Bass leaves after amp warms up?

Krell man, I'm going with number 3.

Rrog,

That's what it really sounds like to me too.

I have request to borrow Musical Fidelity M6 250 dedicated amplifer from my dealer.That way I'll know if the amp or speakers need to be changed.
Hope he will lend it to me,I'll report back.
Did anyone listen to the 2 versions of Respect yourself by Staple singers that I set out?
You would hear one version has the right groove in the bass the other doesen't at all.

I had a Musical Fidelity A308cr power amp for a few years and it was excellent. If the M6 is anything like the A308cr, I don't think that's the problem.

If it is, this is the Class D amp that I use and it will take a hold of your speakers and tell them what to do: http://app.audiogon.com/listings/solid-state-spectron-audio-musician-iii-mk2-w-free-v-cap-upgarde-new-sealed-2013-04-03-amplifiers-91325 Tell them that you want it without the V-Cap upgrade and see if you can't get it $3,500.00.

You may want to borrow someone's CD player that is better than yours and see if that's not a problem. If it is, relax and wait until you can afford a better one.

I did listen to the two files but had trouble identifying the difference (my current system does not go very low in the bass, however). Both sounded extremely bright and spitty. How did you record them?
