| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Snopro, listen to a T+A Dac 8 DSD we have found nothing under $10k that can touch it, use a fast Core 7 Computer with Jriver set the program to output 16/44 to DSD 512 and sit back and enjoy. It is freakishly good sounds like a good $10k analog ... | |

| Int Amp for Thiel CS 3.7 yyzsantabarbera we know the Uber Luxman and we haven't tested it. The Luxman gear is very good, however, we sold the brand for years, liked it a bit better than the Hegel gear which we also sold.The T+A 2500R is the most remarkable semi affordable... | |
| MA252 + Bluesound Node 2 + DAC? Or Naim Uniti Atom/Star? The Cambridge 851N is a great looking, okay sounding streamer. The sound quality is nothing special. We had the CD version of this player and it never sounded great. The Lumin D2 is way better sounding. The Micromega M100 connects to Spotify and ... | |
| MA252 + Bluesound Node 2 + DAC? Or Naim Uniti Atom/Star? Wcniedba, take this as you wish, we are Naim dealers and not Mcintosh so you can make up your mind on our findings.

| Speaker recomendation Keoliphant, thank you so much for the kind words really appreciate it.As per the PS Audio stuff, we haven't heard it or tested it vs our setups so we can't really comment on how it actually performs.The point we make is that with the Monos at $15k... | |
| Am i missing something without a power conditioner? Ralph, very few real audiophiles want an industrial, discontinued power regenerator, especially one that would or might need service from a company that really doesn't care about the consumer market way too impractical.Also we have tested regenera... | |
