Doozy of an amp question
Sim is Canadian? If so, you may want to make your decision sooner rather than later as there may well be tariffs added to the price.  
A special loudspeaker - Revival Audio Atalante 5
Nice looking speaker at a good price. Looks like they are rated around 4 ohm so a little harder to drive. Also interesting that the manufacturer recommends the use of port plugs if you can't move them away from a wall which could be a bit of a tr... 
Moving from a stereo amp to a dual mono set up
@emergingsoul  I probably should have said to keep them on the same busbar in the panel e.g. if you're on the L1 bus, ensure both breakers are on the L1 bus. I had a ground loop issue until I put both circuits on the same bus. I'm certain there ... 
Moving from a stereo amp to a dual mono set up
If you are running two separate electrical circuits for each amp, you may want to tell your electrician to take them off the same phase. I've had issues with ground loops when I went off opposite phases.  
Pass Lab Amp questions, back of amps, power cable & 12v trigger.
Bryston uses a similar trigger configuration as you describe.   
Ayon Triton Evo Integrated
Nice. What kind of speakers are those?  
Having a Flashback Friday - Airplane Induced

What is your favorite budget streamer?
I have 1 Bluesound vault purchased in July, 2018 and 4 Bluesound streamers purchased shortly after, and all have worked flawlessly.

New Radiant Acoustics Clarity 6.2’s
Cool. Looks to have a sealed box with passive radiator. Not many speakers going in that direction as most are ported.  
Open baffle speakers
I am intrigued by the open baffle speaker, but sadly it seems they must be a ways from a back wall to sound good. At least that's what I heard. In my space, the speakers need to be close to the rear wall so I guess I'll stick with my Harbeths.  
Power Sensitive Components
Just curious, why do you think the power is an issue. Are your lights flickering and dim? Maybe your local news is pointing out issues?  
Does it have to sound good for you to like it?
Bob Dylan at Royal Albert Hall. Probably considered a poor recording. I love that album so count me in on a person that will listen to poor recordings!  
All Hail the meek --yet mighty – NODE 2i
I've got 4 nodes, all older and a bluesound vault. The only issue I had with one node is the black coating became tacky. The Bluesound vault, my oldest Bluesound product will celebrate its 6 year birthday coming this July!  
Suggestions for testing a never installed, 20-year boxed amp.
Just curious: How did you end up coming upon an unused for 20 years boxed up amplifier?
