The Yaesu price is ridiculous. I am looking at the new Kenwood down
conversion TS-590S. It has good close-in performance and excellent
sensitivity for $1750.
Also, I notice sensitivity values apply for full hf band and it even
has sensitivity specs stated for longwave (Universal web site).

Does state that specs are guaranteed for ham bands only at bottom.
Does not say which specs they are referring to and why state specs for
longwave which are out of band?

We need a receiver review. Who will volunteer?

You want a low IF if you're going to use meaningful filters.
Upconversion is only required for seamless general coverage.

A lot of amateurs are buying them. When I talk to somebody that has
one I will find out what they think. Hopefully they have done at least
some out of band listening. Also have to check on utube and see if
anyone posts a demo.

Unless you want a ham transceiver the only choice you have for a
high-performance SWL receiver is for one of the excellent black box
radios that require a host PC. I think there's one for about $500 that
Sherwood ranks well.
