Changing your tune
A decade is not even middle-aged yet for a final statement.Best to keep on keepin on........ or not,its all the same here as you never outgrow your need for therapy.Have a large weekend,cheers,Bob 
Rega Elicit Break-In
Only slightly related,sorry,but I had a Rega Luna years ago.I would use it as a backup to amps such as Counterpoint,Mcintosh, and even Ayre and Berning ZH-270.It was startling how close that little 40 watter was to those heavyweights!Good luck wit... 
Merlin VSM
I had my VSM-MM's in a 13x22 and it was great,just right.Now I am in a much bigger room and they dont fill it nearly as good,but to be expected for their size.I feel you will be in a good place size wise.I used a few amps and even a little Rega Lu... 
New USB and Toslink cables
I believe the molecules move in to a better alignment regarding direction and tightness similiar to cyroing,but not exactly the same.I could also be an audiophile and a believer in Voodoo.YMMV,good luck Racer....

Berning ZH-270 Replacement
Just had it for 1 day in the stock form running with Merlin VSM-MM's in early 2005.The best amp to go with these.Slightly better than an Ayre V5,a little better than a modded Counterpoint NPS220 and alot better than some others.Not much info,but i... 
CJ MF2300A- What's a good price?
Recommend an amp with more curent than that one.As mentioned above the Threshold would be good if you can figure the history.It will need caps soon if not already done.The Aragon is a nice choice.The CJ is a fine amp but depending on the room size...
