Recommendations for speakers in a much smaller listening room.
Try your existing Tyler loudspeakers in the new room before moving on the something else.  
They should charge more for it…
The article states that a competitor to WB believes they should charge more for  the product.  He is simply repeating what an industry insider has stated.  What evidence to you present to doubt him?

TAS also said a Rega turntable/arm/cartridge combo was a turntable of the year.  It's priced under $20k. Based on the description provided by TAS, I celebrate the WB TT.  It sounds like a really good design.  And if it's in line with other WB pro... 
Local pickup for speakers - should I let the buyer in the house or use the the garage?
Glad you're safe.  Did you scan for counterfeit bills?  
Suggestions for a holographic preamp?
Buying multiple backup remotes from Herron would be a solid option.  
Suggestions for a holographic preamp?
I don't understand.  Your current system provides a deep holographic soundscape so your preamp is fully capable in this respect.  You say you want to replace it, but not for sound reason and then you don't say what those reasons are.  So why do yo...

Treat the buyer the same way you would want to be treated if you were him.  Remember, he thinks you might rob him.  
Luxman C900u owners
In the other thread someone suggested using an XLR/RCA adapter or cable.  An outboard crossover seems overly complicated. I agree you should contact Luxman directly.  
Selling towers - keep getting bad actors/scammers when doing local pickup only.
Have a conversation with them about the loudspeakers and their system. When they come to pick them up let a friend know and arrange to contact them after the sale.  The buyer with $4k in cash has more to worry about being scammed then you do.  
Is it possible to really know what you're doing?
You don't have to know anything, you can just pay somebody who does know.  There was a time when that was the role of the audio dealer.  Now people are into the "journey" and want to make their own choices.  Some people quickly figure stuff out an... 
Need to get off of bluetooth.... looking for a wifi streamer for my budget
Stay with what you have until you can truly afford something better.  Interim solutions are a waste of money.  I imagine you would be perfectly happy If it wasn't for people on this forum telling you to ditch BT.  Be happy and be patient.  Good th... 
Why not the piano as a reference for bass
A Clavinova is a clavinova and Yamaha does not market it as a concert instrument.  It's a wonderful home oriented piece of technology.  
Upgrade from Joseph Audio Pearls?
Based upon what I've read in this thread Soix overreacted to Audiotroy's fairly benign comments.  Is there something else going on here?  Carry over from another thread possibly?  
Best way to spend my money
Do the phono preamp power supply upgrade.  Since you list it I assume it's within your budget.  A 15 foot balanced cable doesn't have to cost much.  Pro music stores sell them by the boatload.  
Does Chat GPT just give you the answer you are hoping for?
How did it make an evaluation of your system's performance without getting into issues of setup, electrical service and room acoustics?  Did they have pictures or diagrams of your listening space? In this case, I think it's telling you something ...
