Mcintosh mc451 mono - anybody use this new dual amplifier?
That would probably be great!   The 1.2Ks even better since the 3500s put out a lot more than 350 watts.

Get a pair of MC3500 Mk2s.  They have plenty of power and grip on the bass and it is more advanced than the 2301 tube component.  No need to bi-wire.  Just solid, simple power, grip, airiness and finesse.  Amazing amps.    
Are REL the most Musical Subs?
I have a pair of Rhythmik E15HP2 subs and they are amazingly musical and have integrated very well with my Harbeth 40.3XDs.   The speakers and subs disappear into a fluid, deep and wide soundstage.

We can take the “height” issue off the table.  The Tontregers place the tweeter too low for my application.  The optimal height to raise the 40.3 is pretty close to the height of the sub.

“Are those the 40.3 XDs?”   Yes. Paired with an Accuphase E800.

Thanks Soix.  You are confirming what my inner common sense is telling me.    
Speaker Cable, matching to Harbeth 40.2
Wireworld Mini Eclipse?  
speaker cables under 1k for Harbeth 30.2XD?
How about Wireworld Mini Eclipse 8 with Harbeth 40.3 and an Accuphase E-800?  
What are good amps for Focal Maestro Evo
My Scala EVOs are connected to a pair of McIntosh MC3500 Mk II. They sound great.    
15k for streamer and dac....how much on each?
I second the recommendation of an Esoteric N-01XD.  I love mine.   
Floorstanding speaker experiences/recommendations in the $12-25k range
Used Focal Scala Utopia EVOs are in that range or just above it.    
Aurender A15 or N200 with Mac C2700
Thanks. I really did not do much comparison. It was in the Mac system that I demoed at Overure. They said that they use the Esoteric for most demos. So I bought it.  
McIntosh MC 901 vs MC 3500 Mk2
The 901s take up a lot of floor space.    
McIntosh MC 901 vs MC 3500 Mk2
I went with the 3500.   I really like them.

Doboree - I only listened to the N05-XD.  By the time that I was looking, the XD was the current model.
