Speakers that mate well with Jeff Rowland electronics
I owned Jeff Rowland Model 7's power amps with a Consumate pre amp for many years. The best match I found was Duntech. I am currently using Kharma Ceramique 1's with the wiring upgrade. These would be a great match with the new generation Jeff Row... 
Ensemble or Hydra...
The Ensemble cables blow away everything I have tried including Hydra. Best part is that they are very cost effective. Give Joe a call at JC Audio (Mr Tweaker) he gave me a money back guarantee, but I kept them all! Good Listening, 
Pre-amp dilemma.... again
You might consider the Kora pre-amp. A sonic bargin at $2,100 new. It is remote control, all tubes & sounds great! Give Joe a call at JC Audio for input. He is a real tweaker! I am sure he can help you. Good Listening 
Equi=Tech or Shunyata / Hydra
Try the Ensemble, good price & will blow away the high price PC's. 1 meter is only about $480. It is even better than the King Cobra's.Good Listening 
Tube Preamp shoot-out
Try the Kora Pre Amp, it has all the features you are looking for, but you can buy it new for what these others are selling for used. The combination of the Kora Pre Amp with the Roland will give you the best of both worlds, tubes & solid stat...

Speaker base - what material is best?
A Marble or Granite Base, 2 to 4 inches thick bolted to the speaker bottoms. This will really couple the speaker to the floors. Improve Bass performance, as well as the overall sound. I have done this with a number of speakers with great sucess.Go...

Thanks Bill,The remote arrived today just as you told me. It seems to be working fine. Now I can start trying to set up my subwoofer to work with my new speakers. I have a pair of Quad 989's, I have only had them a couple of weeks. I am sure the G... 
How does one get off the merry-go-round?
I think you have a good point here. Over the years I have tried all the approachs. Tri-amp, bi-amp, total seperates, multicables & the like.Now I seek a sound that I can live with, I still like mono amps, but only two. One line source pre-amp,... 
Maximum USPS Money Order is 700.
This one is a "no brainier”! Just restrict your purchases to $700. I am sure lots of spouses would just love that!On a more serious note. US Postal Money Orders are about the safest thing you can get besides cash. Even cash can be wet with green i...

Try EAD, T-1000 transport, and a EAD 7000 mk II. The pair should be pretty close to your price range. You will be very pleased with the sound.Good Luck,
