I am Looking for That Elusive 3 Dimensional Room Filling Soundstage
Lots of damping out room reflections.  I think you'll have to experiment.  I had to remove some furniture..... 
Cconfused...
ishkabible....of coarse you like overblown bass....you think your part is the best.   I would guess you play electric bass.  If you play classical upright and listen to Gary Karr, et al, tone is the goal and not whomp. 
Eminent Technology LFT-8b in Harry's system
I tried to find someplace to listen to these speakers....couldn't.   A lost sale. 
Best Integrated, period.
Why isn't Ayre on your list?? 
Using some very long balanced Subwoofer cables.
XLR cables all sound pretty much the same.....tried many, and as long as you are balanced, you're good to go. 
Vandersteen 2WQ Subs and ARC Power amp
I was using the spikes under my 5A's as Vandersteen recommended.   I then put Herbies gizmos under the spikes as recommended by Herbie himself, but it definately was a very big step backward. 
Zyx mistracking issue
Why even think about a/s.....I've never met anyone that can hear the difference between too much a/s, too little a/s, or no a/s at all.  If your arm, setup, and cartridge were installed correctly, it doesn't matter. 
Zyx mistracking issue
Your Grace is better suited  for the Zyx...although I would double  check your settup 
velodyne dd plus? still considered best of the best?
Of course not 
Vandersteen 2WQ Subs and ARC Power amp
I tried Herbies underneath my Vandersteens....absolutely ruined the sound....Herbie took them back without comment. 
Sennheiser 650 Headphone Cable Upgrade
I'm using 650s with Cardas Cable in balanced mode with its dedicated balanced amp....  great sound. 
Anyone upgrade from a Loricraft to ultrasonic record cleaning?
Do you really want to clean records?.... hardly  use mine. 
TRL WON'T GIVE ME MY AMP
An attorney's letter is just advisory......just move on.  It will make you nuts to dwell on it. I would guess that the place is now a beauty salon. 
Vandersteen 2WQ Subs and ARC Power amp
Yes - use the spikes.   Isn't John the ginchiest? 
Has anyone upgraded from an AudioTechnica ART9?
 Ortofon Winfield, and Benz LPS are better than the black at about that price.
