Admittedly a bit lost
Merlin monitors on non-spiked massed 24" stands. The lack of spikes will deter vibration through the sub-flooring. Efficient enough for Jolida 40 wpc with great low volume resolution, the speaker will respond linearly with future upgrades. 
Reasonably priced power protection?
No experience with Brickwall, but loads with Furman and it seems to do the job with my Naim Uniti, DAC and Manley gear. 
Suggest budget CDP to use as transport
CEC is quite good and speaks to anyone suspect of transports not making a difference in reproduction. They do. 
CD player problems
With respect to Akg, at the price if the very good Rega Isis, I would simply do a music server such as the Naim Uniti. Have you considered the Rega Saturn as a transport? It is quite good. 
How weird is our world?
Thanks for responses. Experimented and it seems sound is better with arrow towards innards of amp. Facing out back seemed congested. 
Do you Bi-Wire, if you can?
Mostly do not believe in the whole bi-wire syndrome unless the speaker has been specifically designed for it. And I circumvent jumpers by simply using a single wire bridging the same plus/minus termination if possible.I've even done surgery on som... 
Battery power for Trends 10.1
Zd542. I think that just might do the trick. Thanks 
Anyone try Decware silver interconnects?
I've no idea if MAC/RAC is/was the builder of Decware cables. Just know what I hear and always liked MAC ICs. Now i like the Decware because of the Silver Xhadow connectors.

I screwed up
That is a very nice set of cans. Now you must dissect what they have the system does not; mostly involvement.You can keep the Dancers, but the HK hits the road. That is a sterile amp my friend. Find some new life in a different integrated. Borrow ...

Thanks for input. 
Anyone try Decware silver interconnects?
I've the Decware DSR II 1 meter with Silver Xhadow connectors and they are brilliant. Best cables I've run with all of the sought after attributes of detail, imaging and dynamics. Best cable before those were my MAC Mystics. Can be bettered I'm su... 
In Memoriam: Bobby Palkovich of Merlin Music
May Bobby RIP and his remaining family find some solace in the future.I've read through the bulk of these posts and weighed the tenor of them. I enjoy Bobby's incredible product and found the several communiques, personal phone calls and emails wi... 
sudont
I've the Quadraspire Sunoko Vent and it is light years ahead of my Target stand. Quite dynamic, open and controls the bass well. I was shocked by how much better it is than the Target. 
How much am I missing with SL1200 mk2?
Zd542 is dead on.This is a very solid table not prone to delicacy splashing lots of audiophile terminology about. It is a solid performer with an AT cart. What you are 'missing' is lots of air around the instruments, imaging and a black background...
