
Choosing between Reissue and Original pressings
Patience is also a vinyl virtue. I've come across 'Reckoning' G. Dead & 'Friday Night in San Francisco' DiMeola, McLaughlin, DeLuca for less than $10 total by accident. These currently sell new as reissues for almost $100. 'Must Have' is a rel... 
Speaker Cable and Interconnects under $1000
Call the Cable Company(usedcable.com), tell them this info but say under $400 and willing to up it just a bit if necessary for the ideal cable setup. I'm willing to bet you'll stay under $500, maybe way under.

Bottom line-there's better out there.

I remember the slotted port being on the back at the bottom. There are Internet pics showing this but apparently photos can be altered. The it's sealed' folks must be correct. Having owned one doesn't seem to matter.

I needed 6dj8 or equivalent for my phono stage (TTVJ). I bought Matsushita and Philips 7dj8 from Kevin @ Upscale. I never got the chance to even try the Phillips because the Matsushita sound incredible. I was using Amperex before and I'll never go...

I owned a Powerfield sub. I don't remember it being sealed. I remember a slotted port. 
Does you wife touch your system?
Yep Jhardy. Both my offspring (13 & 15) can cue, clean with Hunt brush and flip the vinyl over. Teaching about cables, connections and differences is going a bit slower. They also have some personal vinyl. 
Does you wife touch your system?
I guess that brings up another question. Does your maid touch your system? 8-)
