I plan to try the paper test asap. I sure hope it’s room issues. I thought I had things under control with room treatments, but, nothing is on the 8’ ceiling. Fingers crossed. Currently streaming with node2i and will most likely be upgrading to Innuos mk3 streamer soon, hopefully that might help?

Not to dis your 452, an awesome amp, to be sure. But maybe your amp upgrade was not really an upgrade with respect to your speakers? The 805s are super revealing, which for some might translate into analytical or harsh with the "wrong" amplifier. I love my 805s as paired with an MC275, a less precise, though warmer amp than yours.
Good luck--keep us posted!
