krell FPB300 or jeff rowland model 7
The Pass is too resolute for my system. The BAT sound matches my speakers much better and my speakers (Tyler Acoustics) are not bright at all. I consider them fairly neutral. I understand excess of resolution but it can be fatiguing in some system...

See I disagree with Elberoth2. I didn't care much for the Pass X250 in my system and like the Krell better. The Pass was too resolving and fatiquing for my taste. The .5 series is warmer from my understanding.

332.5 is another really good amp. I heard the 331.5 which is approx 80% the 334. Personally I would rather have the Levinson than all the ones you mention. I have owned the 27, 27.5, 29, had the 331.5 in my system, and a buddy has the 334. The 334... 
Jolida JD-100 vs. Ayre CX-7E
I meant to say the XA-9000 SACD player and not ES. 
Jolida JD-100 vs. Ayre CX-7E
I owned the Jolida for awhile and really liked it especially with NOS tubes. You really can't beat it for the price. After awhile I did notice I was not getting enough detail and resolution so I sold it and bought a Cary 308. The Cary was a notice...

Classe CAM 350's ain't chopped liver either. 
A good power conditionner with tube amps ?
No one has mentioned RSA Haley or Jaco? You better add RSA on your list IMO. 
Most resolving solid state amp you've ever heard?

I have heard the FPB series and you can't go wrong. They are one of the better sounding ss amps I have had the pleasure of listening to. I did hear an older JR lower powered amp and it was nice but not my cup of tea. Was not resolute enough. They ... 
Power cord between wall and Ultimate Outlet?
I used to have an UO. I found the better the powercord from the wall to the UO made the biggest improvement. 
$3000: upgrade Tyler Linbrooks or amplification?
However I bought a cheap little pre an AE-3 on a Lark. The result for my $350 was taking my very good sounding system to the realm of nirvana. So it isn't allways the more money you pour into the system the better. What did it replace? 
INPUT SENS. of a M Levinson 29 in MV????
If that is true THEY have changed. I am not sure if they have an 800# or not but I just suggested this route because I had to get a schematic from them when I had my 29.

Call Madrigal or Harmon International. They are very helpful. 
BAT VK-32 tube preamp or stay with BAT VK-3ix
Congrats Classical1. I said the same thing when I 1st heard the VK55 (non SE). My VK200 had better bass slam but thats where it ended. It was paired with the 5i preamp. This combo has been the most musical my system has sounded. 
Integrated amp for efficient speakers
Gray market Cayins? How do you spot one?
