Hi
You surely have put together a respectable and good system.
And I admire your writing and intelligent use of language!
Too many casually toss out difficult to follow diatribes.
Surely, a unique and interesting room. Super fun. Although I agree that your listening position would be much better served by moving, at least, the central seats up to create the equilateral triangle required for proper sound staging, imaging and focus. One simple change to help a lot. And, IME, money best spent would be the Podium platforms for the speakers and SRA platforms for, at least, the amp and preamp. Basically, allowing the speakers and components to function as design will be a huge upgrade. Vibration control is a major issue. IME, a $10K speaker with the proper platforms will then sound like $20K ones. And a similar improvement to the components. Changing out components can be very significant but also a bit of a risk. Vibration control is a sure thing. Wishing you the best to more fully enjoy!
