Anyone notice SVHS Audio best other Analog equipment including turntables, cassette decks.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I think copying an LP or CD to any analog tape format is a waste of time! 
Are Lamm preamps hard on tubes?
There are plenty of Russian tubes made before the fall of the Soviet Union. These are indeed NOS! Certainly cheaper than expensive hyped - and used! - Mullards and Tele's! 
What is wrong with my system?
-1 thyce! The farther a woofer is from the wall/floor boundary the worse it's response. This can be verified by measurements. Changing the crossover caps is a futile and money-wasting endeavor!

+1 pgaulke60! My apologies - I missed seeing your post! You at least understand the importance of room placement!  
What is wrong with my system?
None of the posters above me have got it right! Change the preamp, change the amps, change the interconnects, get a  power conditioner ... What malarkey and lack of understanding of basic acoustic principles! 
What is wrong with my system?
Place the 802D's against the wall for the best/flattest bass! The farther out in the room the most uneven bass. This applies to all box speakers. Roy Allison investigated this phenomenon 40+ years ago! Subsequently it was called the Allison Effect... 
What is wrong with my system?
"Sitting with one's ears 5 - 10° below the tweeter axis gives the flattest treble." - JA gives sound advice!

Go back and read the responses to your earlier thread. 
Review : Amazon Basics Passive Bookshelf speaker and Audiocrast A54 stereo interconnect
+1 honda6! This hobby needs more good affordable gear! The Wharfdale Diamonds are similar but more costly! 
JBL L100 Classic 75
I have the 4311's and the L166's! A sound that was ideal for 70's Rock! 
What are your top 5 Billboard top 10 songs of the 1970"s?
The OP wants the Top 5 or 10 songs of the 70's on the Billboard chart! NOT the songs you remember fondly! 
What are your top 5 Billboard top 10 songs of the 1970"s?
I included Hey Jude because its record of nine straight weeks at No.1 stood until 1977! That's the Disco era! 
Musical Paradise mp301 sounds bright
What are the output tubes in the mp301?  Triodes like the 45, 2A3 and 300B have a smoother high end than beam power tubes (6L6 family) and pentodes (6BQ5/EL84 and EL34). 
Musical Paradise mp301 sounds bright
There are many CDs of all genres that are inherently bright sounding! Classical and Jazz tend to fare much better! Rock is often the worst for boosted treble! Yes, the Loki will work!  
The first system you had that was "high end/audiophile", by you standards
Infinity Monitors with Walsh tweeters, AGI 511 preamp, GAS Son of Ampzilla, Ariston RDIIS TT, JH Formula 4 arm, GAS Sleeping Beauty mc cartridge, Verion SUT, Verion Triaxial ICs. All circa '78!
