I've got an XA7ES. It's been in my bedroom system & is always on, (unless I leave town), since I traded a Jeff Rowland Consonance for it approx 4 or 5 years ago.
Dependable, beefy, and it has the variable out (single ended). I'm using the balanced outputs right now, into a Pass Aleph pre-amp. It still sounds at least as good as most one-box players I've heard.
