IC between Linn Majik & Mimik
I switched from Linn IC's to Audiometallurgy GA-0's Cary preamp to Kudos, and Mimik II. Not sure it made any improvement, but did not hurt either. If you like the sound now, save your money for something else. Good luck. 
Linn Mimik
I have a Mimik II. I had a Numerik hooked up to it and sold it since it made no difference. If the Mimik plays as good, go with it. No need to spend extra money for something that may or may not be any better. Good luck.

klipsch heresy
I had Herseys and a lot of other Klipsch speakers. Yes they do sound good. I have a pair of Quartets that I no longer use (due to an all Linn system) that sound like Herseys on steroids. Forgot the sens for the Herseys, the Quartets are 97.5% happ...

When the only way you can drive is to look at the guy's tail lights in front of you. He drives into the ditch, and you follow him. I'll have another CARDHU please. 
Linn Pretek vs Wakonda vs Kolekter
I had a Kolektor until I went to tubes. You can hook up 3 amps to it. There's one on ebay for 350.00 Make sure you get a manual to set it up properly, or download one. I got a pair of Katans 6 weeks ago and they are fantastic. Good luck 
AntiCables v. Morrow?
I have the SP3's in biwire. They sounded great right out of the box, but I broke them in as instructed. Actually about 400 hours. It's amazing how thin and light they are, and how they perform. 
What percentage of audiophiles use a sub ?
If you have a good system with good speakers you don't need a sub for 2 channel sound. Music isn't recorded in the studio or even played live with the bass dominating everything... although bass is an important part of music... just don't over do ... 
To all tube lovers.......
McIntosh 7270. I have 85dB speakers and my Cary CAD120s drives them just fine. You WILL miss tube sound. Happy listening. The problem is your speakers. Happy listening. 
Will I need A moving coil set up device?
I have a Cary pre that requires a min. of 1.4mv so I use a dynavector 10/5 mc (piece of junk) that puts out 2.5mv so your combo should work. Antique Electronic Supply should be able to get you matching tubes. 480-820-5411 good luck
