Lend me your ears...

I'm hoping to get some buying advice. I live in an area where it isn't possible to audition a variety of products. If you have experience with any of the digital sources I'm considering, your impressions would be most helpful. 

I'm choosing from; Cary DMS 800; Aurender A30; Antipodes K50 with a Benchmark DAC3 HGC; Baetis Reference with the Benchmark DAC. 

Suggestions? Cautionary tales?

Melnas was a Scandinavian (of course) mezzo who sang in the '80's. She is best known for the epochal "Cantate Domino" recorded and released by the Scandinavian (of course) company BIS. I believe that the title is available on SACD. I have no idea about the strange phenomenon known as 'downloading'. 

Enjoy!

I have no opinion on the HW, as I listen exclusively to analogue.

But I absolutely agree about Flagstad. Flagstad is Flagstad, dominating the field like no other since Caruso. Have you heard Melnas, recorded on BIS?
