B&W 804: Big improvement over 704?
I have owned several paris and still own a pair of 805 Signatures and a pair of Nautilus 804. Your speakers are definately forward, i would never call them bright or harsh.They are very easily toned down with cabling or tweaks.They should be a pre...

washed up, burnt out, over the hill, best days were 25 years ago, bald and wrinkled, crispy crittered, rehabbed, living in the past,, Hey, Let's see if you can INSTANTLY get 5,000 people whipped into a frenzy from the 1st note, the reason i wrote ... 
What's the "worst" cdp for the money?
Without question or equal,, the Shanling CDT 100 Scarey bad! Its a shame something to beautiful can sound so bad,, my computer drive is better! 
Sub to use with B&W N804
The REL Strata III is a very good match sonically with your speakers,, and no, i dont recommend using a Polk.I now have upgraded to a N 800 that is a bit outside your apparent price range,, The REL will do VERY nicely however! 
What kind sub will connect to Mark Levinson 383?
I believe any of the REL Subs will work magic for you, i know for sure the Storm III and Strata III both have high level inputs and come with the proper cable you will need, and both are very nice subs.Good luck!

An audiophile who know NOTHING about TV
This all really depends on your budget and if you want to do light control in your room.By far the best quality and bang for your proverbial "buck"would be a CRT based projector, however most dealers shy away from them as they are a touch harder t...

You have a very easy problem to solve here!I highly recommend Soliloquy 5.0 monitors or 5.3 floor standing speakers, they are very efficient,, 92 db i believe and have great tonality, depending on your associated gear, you may or may not need a su... 
Fedex or UPS?

Speaker stand recommendation for VA Beethovens
I totally lucked into some Sound Anchors that were made for another model that work great,, unfortunately they are unmarked but they are a basic T design and only about 2 1/2"in height. I think the dealer said they were for Vandersteens but don't ... 
Where's Slappy Been Lately ???
Yall musta missed the "my center channel sounds muted" thread he posted not long ago,, Maybe he has his head in,,, a speaker? lol 
Vienna Beethoven Owners--I need your advice
I use my Beethovens in conjunction with a Wadia 830 and Linar 250 amp connected by Transparent Ref Balanced and as of now, just some basic speaker wires and Michael Wolff power cords, I would definately say these speakers are very natural sounding... 
Power Cord for Resolution Audio Opus 21
I have heard Michael Wolff cords on the Opus 21 and indeed, they sound very nice, the price is reasonable and if you dont like it, he will refund your money, it can't be beat for the price. 
Please Help, Speakers for B&K 307???
Pretty much everything you have listed there is quite a level above your other listed components,, you may want to consider steering him towards better upstream gear before laying out that much on speakers, i would carefully consider cabling as we... 
Front projection or not?
Front projection (even with moderate amounts or less) is FAR superiour format and VERY reasonable, my old projector was a very basic Toshiba MT7U and had a fantastic picture.I now use a lower light output CRT but i have a dark room for it, you can...
