Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Georgelofi,Have you tried this yourself? Does it improve on the sound over your stock power cable? 
Hybrid Balanced Tube Preamp?
I think the "Coincident Statement Linestage" is just what you need. 
Solid State to replace Audio Research REF110?
Again, I would recommend researching the following depending on your speakers impedance and recommended amplification/power, and of course, your wallet.First Watt SIT-1 MonoblocksWells Audio Innamorata AmplifiersPass Labs XA.5 SeriesMerrill Audio ... 
Anyone heard the Bosendorfer Loudspeakers?
Yes, those Bosendorf speakers were/are great speakers. They are are now manufactured by Brodmann Acoustics with the same designer, and the newer models are even better/improved over what you heard under the Bosendorf name.

Worlds best DAC
Bhobba,Is the new "Lampi Level 7" going to be part of the shootout? 
Worlds best DAC
Bhobba,You are right. But would would you have bought that amp based on reviewes/raves? You bought it because you had the chance to hear it. I think irrespective of the reviews/raves, one owes it to aution/hear it for themselves before pulling the... 
Best modern speaker to match old Mark Levinson
I would recommend Revel Speakers, either the Studio2 or Salon2.

Iam not trying to hijack this thread, but a review of the Trinity Preamp was just posted and below the link. The reveiwer went craaaazy. I think the Trinity DAC, Preamp, and Phono are superb!http://positive-feedback.com/Issue70/trinity_preamplifie...

If you care what is beating out the DCS Vivaldi, check the following urls. A single box against the four-box DCS.http://www.audioexotics.hk/index.php?option=com_simplestforum&view=postlist&forumId=1&parentId=10845&topic=true&It... 
Dream System: Magico + Coincident + Wavelength ?
Charles1dad,I am tempted by the Dragons as it will mate perfectly with the Coincident Linestage, but I am scared due to the impedance of the speakers. I chose the Veritas because I also think SS amplifier would suit the Magico's very well. 
Dream System: Magico + Coincident + Wavelength ?
I am planning on similar system with the Magico Q3, Coincident Statement Linestage, Merrill Audio Veritas Monoblocks and the Lampizator Level 5 DAC with DSD. The Veritas have more than enough power to drive the Q3's. 
Super Dacs - DCS vs. MSB
I have not heard any of the DAC's you mentioned. However, I think you should add the Trinity Supreme DAC to your list to audition as people have replaced their Vivaldi's with the Trinity DAC. You save on cables too with the Trinity DAC. Please rea... 
High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz
Iblieve,Not that I am siding with Fplanner2000 and Charles1dad, but I think if you are ready to move to the HF cables, going through the Cable Company to obtain audition pairs and listening/comparing them in "your system" is the best way. This way... 
When is a Listening Room Too Big
My advise is don't tailor the space specifically to your Maggie's, unless you are sure you are going to die with them. I would look for general dimensions that would work well with most medium to large speakers in case you have to upgrade from you...
