DISCUSSION: "It only comes out at night". Does anyone else have this experience!?
It is very much a power grid matter. In UK they change over generators of an evening, usually around 9pm and I can hear the sound suddenly kick in. My research company True Fidelity is working on a solution - watch this space!  
If a " system " cannot do this, I move on........
I wouldn;t say Adele recordings are any good at all. If you think they sound good, well ... it stopped me readung the rest of your post  
Best phono stage for Lyra Etna SL cartridge?
I found the Lyra particularly smooth. Having a smooth type phonostage may be a bridge too far 
Roon for high end audio?
I tried Roon for  few years. It does NOT provide quality of SOUND that is touted around here and I hate the file management. There you go. I use a DCS stack and the Roon "processes" are not useful at all at this level 
Noise floors
I do not understand all this, apart from identifying that if there is much snow on the ground outside, then the sound inside is great 
Amplification: what are the biggest advances of the last 40 years?
I am pleased with all my incarnations of my Bryston amps up top the present 7b3 (I have tried other makes btw). It is much a question of what you like .. When I put in, now and then, my now ancient Threshold s1000's I still go "Wow - I love these"... 
Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels.
Different amplifiers in any range by the same maker have different responses at lower levels. I use Bryston and each new product is slighty better at lower volumes, so it is incremental and not speaker dependent 
Different amplifier class for different music genres?
Classical recordings generally disappoint me in terms of quality. In the same room I have 2 systems - one for digital and one for analogue - as the requirements sound wise are quite different 
Help selecting a power cord.
I have a DCS Vivaldi stack, so in my view that allows me to hear differences of cables very clearly. It is apparent that Upsampler/clock/Dac need a VERY LIGHT TOUCH cable for best results .. so for source kit I would recommend such, but beyond tha... 
Home Theater Bypass , why am I hearing this now.
DigitalI have a Vivaldi stack playing the front 2 speakers via my own made preampI have a Bryston sp3 playing simultaneously into the sides and rears (the front L&R are muted). The sp3 splits various signals very well (it is not just surround ... 
VINYL SUCKS!
If his kit was improved he would like it more. He buys a spitfire and says he doesn't like e-types. Ok matey

Replacement for 802 D3s
i.e. The 800d3 is an ideal uplift to the 802d3. It seems to be a standard upgrade - followed by many 
Replacement for 802 D3s
It's not the speakers it's your front end. I auditioned Macs and Blades with the 802d3 and 800d3. Far too weak, I would not recommend Macs and the blades were far inferior too. I use Bryston (7b3 and 28bsst2) and they provide very strong results
