Recently re-discovered or newly discovered music in your current "heavy rotation"
This year I just heard about Laura Marling and loved her music so much that I bought all of her 5 cd's.  Now a listening sessions doesn't go by without her music.  My favorite one is "A creature I don't know". 
Albums you can listen too all the way through and it's all good
KT Tunstall "Crescent moon" 
... Best Live Recordings ( other than Classical or Opera) on CD...
Check out Nils Lofgren, "Acoustic Live."  My favorite cut is 'Keith don't go' and 'Mud in your eye.' 
Is there (one) song that can start your day and...end your day?
I like to end the night with "Rainy night in Georgia" by Shelby Lynne or "Chimes" by KT Tunstall. 
Subwoofer SVS SB13Ultra vs JL Fathom F110V2
Great suggestion bdp24. I’ve never heard the OB/Dipole sub, but there is a growing camp on the AudioCircle forum that swear by them. It would be fun to demo these and hear what all the hoopla is about. I understand they sound best in larger rooms....

Live From Daryl's House-Shelby Lynne Christmas Special
Just watched episode 61 online w/Shelby and it was Excellent.  I'm a huge fan and have like 5 of her CDs. Definitely worth watching.  I'm not a fan of Daryl.  
OPPO BDP-93 / Loud buzz using RCA Outputs
These kind of things are challenging to figure out. I'd suggest putting energy into trying different things to isolate where exactly the problem is. Mofimadness suggest is excellent. If you still get a buzz then move onto something else like:- try...
