Schitt Saga tube buffer preamplifier gain?
The Saga has no gain. Your source component needs to have enough voltage to drive your amp. 
Klipsch Heresy iv...Your experience.
Kevin deal has a video, he says it’s a fun speaker but not for audiophiles that like good imaging. I feel the same way about my Heresy IIIs. 
Tube testing in the SF Bay area?
If it was working before you put it away, I would not worry about the tubes. 
Would I have enough power?
"...You would have to drive Maggies with 48W to get the same loudness as his A26 with 15W..."I have never owned any system where 15 watts was satisfying.  
Where to locate Equipment?
"...The only audio equipment I have in my listening room are the speakers themselves..."I think that is an ideal set-up but not achievable for most people. Next best is having a low stand of equipment between the loudspeakers, certainly no TVs or ... 
Would I have enough power?
Just off the top my my head, 88db speakers and 15 watts is not going to cut it. My .7 Maggies and my KT-88 driven Prima Luna only works because I do not play very loud and I'm in a smallish room. 
Where to locate Equipment?
"...From a cable perspective, it is best to keep mono amps right behind the speakers keeping the speaker cables as short as possible running balanced cables to the amps..."Why is it better to keep high level cables short and low level cables long?

"...This speakers are very good if you match them correctly..."Yes they are, they should respond nicely to good gear. I have a pair of Heresy IIIs running off of a chip amp and while it's amazing that it plays as well as it does with the cheap amp... 
Camera problem - asus laptop, windows 10
On my ASUS it's the fn (function) key. 
Anyone notice this with PrimaLuna EVO 400 remote??
Yes it's too coarse but my biggest complaint is that aluminum remotes feel cold to the touch. Really cold.  
More Detail From a CD?
You really can't improve on the original source.

"...the OP is using a pair of Klipsch bookshelf speakers and they have a sensitivity of 96 dB.....so a amp with 75 wpc is more than enough..."Except Klipsch efficiency ratings are a bit optimistic and it's a 38 wpc amp into 8 ohms (maybe).

"...suggestion - for better sound, get better speakers!!..."The bookshelf Klipsch with a nice Musical Fidelity integrated would be a nice little system.

"...can anyone out there help me figure out what am i to expect..."I'm still not sure what you are trying to do but you are not going to be happy. Despite their claim of efficiency the Klipsch loudspeakers need a little power to sound best. Bi-amp...

What are you going to use to split the frequencies?EDIT: Are you using an AVR for your SS power?
