Looking for the next level in imaging...
Room treatment critical for imaging, quality of drivers critical (take B&W diamond tweeter for instance). My eye opening experience in 1987. Using Magnapan SMGs when I walked into Stereo shop and heard some good dynamic floor standers (Conrad ... 
Coping with single sided deafness in right ear
Balance control will help. Another sneaky condition is AMD (usually called Wet AMD). you’ll be losing vision in one eye but you don’t notice because your brain is so good at compensating. Google "Amsler chart" and use it from time-to-time. The so... 
Revel Performa3 Cabinet Defect
Had problems with the veneer on some previous speakers. The veneer would show "splits" based on humidity. Not cracks but separation of the veneer. It's amazing how thin you can make this stuff. My guess is half the thickness of notebook paper. Th...

OPpo 205.... Awesome !!

Wool Blankets as Room treatment
BE CAREFUL! Only buy Pendelton from factory website or Amazon. I bought from a "Pop-Up" ad (which looked legit) but the bill said something like "Murphy's Feed and Farm Implements" some where in New England. Use caution.  
How would you spend my next $5K?
I like your idea for super-tweeters. You want as much "atmosphere" (illusion of space) in your smallish room as possible. Just make sure you can return if they don't work. Is Townshend still making these?  
Found a Milty Zerostat alternative
I believe the Zerostat came with an attachment that snugged onto the ion exit (like a flash hider on an AR). When you squeezed the trigger, it would make the gizmo light up (may be an hallucination I'm remembering). The best trick is to spray the... 
Found a Milty Zerostat alternative
Zerostats used to be MUCH stronger (e.g. 1980s) than today. Could almost see sparks shooting out. Then, they changed the internal element to something weaker. Still works but not the same.
