When you go in for your exchange you could ask to try the Amara View at your pressure, right there. You'll know then. If they don't have it on hand they probably will tell you that the AV wouldn't stand the pressure but the only way to know is to try it. The AV is very comfortable, I have one. 

 Do the same with the Liberty. Not much to lose. That is if they sell these masks. Both these masks are for mouth breather.

RE: Huge nose, mask needed for it
OK I will give them a call and see if I can get one of those two masks to try... Have to see how long they will give me to try them... I know they didn't want me to come back in, the guys said if the f20 doesn't work to call and they would send a different mask to me.... Like I said bad dme... I had a different one the first round and they were awesome... I tried like 20 mask in 2 month period... Tried nasal first then full face ones... Never tried the hybrid... I will have to call them as I think I tried the Amara one in the past... I think that one has been out for awhile right? Maybe I need some setting changes also

There are variants of the Amara, and the Amara View is one. There's also Amara without the scenic view; that's the traditional Nasal style, big clunky one with a forehead brace, nothing like the View. See the photos at:
