Shindo Vosne Romanee / MC240 / Linn LP12 / ProAc & Altec - DAC?

@pdreher : I agree that the Altec 19 benefits from more power. Instead of a tube amp like an MC275 the Benchmark AHB2 would be a better choice - and costs less!

The Bluesound Node 2 with its built-in DAC is a good affordable way to add streaming.

I love the MC240 for the story and warmth of sound. I think the reality is that at some point Shindo Monoblocks will come into play but I feel like the 240 has more than enough power to drive the 19s and certainly the ProAc

The sounds of ProAc with Linn and MC and Shindo is incredibly sexy. 
 

I think if I am going to add in a DAC then I’d like for it to standby the Vosne. Because the reality is that if the sound isn’t remarkable then I’ll just never use it and tell me friends to flip the vinyl 😂. I don’t mind spending but after buying a Magnum 3 and then weeks later jumping into Shindo, I’d rather not waste the money and upgrade later

#3. In my experience, Mr. T would further enhance the performance of Vosne Romanee and rest of your system. If you get a chance to compare, I think you may find that you won’t need D6 anymore. I have compared Mr. T with power conditioners costing 5x-7x more and found Mr. T to convey music naturally without any coloration. 

#4. Consider Bluesound Node X or Innuos Pulse Series for streaming tunes. 

#5. As far as sub goes, it’s an experience that must hear to access. Adding subs and integrate them properly is like adding more meat on the bones. Once you hear them in your system, chances are you won’t wanna live without them. I recommend a pair of REL’s with high level connection. 

I can only respond to #1. The best connector is no connector. Even worse than any single connector is using a connector to a connector. Using an adapter between a spade connector that is fixed to the end of your wire and a banana jack is not a good idea. Decide whether you want to use the spade straight in, or not. If you want to use a banana connection, then remove the spade connector and solder on the proper male banana plug. (There are some very nice ones that essentially consist of a piece of copper or plated copper formed into a banana shape; simplest is best. Can't recall the brand.) Better yet, if you can fix bare wire to the amplifiers, do that.

As to the rest, you have a fairly sophisticated system for someone who claims to be "new to the audio world". What you will get here is naught but a collection of opinions from a variety of individuals who won’t even agree with each other on what you need or what you should do (including me). Follow your ears, is my advice. For example, I wouldn’t have a Linn TT, but many sane persons love them.
