All speakers and audio systems in the world sound veiled and bright that includes $100k cd player, $million speakers, $100k power amp, $20k power cords, etc.

Agreed, that doesn't mean I don't like them, just not as much as live music. If I could have Norah Jones or Billy Joel at the piano in my living room or a CD you know which one I (but not everyone apparently) would choose. 

The sounds of surround receivers are not good and can't compete to the sound of a good stereo amp.

My Onkyo receiver sounds "good" but my Carver amp is in another league, agreed. BUT, the gap is getting narrower every year.

2 channel set up is easier to make smoother musical sound and better for long term listening music.

I can't disagree, you can see my desktop system and my home theater, no question my desktop system was easier and still sounds quite satisfying for casual listening.

I see your room, love your system. When I look at the pictures two things come to mind (for me, but you won’t likely agree), the big TV and speakers SCREAM "give me a center channel" and the ceiling screams acoustic cloud. However, that is me :).

Perfect, you will be very astounded...Read about Choueri , it is really a genius in audio...

For the headphone, you will not like it...

This is an old headphone, AKG K340 , he aged not well... And i make modifications to it...But you can buy it for peanuts then , dont be angry at me if you dont like it... 😁 For me it is my favorite...

And i did not like it so much the first day... It takes me 6 months to optimize it...

buy a contemporary headphone , a top one.... budget seems not for you a problem as it is for me... 😊

By the way i take a plunge, and buy the microzotl 2 as pre-amp for my Sansui AU 7700 to serve my headphone...
