Please...Advice For The Speakerly Challenged
How about the dunlavy scIII's that are listed for sale;I had a pair of these and drove them with tubes and solid state;mccormack dna-1 mono's were my amps at that time and they performed quite nicely. 
Upgrade advice, please.
Maybe the Moscode 401hr would work for you and be the fit you are seeking;there are 2 for sale right now and price to me does not seem out of line. 
What percentage of audiophiles use a sub ?
I have a sub and it is used for the home theater sound and effect and I try not to use it for 2 channel audio but sometimes I do.
