Would you buy a 12-14 year old Integrated?
Just found out it was sold new in 2008, so I'm feeling better.

wow, never thought about replacing old capacitors. Is that an issue that will effect SQ? 
Speakers: Isolation?
@james1969 nice system.  I'd be more comfortable using roller blocks on hardwood.  I'm on carpeting now.

@james1969 so the metal ball is sandwiched between the top and bottom puck?  Thanks!  I'll check out your profile and look for your picture

Can anybody tell me if there's a fuse inside the Yamaha cd-s1000 SACD Player?
I have the cd-s2100 also.  Curious as to why you took the top off? 
Does a new cd transport require break-in time?

I'll watch for that DVD.  I'm going to audition Legacy Classic HD-$5000, Klipsch Forte 3's, (I know, I know Klipsch)- $3600.  There is another dealer that carries Paradigm F85's and F95's for another try.  Don't know what the Paradigm cost though
