What was your first music that you paid for?
The first I can remember buying is the Stones 45 with "Ruby Tuesday" on one side and " Let's Spend the Night Together" on the other. I believe it was 1965. It's almost 40 years later and still love the music! 
I could use some jazz mentoring.

Best and Worst Websites in Audio'dom
I'll go with Audiogon as best, however Naim-Audio.com is a very close second.Audioasylum.com and Audioreview.com get high marks.Audioshopper.com and Audioweb.com are the worst. 
Old and new Naim amps . . .
I would go with the 202/200.Look here for much info concerning Naim:http://naim-audio.infopop.net/1/OpenTopic?a=cfrm 
Linn Majik biamp question
Either amp will work fine. It boils down to availability/price of units you may find for sale. Good Luck! 
Speakers for small room?
Some speakers that work well in a small room:Neat Petites (or a couple of other Neat Acoustic designs)AVI Neutron IIIATC SCM7Joseph Audio RMsiTotem ArrosDynaudio contour 1.1Linn Tukans (or other Linn stand mounts) 
Audiophiles & music-have you got it wrong?
So much good music exsists today and is overlooked because the record companies funnel the majority of resources into a small percent of acts they want to market. I do most of my CD and LP shopping at Mom and Pop new/used outlets. I know the point... 
Would you refer this to all interested parties?
Mrkidknow,Points well taken. I still think any CD over $12.99 is overpriced, and there are plenty. 
Help me find it again
Sell it all and buy a Naim system, did the trick for me.

Would you refer this to all interested parties?
Not only does the music suck, it's overpriced. 
Dynaudio 52se - best integrated amp at low volume?
Hate to say this but Dyns do not love low volume. I have had Contour 1.1 and still have Audience 42. They are great speakers, but like to be turned up to sound their best. 
Decent receiver w/an alarm function?
Linn Classik 
Norah Jones on Bluenote??
Ditto what Ben Campbell said. 
Upgrading my Linn set up HELP advice please
Hi Joolz,I don't think a Mimik would be much better than your Arcam.
