Will this amp work as described below:
That is very loud, do you have problem with your hearing? if not you will probably get that problem sooner than later.  
Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed?
Not read the whole tread, but your room is probably a problem with your speakers that are very revealing. Are you up for changing the speakers?  
Amp pairing with Tannoy Turnberry?
Aric Audio has some interesting offerings.  
Help recommend a good tube preamp
Aric Audio, point to point wiring, should last a lifetime. Also Aric is a great guy, very helpful and accommodating.  
Looking for upgrade of Accuphase E-480
I am afraid the problem is your speakers.  
Bi-wire implementation of Luxman 590AXii and Luxman M10X
You could sell your integrated and buy a nice tube pre and a some cash left šŸ˜œ  
Will a New Amp Sound Better Than My ML333?
You could try Van Alstine amps, are said to be very good and reliable.  
Graham LS5/9 vs Harbeth M30.2 and SHL5 Plus
I prefer the Graham 5/9, I heard the 30.1 at a dealer thinking it would be my forever speaker, but really did not like them, felt they were projecting the sound too much in upper midband, I listen in near field position. Took a chance on the 5/9 ... 
Anything close to Hegel H360 but smaller/lighter?
Belles AriaĀ  Ā  Ā  Belles also just came out with a Signature model of this amp.  
Accuphase E380
Lot of high-end shops in Bangkok, should not be a problem finding something to taste.  
Belles Aria upgrade over VT01, sa100, sa030?
I have the SA30, beautiful sounding amp.  
Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising?
Even a cheap tube pre can do wonders for a system, a very good solid state pre often is very expensive. Off course a pre ā€œcolorā€ the sound, but with tube rolling you often can get the sound you like, should you want to change the sound. Ā  Ā   
Atma-Sphere Class Dā€¦ Amazing
Unfortunately they are a bit too expensive for me, will there be a cheaper stereo version ?  
Atma-Sphere Class Dā€¦ Amazing
Do you guys know what the input gain is on these amps ?  
tube pre & ss amp integrated
I know it doesnā€™t have tubes, but you could take a look at the Swedish Moonriver intergraded amp, gets very good reviews
