An amp that I can be happy with until the day I die? Could this be it? I test and review the S.M.S.L RAW-HA1 to see if its The One. https://apos.audio/products/smsl-raw-ha1-headphone-amplifier
NOTE: The above linked page describes the unit as a headphone amplifier. Dont worry. It drives loudspeakers just fine. And headphones.

[Save $30 link below] I’ve had my FlexiSpot C7 Air Pro for some months now. A bit out of random, FlexiSpot offered me another one to use in my YouTube studio. In this video therefore I’ll give you a tour of my studio, set up the chair and demonstrate its features, and finish with my review. Oh… and has this chair been improved since my previous one? You’ll see in my video.
