How to Hook Up Vandersteen 2W Subwoofer
I was going to comment on this one but you have all the info you need. If there's anyone that knows Vandersteen, its John at Audioconnection. You won't get better advice. 
Best preamp 2k or under, new or used
Generally speaking, its a tough question you ask, but its good that you realize the problem is the preamp. Its probably the hardest component to get right. The only preamp I've owned that you have is the PCA-2. I wasn't impressed with it. It had a...

"If the moderators do publish this then they realize that there are a handful of their paid membership that do nothing but control this website to their liking."Can you explain why that would be? I wasn't aware that the moderators read every singl... 
Recommendation Speaker Cable around $1000-$2000
Well, its about time. Thanks Tls49 for questioning my ridiculous post. And you were nice about it too. Aprica88, I in no way meant to offend you. You're welcome to spend your money any way you choose. My first post was just to get you to look at y... 
Recommendation Speaker Cable around $1000-$2000
If it were me, I wouldn't spend more than 2 times whatever the speakers cost on speaker cables. The only exception would be if you are going to bi wire externally (2 separate runs). Use the same pricing structure I list above about not spending mo... 
DV 20X-L: Sutherland, Dynavector P75 or Heed....
The P75 is very underrated. If you match it with a DV cart., you get great sound for not a lot of money.

Help me replace my Rotel 1072
Looking at your system, I have a different option that you may want to consider. My advice is to upgrade your weakest piece. I think we can all agree that your Rotel is not that. Your speakers are exceptional, as well. At their price point, I don'...

Help me replace my Rotel 1072
I agree with Mofimadness 100%. I had one myself. Its the best low cost CD player I've ever heard. Don't get rid of it until you find something that you definitely like more. I replaced mine with an Arcam 33. The Arcam is a little better. You may w... 
Wilson Sophia II..uncommon SS Integrated match ?
My first choice would be an Ayre V5. If you don't like that, maybe something SS from BAT or Pass. They're all good, just different. 
Can a new amplifier affect speaker placement?
I just thought of something you may want to try. Every NAD integrated that I've seen jumps the amp and preamp sections with an external rca jumper, just like your Creek. I would use the Creeks preamp and go directly into the amplifier section of t... 
Another audio dealer closes his shop
Phaelon,I really wasn't trying to start an argument with you. As for the exceptions, were on the same page. Sorry if I wasn't clear on that."Another problem is that there is no qualification process, other than the market place, to determine who c...
