is it possible to connect a subwoofer to Crown XLS amps?
The Crown has an line level loop out of the 1/4" connectors.You'll just need to buy RCA to 1/4" adapters and then run the line level out to you sub.Done.

Bought a pair of Magnepan LRS. Should I buy a Schiit Vidar or Bryston 3B-ST?
Noble100I don't believe many folks will be disappointed by the LRS.i believe they are basically smaller versions of their larger offerings.YMMW but the LRS's are a wonderful speakers price notwithstanding.

I'm running mine off a Crown XLS 1502 525 watts into 4 ohms.Surprise surprise they sound fantastic. My Peachtree Nova 150 is serving now as a preamp. I just added a Schiit Modi 3 DAC (out curiousity for $99). Again, believe it or not this combinat...

Integrated Amp Advice - Rogue Sphinx or Peachtree nova150?
" How is the DAC and phono stage in the nova? "I'd say respectable / good sounding. Quiet without any background noise, Preamp has exceptional S/N ratio.Overall a solid unit. It will drive the 4 ohm load / low sensitivity very nicely.   
Integrated Amp Advice - Rogue Sphinx or Peachtree nova150?
Great price on the Peachtree. I personally would snag it for under a grand. Plus you can upgrade to a different amp down the road using the Nova 150 as the front end preamp / DAC combo. Excellent with room to upgrade worked for me. 
A moderate priced dac
The Schiit Modi 3 is an awesome bare bones DAC.Pay more money if that is important to you one way or another.But you may be very surprised by this one,
