Shhhhh ... you'll let the cat out of the bag!
I agree with your comments. I have the TX-5000, and find it to be just as you say.
I also have the bigger TX-7000, the 90 wpc big brother. This is the best-sounding/performing 80-100 wpc receiver I have enjoyed hearing.
Extremely overbuilt for a 90 wpc piece.
I also have the 160 wpc TX-8500 Mk II. The 8500 Mk II's amplifier section is very similar to that in their M-504 amplifier. Two huge power supplies and four beer-can sized capacitors.
