tube CD player for tube integrated amp?
You did not mention a price point , but I really like how my PP2 works with my Granite 657 CDP . It is very extended and resolving which compliments the PP2 nicely . This unit has seperate SS and tube outputs . The tube side has its own volume con... 
"mini" monitors for Primaluna prologue two
Not sure about the "mini" aspect of your request but , I am using Reference 3a De Cappo i's with my PP2 . These have a fairly flat impedance curve , >90db. efficiency with only a capacitor for a crossover network . In a small room , I have no n...

Aluminum tweeters ? I was not aware that Soliloquy used metal tweeters .My 6.2i's had soft dome tweeters .Very nice speakers for the money .

Why LCD and Plasma? 37
Brianmgrarcom ;I had to chuckle when I read that the CC guy would not let you demo the way that you wanted to !This echos my last two experiences where I wanted to demo some speakers with the Onkyo AVR that I wanted to purchase . Two different sto... 
How to make sound less detailed with warmth?
I once had the same problems as you now experience . I had spent money on well respected equipment that did not please me . It sounded good in the store but soon after bringing it home I did not like it nearly as much ! I discovered that some CD's...

While I am in no way as learned as the other responders here I would like to relate my experience with sound fields . It does mimic some of the respondants .I used to use an all in one system . A Rotel 5 channel amp , Rotel pre/pro , NAD CDP and J... 
Your thoughts on preamp/processors
I have the same problem .All was well with the Onkyo A/V receiver . Upgraded to a pre/pro and 5 channel amp and the wife and kids could no longer "make it work". I am in the process of going back to a A/V receiver ! 
A-V receiver power ratings
Pdn ;The examples , that I used above , were theory only .While it is desireable to find high-er amperage amps you do not necessarily need to have lower voltage to go with it . It will probably be difficult to find these specs in any brochure that... 
A-V receiver power ratings

A-V receiver power ratings
And driving the speakers is not just about wattage but the amount of current behind those watts ! 
CD's no longer supported ?
Please don't get me wrong . I am not trying to defend anyone . And I certainly don't want this to be true as CD's are my main source !Just trying to find out if anyone has any insider info on this . From time to time insider info has been talked a... 
CD's no longer supported ?
Once no , twice maybe .This was on a national tv program , that has a large following with nothing to gain from this .Do you have info to the contrary ?
