Adcom GFA 555 II
Agree with roberjerman, any bridged amp should not be used with a speaker having an impedance of less than 8 ohms. 
Dragon, RX-505 or DR-2 ?
The Dragon and RX-505 have the same transport, which was Nakamichi's best. The DR-2 was a somewhat cheaper design, although still better than most other brands of cassette decks. Sounds like the DR-2 may be priced a little high, but it would be my...

Recommended sources for tubes
"Yes why, inquiring minds want to know."Title should be, Recommended source components for tube system.Just typical nowadays of how people don't use enough words in a phrase leaving it to have multiple different meanings.

PrimaLuna Prologue one speaker match

Center Channel with Magnepan .7: Magnepan mmg-c vs Kilpsch
The center channel should be timbre matched to the L&R. The absolutely perfect timbre match would be a third 0.7, so the further away you move from that scenario, the more degradation is created for the overall front sound presentation. 
H.H. Scott 299-C Faceplate Needed
Agree that the "big auction site" is the place to find one, although a very nice condition faceplate only may be rare. You may need to purchase a non-working unit with a nice faceplate, make a swap, then sell the non-working unit. 
Any Single Speaker suggestions for use with chromecast r
