Do you use a Subwoofer when listening to stereo?
I am using two HSU ULS-15s to augment a pair of Klipsch Cornwall IVs. I am running the CW IVs full range and bringing the sub in @ 35 Hz. Excellent integration and it only barks when the occasion calls for it.Oz 
Old school speaker in new threads
Not bad, but definitely made to a price point. But you can get a used Cornwall I or II for about the same price or a little more and have the real deal.Also not sure how you avoid comb filtering with those two tweeters.Oz 
Aegir upgrade to Pass...maybe
The problem with the crites cornscala isn't the tweeter but the mid. It is too hot and needs to be bumped down a little in level. A pair of ALK xovers do the trick.Oz

Amp matching for Klipsch Forte III

McCormack DNA with Schiit Preamp?
The input impedance and gain of the DNA-1 lends itself to being compatible with passive devices. I had one years ago and it sounded great with a Pass Aleph L preamp.Oz 
Is this an Upgrade or a Lateral Move?
FWIW, I had a vk3i many years ago, late 90s. I won a VK-30 in an online contest and while waiting for it to be delivered, I sold the 3i. This was a mistake because to my ears the 3i was the better preamp. I didn't keep the 30 long before I moved i... 
How much overhang is ok between a speaker base and the stand top plate?
I can't see that it matters much at all, as long as the speakers are stable and secure.Oz 
I blew up my receiver. Now what?
power supply inside my receiver would be less capable. Power supplies in receivers are a joke. Lesson learned.Oz 
Does the 33 hertz frequency turn vinyl into super vinyl "YES"
I have my suspicions that sammy is on some hallucinogenics.............

Consider this karma telling you not to buy a receiver next time.
