Do Harbeth speakers really need a 4000 damping factor?
"Do Harbeth speakers really need a 4000 damping factor?" No! I use tube amps with a low damping factor of 20 with my Harbeths. I          doubt getting an amp with a 4000 damping factor will improve anything!  
Pass Labs XA30.5 Fuse Issue/Question
" I tested the amp with a different set of speakers and a different source/preamp, but the same issue occurred every time." You should return the amp and get a refund from TMR. It sounds like that Pass is a lemon!  
Yamaha RN-2000a
If you are set on a new receiver this Magnum Dynalab just might be the ticket. BTW, the amp and preamp section is Sim Audio (Moon)! https://www.magnumdynalab.com/md-209-hybrid-fm-receiver/  
Integrated Tube Amp approx. $2,500
This Quicksilver should fit the bill! https://quicksilveraudio.com/products/integrated-amplifier/

Proac Response 3.8 stereo imaging is not centered
It sounds like an out of phase problem. Reverse the positive and negative on the speaker and see if that fixes the problem. It’s a shot in the dark but you have nothin’ to lose givin’ that a try!!

NOS Tube Recommendation for Quicksilver Phono Pre Amp
@crawfishdaddi I have that preamp. The only tube location that is labeled is the gain tube. Can you please tell me where is the cathode and the input tube position located? Thanks!
