Bose 901 VI flat?
I have to weigh in.  I had 901 vi’s with 100 wpc and they were a disappointment and I sold them.  I now have them again, but now in a large and difficult room, with a 10” Martin Logan sub, powered by 650 wpc mono’s.  They are astonishing in that r... 
Upgrade to McIntosh
Ayon IS great stuff, but not always easy to find or contend with receiving those beasts on a pallet.  I too have an MA12000, but find it more than awesome in my setup.  Both units are beautiful in their own way and a joy to be around.  
Raven 300B integrated
Interesting… they seem well built, priced right and proud of their work.  Read through some of the linked discussions from a few years ago and can’t figure out what that was all about with KD and PrimaLuna.  I don’t find PL compelling and am Chine... 
McIntosh
In that case, I think you’d be happy with it.  It’s very clean aesthetically and musically.  I’ve paired mine with an MHA150 and love the result.

I have an MB50…it’s ok, but crippled by the Play-Fi restriction and the bad app  
Why are there so many wooden box speakers out there?
Andrew Jones is out with a new concentric two-way….it’s a box.     oh dear.  
Why are there so many wooden box speakers out there?
K some think outside “the box,” but with a keen eye on making a living.  Bose 901 with its novel driver array and extruded final form comes to mind, as does Ohm with essentially no box at all.  A marketplace doesn’t always reward the crazy ones, ... 
Klipsch Speakers
I have La Scalla’s and found Cambridge Edge Monos and an Edge NQ to be a good combination.  I do have a Canton sub for anything below 65Hz.  I find them to be anything but bright, and a joy to listen to.

Speaker polyamory -- or, stories about getting a second set to alternate with your primary
I have B&O, Kef, Ohm, Klipsch and, gasp, Bose 901’s.  Each has endlessly fascinating response to the rooms they are located.  I don’t regard one better than the other, only marvel at the differences.  Switching hardware has similar results and... 
Competitive class D amp suggestions
+1 to the Elacs.  1U format, cool running, sound great and the price is nice.  
What's the heaviest speaker you've ever owned? What's the tallest?
LaScallas.  Tallest….stacked Large Advents…probably close in weight to one Klipsch  
Qobuz Skipping or Short Pauses
I have the same problem and it occurs in multiple locations with different providers and hardware suites.  It is rare and intermittent, and seems to be on the server side.

I ordered 5000’s way before the insanity began, and they still took some time between order date and delivery.  This is not a production line product.  Like you I have a difficult space, and tried many combinations.  The 5000’s accomplished what n...
