A Real Treat For Your Ears - MIXING COLOURS by Roger & Brian Eno
Thanks for the recommendation! 
Martin Logan Impression 11a power
The recommended amplifier power for the 11a is 20 - 550 watts per channel, so your AR D400 is plenty of power and a 15 amp circuit will provide plenty of electricity to your amp, unless you're determined to drive all your neighbors out.  The MLs l...

Sounds like you're good to stream music.  If you can run an ethernet cable, many people feel a wired connection is better.  But if you can't, wifi will do.  It's just great to have access to all that music that streaming makes available.

Any Yep Roc Records Fans ?
I don't follow everything the label does, but I do like a couple of recent releases, The Third Mind and The Steep Canyon Rangers - North Carolina Songbook.  Both are excellent.

6922 Amperex PQ White label... D or O-getter? Holland or Hicksville?
There’s nothing wrong about talking about the sound of tubes, it’s something we enjoy doing, just as long as everyone knows that their results may vary. There are some posters on Audiogon who insist that there is no difference in sound between tub...

I'm not familiar with your Vandersteens but based on these measurements:https://www.stereophile.com/content/vandersteen-2ce-signature-loudspeaker-measurementsIf you're interested in bass I'd recommend a solid state amp.
