soft dome versus hard dome tweeters
My Dad has Electa Amator III and they sound great with that special tweeter.    I just picked up a pair of speakers for my second system.   I bought a pair of Studio Electric M4.   They use a silk dome.   I am really loving these speakers.     
Eversolo dealers in Portland, Oregon area.
You absolutely should get a streamer.

The Icon in my opinion is a safer bet for FW that works.   Yes Blusound sometimes has issues but they have a much better software team .  Lenbrook has far greater resources and $$$ than any streamer manufacturer.

There is a reason that dealer no longer carries Eversolo.  They are sticking dealers with units bricked by bad  FW.   They also have no repair or support in the US or any other country.  A real POS company to deal with.    Wait for the Icon or bu... 
Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers
I remember when I got divorced the last thing I was thinking about was buying speakers.  I was lucky to have enough cash to buy my headphone amp and a new pair of Grados.      I packed up my system and put it in storage until the dust settled.   ... 
Studio Electric m4
The M4 are really special.    I fell in love with them after just a few hours of listening.    Exactly what I was looking for in a compact speaker.    Build quality is excellent.  Amazing quality and quantity of bass.   Extremely well balanced.  ... 
Such Great help before. Maybe some more help now
I have Forte IV , I don't think i would mess with them except for maybe putting DynaMat or something similar on the back of the tweeter and mid horns.....  
To Fritz, Quicksilver, and all the exceptional makers trying to get the word out
Quicksilver has been one of my favs for a while but I have to give a shout out to Fritz Speakers. He read that I was looking for a small speaker and reached out to offer a trial of his speakers. Unfortunately I had already pulled the trigger on a ...

Looks like a great system.   Not sure about GR Research ....    I would trust your ears, if it sounds good, it's good.  Enjoy  
Studio Electric m4
I ended up buying the M4.   Should have them in a week or so.   Could not find one negative word about them.   Dan Wright personally owns a pair and often demos his gear at shows with Studio Electric.      
Sonic Frontiers preamp in standby mode
These are still great preamps.   Enjoy.   12AT7 are easy to find compared to other NOS tubes and usually pretty affordable.    I'm using a JJ 12AT7  in mine now and it sounds pretty good.   I had a Mullard 6201 in there and it sounded excellent.     
Sonic Frontiers preamp in standby mode
A SFL 1 doesn't have a standby mode.  It has a 45 second mute timer.   The green LED will flash upon the first 45 seconds of warm up, then you hear the relay click and get music.   If the Mute switch is lifted the LED will flash indicating it is m... 
Enjoying the Original Music Streaming Format - Analog FM Stereo
I also have a MD 102 which is also a great tuner.   Unfortunately some local stations are being moved to HD or AM in favor of talk / news radio.

Listening to my tuner right now.  I just pulled my Fanfare FT1a out of the closet.  Forgot what a great tuner this is.   
Replace tubes yearly?
I bought a tester when I started using amps with rectifiers and four pin antique tubes.   It save me from disaster with my 300b.  A rectifier took out the fuse on my tester (basically a small light bulb) and not my amp.    Not practical to own/bu...
