Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker
After listening to your videos about the cables you recently purchased, it is obvious you seriously need to put some effort into your room acoustics. You may find that the problems you think you have are not from your components, but from your roo... 
Integrated amp suggestions.
@erik_squires How do the Luxman and Ayre house sounds differ from each other? I am interested in both brands but have not had the opportunity to listen to either. How does a brand like Simaudio compare to both? 
Accuphase E-470
What is the real problem with having a power transformer in the house for this purpose? If it is rated to supply the correct amount of current to the amplifier, why would it matter? There are step up and step down transformers all over the grid. I... 
Mirage Speakers?
I owned the bigger brother 760s many years ago. Good speaker, but I wouldn't give more than about $150 for the 460 now. They would be worth more than the rest combined, so I would say no. I went from the 760 to the M5si, which I owned longer than ...

Duke, very good of you to take the high road. You are a good man and above this nonsense. 
Digital Amplifier Company aka Cherry Amplifier ...
Spoken with such great authority that you would swear it is true, other than it is completely wrong. The amps are built in and ship from Pennsylvania. He doesn't just slap modules into a case and call it a day. So, no, you cannot buy the same thin... 
Harbeth 30.1 or legacy calibre
@bajaed I am using a Digital Amplifier Company (DAC) 2-Cherry King on the tweeters. Pretty overkill, but it sounds great. The back looks similar to the XD version, but there are 2 xlr inputs and a set of binding posts. The only toggle on the back ...
