Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
Opinions are not facts even in the context here. All you have with any 100% subjective topic is subjective belief, the only "fact" is your belief of your preference and opinion. Facts are universal not individual.

Opinions are not facts. Sound preference isn't a fact, we don't get to make up  facts.   
My take on subjective vs. objective
It's not being objective that reliably creates good results, but careful testing of objective claims  Knowing human senses are fallible and accepting the results of tests over your senses is objective.  I make an "objective claim" 2 DACs that m...

You need to think a little more.   
Anyone else feel like it’s the Wild Wild West?
The best I've ever heard Dutch and Dutch 8c direct wired to switch coming from router. You're lost in a subjective wilderness,  getting incredible sound  in streaming is easy and exponentially cheaper than vinyl. The only flat earthers I see are t... 
Perspective system advise needed.
You don’t need to go down the rabbit hole of DACs it’s one of the least important components in a system unless it's a distortion generator. You definitely don’t need to watch YouTube videos from PS Audio. The active speakers you’ve mentioned all ... 
Perspective system advise needed.
Still, my impression of a Terminator II and Terminator Plus is that these would give me a much more refined and life-like sound compared to the built-in DAC in my NODE streamer or most of the wireless speakers you have mentioned. The speakers I...

You don’t need a DAC for Genelec the ones speakers. The new KEF LS60 would work in a small room, again no DAC or streamer needed. Dutch and Dutch 8c another with built in DAC and streaming if using Roon.  I've never heard the A500 but I have tried... 
Any experience with Mini DSP SHD Studio in 2 ch system?
Are you trying to integrate subwoofers with your main speakers?   
What the ship just happened?
FedEx drops boxes as well. I am leery of buying an amp without original boxes but no way would I pack an amp the way you have described. I would still use a double box and pack tight in both.   
Roon "Lost control of audio device"?
If nothing else works you could try RAATServer refresh.   Create a Backup of your current Roon database Exit out of Roon Navigate to your Roon’s Database Location 5 Find the folder that says “RAATServer” Rename the “RAATServer” folder to “... 
How to Solve High-Frequency Suckout in Room?
I thought there had to be a load on the amp to measure this  with multimeter but I might be wrong.    
The thing about objectivists is...
Yes, it was sarcasm, which is a proper response to a nonsense thread.  
How to Solve High-Frequency Suckout in Room?
Play the  1 kHz test tone into  speakers don't play so loudly that it damages your speakers. Set your voltmeter for AC Volts. Measure the volts across the speaker terminals. Power is: E²/R where E = volts RMS and R is resistance of load. Both chan... 
How to Solve High-Frequency Suckout in Room?
Take it to the shop where they can put test equipment on it. If you had a multimeter you could run the 1khz test tone at 0db on the volume and see what the volts are on each side.
