Capital Audio Fest Notes
Ha it shows indeed I thought the Kharma/c-j room was terrible one of my least favorites. i thought the Volti Razz were great especially considering they were by far one of the cheapest speakers at the show at $5900. 
Capital Audiofest, save thyself!
@beeswax I thought it was ok not great even without the hum but we all hear differently.

The problem with the LKV room, on Saturday at least, was the fairly loud hum in the left channel. And agreed on music though my problem with it was endless female vocals. I never want to hear Diana Krall again in my life! 
Capital Audio Fest Notes
I was there yesterday personally I fled the Dr Vinyl room almost immediately due to the crushingly loud volume!Some rooms/gear I liked: Treehaus Audio room was quite good first of all staggeringly good industrial design speakers and electronics ...

@geof3 not to "cherry pick a stat" but over 5 million Covid deaths and counting worldwide. It is not the flu or comparable to it in any way. 
How to listen /audition at audio shows?
I also agree @tvad nailed it you're listening to a system. If you like the system then you may like the streamer you may not. Also consider with a streamer functionality and interface are on par with sound quality in terms of importance. 
Meridian M30 Active Speakers
Why not reach out to Meridian and see what they say? Also good advice make sure it really is the driver and not the bass amp. BTW that c-j PV7 you have is an excellent sounding preamp I would suggest using it over the Carver. 
Anyone know a good tube preamp tech in NYC

A sincere Thank You to AudiogoN members for the congeniality and sharing!

Advice for integrated for Kef 105/3 reference speakers my friend inherited
Your friend has good British speakers and the Brits excel at integrated amps how about something like this Linn Majik? No relation to the seller just browsed through some used integrateds and it caught my eye.https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/64... 
Mono solves all
I thought it was a Matrix reference in any case people around here have a short fuse for fuse humor. 
Manley NEO-CLASSIC 500 Monos, enough power for Audio Physic Avanti?
I would say so 275 tube watts is tremendous power.
