My answer is the same as yours for number 1. Amps start with the transformers - I am inclined to believe based on the sound that Audio Note makes the best transformers in the industry. Some high end companies secretly or not so secretly buy them and other parts from them. Can't get away from the parts quality.
2 Line Magnetic 219IA because I like the 211/845 bigger fuller sound and Audio Note is just SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO expensive. Line Magnetic designs and builds their own transformers based on Western Electric - so if you're going to "copy" copy from the standard playbook and then overbuild it.
3 Intention is to buy a preamp (likely from Audio Note). I want to try Line Magnetic's preamps but Audio Note is ultimately more refined - albeit this is somewhat difficult to assess since both make different tube output amplifiers - LM is 845/212 and AN is more 300B/211/2A3/45
There are some other ones that interest me but I also don;t want to screw up the synergy with my AN E.
