Dunlavy SC-IV vs. Aerial 10T characteristics
I heard the Aletha's on the same day as the SClV's. I felt they were more tactile but less coherent than the SClV's. Aletha's might have a higher WAF. 
Duntech
What do they cost today? 
Which preamps if any combine all these features?
Good luck. 
Maggie choices help
My opinion is not nearly as worthy as the rest. I have never owned Maggies. With that said, I have always thought every incarnation of the "3" series to be the most compelling. 
Single brand vs. multiple brand ICs and ACs
Perfectimage, is right on. Unless you have unlimited access: (1)to a variety of cables and (2) time to compare and (3) keep copius records, it can become unwieldly. Of course there always exceptions such as having someone you know and trust with e... 
shielded cables & IC's or not?

pure class A?
Sean, your the man. I've read numerous descriptions on the differences of "class", but yours is the most lucid and succint yet. Thanks. 
What kind of power wakes up electrostatic speakers
I can't speak from personal experience, but some seem to like the "Sim" gear with stats. 
Anyone try Audio Physic's LS placement philosophy?
I tried with another brand of speaker with similar design principles. Unfortunatley, it didn't work out so well for me. I couldn't get appropriate driver intergration. The sound was also a bit bright (my speakers don't tend to sound there best wit... 
mbl 101d speakers suck
I think the MBL's amongst the best speakers I have ever heard. How ever, I am bothered by the lack of coherence between the bass and the rest of the sound every time I hear them. 
Greatest American Rock and Role Bands of ALL Time
I don't know if he would qualify by your standards, but I nominate: Chuck Berry. 
Looking for Best Monitors
Ah, I wasn't sure. I really thought he was refering to the Audiogon rating scale, and I couldn't understand why? Monitors mean different things to many people. To some, it's a loudspeaker to use as a reference to make recordings, to others an abre... 
Should dealers be able to......
I would prefer not to recieve email unless I solicit it. I don't care for the medium,though I recognize it has it's place.
