OK, maybe the amplifier has something to do with it but the room has definitely something to do with what I am experiencing. First I tried covering the rest of the hardwood, it sounded a bit better. Then I tried hanging some bedsheets and piling up all the pillows that I could find and it also improved a bit, the highs were still a bit high but they didn't seem to mix both channels has much. Finally, I turned Audyssey ON (it was OFF) and even though it didn't sound as natural to me, the highs were tamed down a bit, so less blurriness. Well, unlike some people, I have the WAF factor and I don't think she will enjoy all the drapes in the living room and all the pillows on the floor
, so I guess I'll just keep it down for now (it was too loud anyway) and one of these days I'll get at least some curtains which will help a bit. One day I'll also get a SPL meter as I am curious now to how loud it was playing. Thanks all for your input.
