integrated amp recommendation needed
The Plinius 8100, 8150 and 8200 are excellent if you can find one in your price range. They are getting a little old, but should still be good for at least a few years.  If/when they need the caps replaced,  do it and still have a good,  inexpensi... 
Remote Possibilities
With the Harmony remotes, you don't need to enter codes. You set up the remote on the Harmony website and it downloads the codes to the remote via USB. You can check the Harmony website to see if the MF player and amp are in their database.I haven... 
Adding a turntable to my system
@thirsty93 - Excellent! Glad you are happy with the sound. If it's new, it will probably get quite a bit better after some hours of break-in. Enjoy! 
Has anyone considered rebuying a speaker you once owned??
I would buy another pair of Infinity RS 1.5's in a heartbeat if they were in better condition than the pair I'm currently using. My pair is not perfect, and I would like to have perfect pair. But at what price? I paid $264 for mine a couple of yea... 
Your last concert was to see who and when?
Saw Two Cellos with my wife and 13 y.o son. Highly over-rated IMHO. However, the hundreds of cello playing middle/high schoolers and most of the women in the crowd, seemed to really enjoy it. This included my wife and son.......

REFERENCE 3A De Capo BE
Jim,I never felt the need for a subwoofer in my room with the DeCapos. Admittedly, I'm not a bass head, but the Decapos had plenty of bottom end for my taste.

REFERENCE 3A De Capo BE
@bigshutterbug - Good point about the ease of driving this speaker with just about an amp. I used them in a moderately sized room using 2A3 tube amp (3.5 w/ch), 300b tube amp (8 w/ch), 35 w/ch solid state and 150 w/ch solid state. All of them drov... 
Whats on your turntable tonight?

REFERENCE 3A De Capo BE
Jim,I'm not sure about the current BE iteration of this speaker, but the previous version had just a single capacitor used as a high pass filter for the tweeter (I think this is still the case). The mid-woofer runs full range, connected directly t...

@slaw - As a matter-o-fact, I do have Glen Hansard - "It was a Triumph We Once Proposed" songs of Jason Molina.
