As well as apologising in the thread, Rob also PM'd me to apologise. My reply was rambling - it's been a long day - but I'll repeat here one thing I said in the PM: there's no need to apologise 
I know that I am a bit "touchy" about some aspects of the audiophile world - there was a long thread about that back in 2020 - and I'm guilty of trying to encourage people to think critically about the claims made, and to apply logic and first principles. Not specifically to tell people what they should buy and believe, but just to help folk to be better informed. Probably a bit irritating, but it comes from a good place.
Anyway, we'll see if we get anywhere with this. It could be that the amplifier needs a bit of an overhaul; it could be that those speakers aren't suitable for that space. Measurements or testing by substitution are possible ways forward. Hopefully we'll get somewhere in due course.
