Isn't a wondeful time to be an audiophile?
Better CD players, better turntables, better amps, hi-res, streaming, many kinds of speakers to choose from. Music access anywhere and virtually anything. The comeback of tube amps......yes, YES it is a wonderful time to be an audiophile. 
One Amp To ‘Rule’ Them All....
Noble100 has given the best advice. Your first answer had me on the floor laughing. Your second answer much more diplomatic and polite.Thank you Noble100. 
New speakers? No thanks.
Yes to the above poster, since most speakers need more power. But one needs CLEAN power and that often comes at at price. What was that Nelson Pass rule, if the first Watt is not right, all the others that follow will be wrong? Someone correct my ... 
What was your favorite musical artist best album?
Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighshad to throw that one in.

Perhaps others can chime in, but I think you need a router. 
One Amp To ‘Rule’ Them All....
BTW the posts so far are leaning away from the idea that one amp "rules" them all. Audiophiles here are offering different amps and I will predict that list will get longer. I doubt you will come to a consensus on ONE amp. 
One Amp To ‘Rule’ Them All....
I understand your point, but I would like to say that the sky, when you start to understand atmosphere and light is not blue. It is never just blue. Look at it on any given day, and you will see all the colors of the spectrum from cool or warm gra... 
Newbie questions - Seeking a streamer with the right features - I'm confused!
I really like the Sonos system and I think it would be perfect for what you are trying to do. I helped my 70 yr old neighbor across the street set this up and he’s ecstatic with the results. He has two small Sonos speakers on thin stands in his li...

“We don’t see things as they are. We see them as we are” Anais NinEveyone has a different standard, taste, inclination based upon many, many factors. Some audiophiles here mostly believe in measurements, others trust their ears and many people hav... 
Newbie questions - Seeking a streamer with the right features - I'm confused!
Bluesound and Sonos make speakers for this. These speakers are designed as remote wireless speakers. They are self powered and can be moved wherever you want them.

A very silly question indeed. 
Odyssey monoblock thoughts.
I feel the need to defend my comments on Odyssey Audio.stereo5 wrote-“I had a Stratos extreme and Kismet mono blocks. I am now running all McIntosh. I heard a Magtech on another persons system and I thought it was lean sounding. I loved both the K... 
Odyssey monoblock thoughts.
I think I had responded to you on audiocircle. I had a dreadful experience with Odyssey. I lost lots of money on the Tempest, Candela and Stratos amp. There was spurious noise issues and hum that was inherent in the equipment (documented on Odysse... 
Recommend an MQA album...
That’s too bad. Keep in mind MQA is streaming content, not downloaded hi-Rez files. Also I can say the Beatles “Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band”, Sting “Dream of the Blue Turtles” and Diana Krall “ The Girl in the other Room” are very good.IMHO.
