Major mistakes made in assembling your audio rig

Might be more of an effect from your room. Do you have corner bass traps and first reflections treated (at least side walls and floor, and if possible ceiling)? Proper room treatments can improve clarity quite a bit IME.

I'd add Stan Getz and Paul Desmond to my list. And while I cannot usually identify a drummer, if given multiple choice between two or three I think I'd be able to identify a few. For example, easy to differentiate Art Blakey vs. Roy Brooks. 
Good Recommendations For Scat Singing Please

Most of your list, plus John Coltrane, Jackie McLean, Mcoy Tyner, Red Garland, Keith Jarrett (but from his vocal distraction more so than his playing), Grant Green.
