Dynamics at lower volumes?
I noticed that my Aerial 9's are able to sound great at low to moderate sound levels. Some speakers sound much better at higher volumes. Maybe it is the array that features a larger number of medium size drivers. 
Which purchase tipped you into nirvana.

Buy tubes from Audio Research or not

Best sound in old late 70s early 80s receivers
Tandberg, Carver, Revox and LuxmanMy favorites are Carver 2000, Revox B285 and the super rare Tandberg 3080They are getting old and may need service now or soon! 
Buy LED, LCD or Plasma
My choice is one of the Panasonic Plasmas, the second line from the top is the best deal. Only issue is the Panasonic may not stream movies directly from Netflix. You can stream other companies directly or from a streaming DVD player or Roku
