Need to recap my Classe Audio DR-8 Amps - need suggestions
You can try United Radio in East Syracuse NY or George Meyer AV in Los Angeles.FYI: age is not a reason to replace capacitors. When they get worn out the amp will let you know with buzzing and loss of definition in the bass. If they work, leave ... 
Recommendations for a few high SQ classical CDs
In my opinion...Beethoven 9: Staatskapelle Berlin, Omar Suitner, Denon PCM (Nippon Columbia) 1982https://www.amazon.com/Beethoven-Symphony-No-9-Choral/dp/B003RECFJU/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&a...Mahler 4: Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Fritz... 
Replacing fuse
No. The design engineer knows the expected fault current and from there determines how much time to melt the fuse, and that corresponds to 6.3 amps for your device. 
Question of power
Power conditioners do not make electricity (the same way pumps can't make water when the source dries up). Your amps each draw 12 amnps and that's why the mfr requires a dedicated line because the 120 volt outlet will most likely "dry up" by a tri... 
Aurender N100H
I, too, have no problems. On the General Settings, turn off "Show only albums with covers" and turn off "Restore filter".Also try opening the metadata of a sample file and remove all the artwork. Then place the the album picture file in the same s... 
Soulution preamp DC-offset protection
I would check the CD processor to see if that preamp indicator light is functioning properly. Download a 0 dBFS test signal at 50 or 50 hertz and burn it to a CD. Play the disc and measure for DC at the outputs with a DMM. If it is zero (or below ... 
There should be a "Rant" category...
Whether it's unreasonable or not depends on what did you want more -- the equipment or 100% of the asking price sitting in your checking account?

Help! Power question
Call an electrician. There is probably a loose lug connection in the meter pan or main panel on one of the phases. 
What is an acceptable level of transformer hum on a Krell S300i?
If the hum appears to be greater than 60 hz and floating the ground does not help, it could very well be the power supply capacitors need replacing. 
Shipping damage...what would cause capacitors to leak?
That may not be a capacitor and instead could be melted rubber. Is there any sound dampening material in the chassis? The only sure way to know is for a tech to look at it.Capacitors can withstand temperatures to 85C or higher. I doubt the tempera... 
Streaming Music and being able to keep them as your personel files
You may want to contact Tidal support and ask them how to transfer their property onto your laptop.  The only way I know of is to purchase the tracks/albums you want to keep after your subscription.  
Building a listening room from scratch
I would flatten the ceiling 9 feet above the floor to a) get rid of the sharp corner for acoustic purposes and b) to allow for space for the rafter air space insulation to empty into, with louvers on each end... instead of a ridge vent. 
Pre amps cost vs. value ... what I discovered last month.
I would want to know if the Boulder is performing to spec before I agree with your cost vs value assessment.
