I’m in trouble

Thanks for all the advice !
im looking at a Rotel A 14 or A12,
Cyrus One, Cyrus One ,Ascam  SA 10 or 20 and Itoa SA3

Rotel is AB
CYRUS IS D
SA 10 is AB
SA 20 is G
Iota SA3 is AB

Big menu and no HiFi shops to audition!
I got an SA10 via mail order and sent it back low tones were raspy and hi tones “vailed” not sure if it was a bad amp or just the way it works? I did like the amp physically very much!
also totally confused ad to the amount of wattage I need. Also having coax inputs is becoming a question as well since my Streamer and CD players has both analog and dig outputs and which DAC DO. I use the one in the streamer or CD PLAYER or ONE IN THE  amp?

Then to top it off the speakers have a wide range of acceptable wattage 20-120.
I am fully conversant on wattage and the 
dB scale and under stand logs! Understanding the math is of no help-

This is supposed to be fun?
I think this all has to do with no dealers available for sample listening! It’s a PIA to 
un box ,hook up , listen  , re box and send
then to just re order! 
never had this problem in the pastWhere do I start?

What part of South Florida. Southeast, Southwest?? Are you near Miami or Sarasota. 

The amp I sold was PA Audio S-300 and Stellar Gainn Cell DAC/pre
it was 140 at 8 and 300 watts at 4 ohms and sounded good when it worked! Amp was not functioning and needed new output brd and re build of trigger on off mechanism. The Pre amp has a chip problem in that the readout was stuck at 44.1 irrespective of input! So I never knew how or what I was listening to- no ability to fix it! Long story -many text messages -
no resolve- so I sold them both!

What I liked about the D class was no heat!
I had Primaluna pre and amp running but living in So Florida listening in a 12’x14’ cave was no fun! The Arcam SA 10 I had fir a test run was rather cool but it did not sound good???
i
may try another one since I liked the amp

I need to keep heat low in my office, so I used these two pieces together for many years
