speaker guidance for R&R mostly
You have a very Valid point. Thank you, I did a lot of reading and investigating yesterday on the ATC scm-40. The New price used to be around 8K, and your post shows $5999, a nice price drop for new. As I read further, several of the articles real... 
Can you have too much speaker presence?
As I currently have a post about looking at New or Used speakers,it's interesting this post came up. I had a small second room set up  13x13" give or take and a pair of Aria948 Focals, with nice electronics. Too much bass, no matter what I tried. ...

speaker guidance for R&R mostly
I forgot to mention, relative to above, would like to stay around 10k to 12k used if it would buy me more speaker. Flexible somewhat.   
Does anyone have any experience with Trenner & Friedl "ART" monitor
recklesskelly  thanks for the input. As I said above, other than hearing them on a you tube video ,had never heard the name, or on Audogon forum as far as i recall.  I have relatively small room (above post) Really like my Fritz speakers, but, alw... 
Does anyone have any experience with Trenner & Friedl "ART" monitor
Larry, thanks so much for the response. Currently using Fritz Carbon 7SE mk 2 bookshelf, and really like them. I heard the ART on a u tube video through some very nice computer monitors and the sound was great. When I looked them up, I couldn't be... 
BEST CD TRANSPORT
Charles 1DAD, Is spot on with the RS2T transport.  I have 2 systems,  the smaller and less expensive one uses a Audiolab 6000CDT and sounds great with an Benchmark 3B DAC. The more expensive one uses The RS2T with a Meitner Ma1 V2 Dac  and sounds ... 
Subwoofer
I have 2 SVS subs, smaller room SB3000 and larger primary room SVS SB4000. Smaller sub RCA  hook up and larger balanced. Love them, as they are both operated via Bluetooth for their adjustments. No more getting up and down 400 times to adjust thin... 
Can I Trust The Music Room's Product Description?
Have had many great dealing with the Music Room. Sales and purchases. I had a bad experience with a RST2 transport (New) and finally after returning 2 units the 3rd was a charm. They were great with every time and very apologetic. They were determ...

New Project RS2T transport
As Charles one has stated, I concur. Charles has helped me numerous times with his expertise as I have little. I trust and listen to his posts often for that reason. As a result I bought my third one, hesitantly.       I just can't get over how i... 
New Project RS2T transport
Bernardo. just adding my 2 cents. I am on my 3rd one, as the previous have been defective. The newest one is doing just fine, SO FAR!!!  about 7 months, maybe 8? I have added a Linear power supply from LT Audio and a good grade Anti cable Power ca...

Thank you all for your input. That's why this forum is so great. As a novice, that just likes to listen to GOOD music, I depend on everyone for guidance, and have never felt belittled for asking. Thanks,   Robert TN  
Warming up equipment
Thanks all. Much appreciated. I only have a chance to listen 2 or 3 times a week, I will always start the pre amp first (Benchmark LA-4) then the amp. Good advice. Thank you
