Cabinet clearance for Audio Acoustics LS16 tube pre-amp?
Don’t worry about it. I have all my tube gear in cabinets and never a problem. Take a look at my system. Those tube amps have been sitting there for years without any problem. And they sure get a lot hotter than your AR preamp!!

Two integrated amplifiers, tube and solid-state connected to same speakers
There is not a separate power switch to shut off the power amp section on an integrated amp. The amp section will still be active when you use it! 
Modestly priced bookshelf speakers for cabin.
If you like the Bose, why replace them? You might regret making a change!
