Dynaudio speaker stands 4 or 6?
And don't forget to fill it with sand or kitty litter. 
Big, big room -- which 10-20k speakers?
Tannoy Definition DC10Ts would probably be a good match for the room; the dimensions are terrible, though, a square with height as half of the other two dimensions.

GR Research GS-9 line array. One in rosewood is just imposingly beautiful too! 
How Many People Here Know About Lenehan Speakers
Great speakers which deserve to be better known.

The first link doesn't work for me. 
2 REL Strata Subs and Mono amps
Zormi, I forgot to add that you should copy the grounding scheme of the pag. 12 (top) example for the (bottom) example, of course. I think the chassis screw grounding will work for Krells, but ask them first just to make sure. 
2 REL Strata Subs and Mono amps
Good that you say that, I thought about it but at the end didn't write anything. I used my REL Storms with mono and stereo amps at different times. The example on pag. 12 (top) of the REL manual is of course for a stereo amplifier; for mono amplif... 
2 REL Strata Subs and Mono amps
The C1 IIs sound better than the Mk Is, but I would take that Diablo bargain from your dealer in two seconds flat!By the way, I used a Storm III for many years with several speakers, including B&W Matrix 805s, 805s and 804s. One thing most peo... 
2 REL Strata Subs and Mono amps
Zormi, I normally don't suggest components unless the poster asks or presents alternatives himself. In your case, I would suggest giving a good listening to the Confidence C1 IIs at about half the Diablo's price. In my humble opinion they are amon...

Zormi, I would like to know what your main speakers are, because I believe you have a totally different problem to Jdolgin, and it hasn't been addressed: you have an active crossover in your system (Krell Phantom's crossover board option) and RELs... 
Clearaudio Concept or Rega RP6?
I would go for the Rega. It's pretty good at the price and there is an upgrade path as funds become available, here. To start, go for the Rega Drive Belt Upgrade. I'm sure Funk will also be modifying the RP6 arm in the near future. 
$165k - $200k speaker performance for $40k ?
I am also a fan of Lenehans, but here we're talking 16,000 cubic feet of space. Same thing with Q3s in Jerry's 4,200 cu.ft. room. Apples and oranges. 
$165k - $200k speaker performance for $40k ?
I have thought about this for some time. I would answer "yes" to your question, provided you like planar speaker sound. And remember you would need a lot of power for those Magnepans.I disagree with Mapman regarding subs. A pair of big REL G1s or ... 
Tannoy Westminster amp matching question.
Since you already own good temporary amplifiers, the idea of saving to purchase a great tube amp is a wise one. I would add one the list that may solve any power problem: Manley Neo-Classic SE/PP 300B (11W/24W) for different times of day/mood and ... 
Amplifier for Quads
I agree with Charles1dad; Roger Modjesky designed his RM-10 specifically for his own Quad ESL-57s.
