Subwoofer connection to integrated
I would run a bi-wire configuration. One run to the montors and one run to the sub.That way you don't have the low pass affecting your monitors. 
Cayin A-88t vs. Almarro A318B
I've put a Black Treasure CV181-Z tube in the 6SN7 tube slot and was blown away with the results.The sound stage opened up by a huge margin. Width and depth. Tonal ballance is perfect and the extention on both ends are increadable.I'm using a Tung... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
I've ordered my Lore's and they should arrive in the next week or so. He says 5 day turnover but I don't think that's going to happen.My previous speaker was a Monitor Audio RS6. A VERY highly reviewed speaker with just cause. They were fantastic ... 
Adding Sub to current system
To touch on the question of what your missing is questionable.I can live with a well imaging speaker that rolls off at 40hz.But you're missing about 10% of the music. If that much.Good 40hz bass is MUCH better that bloated anything lower.Sub's are...

Speaker connections: Spade vs. Banana Plus
If you use a high quality solid copper adapter, you should not hear a sonic differance.On the other hand, if you use 24k plated brass ( which in most cases if it's 24k plated it is brass ) they do have a sonic signature. Get the best you can.

I guess you have a point. But if I was marketing a line of speakers that have much more expensive equipment, I would try to steer you toward the more expensive speakers. He didn't know I was looking to buy just that speaker.Besides, what little I ... 
Suggestions/Help?
>Should other pieces of my system be upgraded first?<I noted that you asked if you should upgrade other componants first and thought I'd suggest a way to save you some yen for those upgrades.What you have listed looks very good to me.FWIW

I spoke to Jonathan Tinn about these speakers and he told me they were the most impressive speaker he'd ever heard even close to the price point. Jonathan has heard everything on the market and he was very excited when talking about the MMMicro On...
