Digital direction needed
I burn my CDs to the laptop and that is my control center.  The Oppo has balanced and RCA.  The balanced goes to my Pass labs 150 and on to the Sonus Faber's Cremona Auditors.  The RCAs go to the Primal luna Dialogue premium and on to my Lawrence ... 
Digital front end for Macs
I liked the 1100 Mac which is using multiples of the ES9018 32 bit sabre Dacs. Just a bit steep at the moment. To get by on the cheap - I wonder if anyone has tried the erc-2 as a transport. What is an economical transport to go with a 1k to 1.5k ... 
220 to 110 coversion - mistake?
Thanks for all your responses. I could have gotten a shanlin CD player out of Hong Kong for about 25 dollars on ebay - The additional rub, besides being 220, was the shipping... almost 200 bucks. That pretty much nixed the whole idea, but at least...

DAC on Universal player
I would have said the Tri-vista 21 which might be a bit steep for your taste or not. I was looking at the same solution as you, that's why I was drawn to this thread. I am interested in SACD as well as good redbook playback which seems to be a nom... 
DAC on Universal player
Yes it would. Check out Sam's space in the new Stereophile.. Jan 2004 
Pre-amp/processor Do we think about it yet?
Thanks for the input... It's a difficult world and I regress but you are correct and that's what I will do... I am trying to do too much and must put the important things first.. Thanks 
Four Speakers one Amp - Help with this dilemna
I assume if I ran a pre-amp out of the integrated such as with the new Krell integrated amp; My preamp would then control my second set of speakers. Integrated controlling the volume of one, and the pre-amp controlling the volume of the other. I a...
