Infinity Primus 362: 2nd system/Value floorstander
Anybody know of any simple mods to these? 
B&W ASW800 or SVS SB-1000??
That model is close to 20 years old...and subs have come a long way since then...regardless of the performance during its heyday...I would be hard pressed to spend near $500 on a 20 year old product that obviously has no warranty... 
B&W ASW800 or SVS SB-1000??

Technics 1200...proven, reliable, upgradable, holds value...another 500 on cart and preamp...its going to sound really good.... 
New Thiel Speakers - Post Jim Thiel Era
Shame...but Thiel had a hell of a run...fortunately there are numerous comparable options out there...but all good things must end.... 
Turntable suggestion -- budget.. or not?
I pretty much started where you did albeit with a slightly higher end Project table with carbon arm...same Pearl cartridge,etc...and although this set up would be an upgrade to your current one...it is not the quantum leap it sounds like you want ... 
Lou Reed has died R.I.P.
Haha...all in the eyes of the beholder I guess...Lou was a gifted lyricist whose NYC narratives invited one in...in that regard he was a ver y transparent artist...one felt like they knew him...as a singer/guitarist an acquired taste....
