Looking for recommendations for outdoor speakers
@davetheoilguy  Sorry, I guess I need to be more specific. Where are the poles going? Out in the yard facing the listening area? Flanking the Patio? How close to your listening area? How much area are you wanting to cover?   Consider the on wal... 
Looking for recommendations for outdoor speakers
Where are you mounting them?    There are a ton of really great outdoor speakers available so depending on your application and budget I'm happy to help you.  
Need Recommendation for Coffee Shop
I'd suggest a pair of Sonos Era300s and call it done. They sound pretty good, streams every service and you'll be under your budget.  
Connecting stereo to outdoor speakers
Well, this question is very broad and without seeing the area I'll simply give you some generalities. Your simplest solution is to buy a couple of outdoor rated bluetooth speakers and create a stereo pair. There are several companies to choose fr... 
Downsizing from tower to bookshelf
@vette5451  I'll be placing my PS Audio FR5s up for sale this weekend if you're interested  
Matching a amplifier to speakers
@twangy57  I would highly suggest the Anthem STR Power Amp. It'll power any speaker you hook to it (see reviews with measurements and you'll see it's actual power output), looks awesome with the meters (which you can turn off if you don't like th... 
Search for B&W Silver Signature 25/30 Speakers
@jacksonrs  If you liked those, listen to the floor standing version, the SS 30. Truly an amazing sounding speaker.  
Subs?
Take a look at (or listen to) to the DB series B&W subs. For just music I'd take one of those over a JL all day long.  
looking for bookshelves - Another usual boring speaker discussion
I'd give the PS Audio FR5 a consideration too. I sure have been very impressed with mine.   
Studio Electric m4
Why not just set a pair of Fostex super tweeter on top of your SAMs? Madisound has them pretty cheap.  
Any Nashville enthusiasts?
Spring Hill here!! Is this club up and going or?  @bugredmachine   
Anyone try the Kaleidescape Strato V? Seems to eliminate the need for the crazy server?
If you want the best possible audio and video, the KScape stuff is the best. If you intend on buying a bunch movies you'll want a Terra as well. If you are only going to rent stuff then the strato will work.  Keep in mind that KScape is not a str... 
Which subwoofer should I get?
REL is the OPPO of the HiFi world, over-hyped because magazines like The Absolute Sound said it was great but many cheaper alternatives do better. I'll vote for SVS if you want to save a few bucks and like the app. I'll also throw in the Paradi... 
Amp for B&W 802N
Take a look around for the CAM-600 if you can swing the price. Those speakers take a lot of power to get the most out of them. Like soix mentions above, Classe is a fantastic pairing to B&W  
Starting my showroom again
I think I'm in the town you're talking about (maybe lol) and here's my .02c    I've been in the AV industry since 2008 and the first half of those were at a retail brick n mortar and the second half has been in CI world, so two different worlds....
