I'm happy with the Yamaha P5000S. Among other options, I'm considering the Magnepan 3.7i speakers in the future and I spoke to a dealer today who told me this Yamaha amp would be a very good match for those speakers (or the 1.7i's). They have both... 
New system has fatiguing, harsh high frequency sounds. How to fix?

@arafiq  "...the OPs behavior is quite elusive in this regard..."I have been both polite and direct in saying that I'm not here to discuss my personal reasons for shopping where I shop. Geez.If some of you wish to continue to indulge your preoccup...

@jl35 I would think Amazon would cut you off after too many free returns of large, heavy items...Don't confuse Amazon as a platform (or a corporate entity) with the independent 3rd party sellers on the Amazon marketplace. I'm coming to realize tha...

@gnason I am sure your meditation music would sound great on them, but they will really shine when you play acoustic music, which has more range and depth than what I heard on the YouTube link you posted. FYI, that "meditation music", as you cal...

@lou_setriodes no, you are wrong. To set the record straight, I'm not trolling or phishing or in any other way conducting research on other people. Period.

@imhififan My Yamaha P5000S power amp doesn't sound anything like the Yamaha A-S801 integrated amp in my opinion. So maybe comparing it to a Yamaha A/V receiver wouldn't be appropriate.I sent the 801 back and kept the P5000S.The Yamaha P5000S even... 
DAC for either Roon or HQPlayer on Linux?
Here's a DAC I just read about.exaSound’s e32 stereo flagship DAC https://www.exasound.com/e32/e32DACOverview.aspxIt's above my budget, but maybe within reach later if the sound difference is really significant compared to a TEAC NT-503 or OPPO So...

@caroleg - thanks for the extra information.RE: "...but have to admit, I am longing for the T2s with their monoblock amps after that listen!"I have been feeling a little hesitant to listen to equipment beyond my budget and that's the reason why! lol

@yyzsantabarbara - Yes, that's another valid point. One will often pay retail or above retail when shopping for certain products on Amazon. It's absolutely ignorant to say that the independent third party merchants selling on Amazon.com, who often...

I'm not here to promote Amazon (or BestBuy). I am not suggesting Amazon is an ideal place to buy high end audio gear. I came here to get answers to a specific question, and I have gotten a lot of good answers. I appreciate all of those. That's goi...

FYI when someone posts an Amazon link with a tag=XXXXX-20 parameter, it is an affiliate link. That means they will get paid if you buy from that link.@cheapbob I thought you were just trolling me until I saw the affiliate link. Definitely will not...

@clarinetmonster2 Thanks for the info about Elacs and the Sonus faber Venere S. I will look closer at both options. As you know, stuff on Amazon can go out of stock and come back into stock any time, so I'll keep an eye open for the Elac FS407.

@gnason Thanks for the suggestion. I have been hearing good things about B&W speakers. But aren't the CM10 S2 an older model?  Maybe discontinued? I thought the B&W's to look at now were the 700 (or 800) series. Probably, I'm confused. All...
