What is the Bu-ray plauyer that you are using?
Count me in with elliottbnewcombjr Sony here. I spin on the X800 and rip SACDs on a 590. I own Panasonic, Pioneer and Toshiba. The Sony is better.    
I got 127 records from the mid 40, 50 and early 60s that need a lot of cleaning
No substitute for ultrasonic. Cheap Chinese ones work well.  Much better than scrub/vac previously used.    
Audiophile Grade Wall Receptacle
I too have the Oyaide. Best bang per buck. https://www.ebay.com/p/1741120245 You want copper not cheap hospital grade brass.  
How do I get the best soundstage?
Speaker placement.  
"Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question)
1 no.  It's only relative. 2 Does not "resolve" only mitigates, not as much as you imagine.  
The New Western Electric WE91E 300B Integrated amp ?
20 wpc @ 10 % distortion. Not for me and if you need that much gain....  
Life of KT 150 Tubes
I guess don't buy nuttin' without schematics. Or from a source you can ship to for service. From here on.    
The New Western Electric WE91E 300B Integrated amp ?
Looks like 14 wpc at 3% THD to me. Impressed that it only burns 160 w from the wall.  
What do you think of this DAC (DA1000TX) ?
The THD wars of the 70’s produced some dreadful sounding equipment now sold big bucks as "vintage." Anything else I got sounds better than my desktop with coax, toslink and USB outs.  
Does a graphic equalizer show where your amp is lacking?
Erik got that one right.  
Can a great system make a mediocre recording sound good?
Salesmen always spout what moves product. Most poor recordings that used to sound quite musical to me no longer do, on any of 7 systems. My ears have evolved. Don’t know about you or your sales person. Still pretty good on a BT portable however.

Customs and duties in USA bringing and Amplfier from Europe
Never bought an amp there. In my experience (CDT, streamer, headphones etc.) anything bought from a dealer was covered under shipping charges. No customs, no VAT to USA.😎  
I wonder what you would think if we scheduled a monthly Zoom Meeting?
To do: Ras Pi Zoom setup. Some day. Lose the tie.
