Why am I experiencing listener's fatigue?
I agree with Phil. IMO B&W's can be dry and border on bright. I did listen to the new diamond series by B&W and was very impressed. It did not sound like B&W, in a good way. Room treatments can help quite a bit. You might try a vinyl s... 
Anybody getting Paradigm Studio 100's to image?
IMO they will probably never image as well as your Dunlavy's. I had the 40's and bought them over the 60's because they imaged better but not great. I think Paradigms are a pretty good speakers at their price point but better to be had out there. ... 
$2K-$4K Integrated w/ HT Bypass?
What speakers do you have? How much power do you want/need? How big is your room. I listened the the A5 and Quad 12L (the larger of the dynamic monitors) and was not impressed at all. I think it was just a bad pairing. Add the SimAudio I-5LE to th...

Help choosing tube monobloc's
I have heard the Rouge M150's at length at my buddy's house and they are very good IMO. He drives Vandy 2C sig's which are not the most efficent speaker and they never run out of juice. I think they sound best in the tri mode as does my buddy. Hav... 
Mini monitors for vinyl....
Try the Quad 11L's or the 12L's. They are pretty darn good for the price. Good luck. 
Which label printer for jewel case edge?
I would think pretty much any ink jet printer would do the trick but, you run the risk of smudging it. Why not just get a cheap laser printer and the appropriate Avery labels? Now you can print documents as well as labels. Good luck. 
Which wire goes where ???? ...

Any Good In Wall Speakers Available?
I used a pair of Paradigm SA-30's for surrounds in my HT setup and they sounded very good. Email me if you would like to discuss in more detail. Good luck 
RELL or Velodyne DD??
I have heard the DD series I think it is a very good sub but, not as musical as the Rel Stadium III but, that is just my opinion. I am definitely not knocking the DD series at all just expressing my opion. 
RELL or Velodyne DD??
IMO Rel's are more musical than Velodyne's. So, if you are going for music only or heavy music, go with the Rel. If you are going with mainly HT, go with the Velodyne. Good luck. 
New speaker with imaging
You might look at the Vandersteen 3A's. Good luck.
