Is there a very nice SS amp around 1K?
..... summing upI bought a new Odyssey Stratos SE amp. I now have just over 25% of the required run in time on it.It was not at all a bad sounding unit even after just a couple days... but more time is quite telling and it is continually improving... 
Looking for a Solidly good inexpensive DAC
Gmood1 Thanks much... there was far more to say about each, but there's the gist of it... and so much for budgets. Still there are yet more worth checking out for sure... for now however my systems performance is again improved upon.

PS Audio Duet problem?
88i'VE FOUND THAT THE STOCK CORD psa SUPPLIES WITH A dUET IS A GOOD ONE TO PUT ONTO tv'S AND PROJECTOR. sOMETIMES AN ADAPTER IS NEEDED IF THE tv/pRO CORD IS A CAPTIVE CORD... i MEAN WHY NOT TRY IT? IT'S THERE... RIGHT? 
VTL 5.5 VS CJ Premier 17
FWIW ... I heard some cj systems not long ago... the 14 preamp, the 17, and one of the ct's... the $7k one, and the preamps were on various cj TUBE amps… the CT was on the new 170 wpc tube amp from CJ.If neutral is the goal, these newer tube units... 
PS Audio Duet problem?
Is this Duet new?If so it will take some good amount of time to run in completely. Mine took around 300 hrs. I don't know what it sounds like right out of the box... I usually forgoe that issue by plugging power cables, line filters, etc., into so...

DAC for FLAC?
That's a mighty ambiguous request, isn't it?What price range? Which 'high priced' units do you consider quality?Not knowing exactly, I'll assume you want a DAC which has multiple connectivity, inclusive of USB...and, do you mean to use strickly US... 
Is there a very nice SS amp around 1K?
...we'll see soon enough. 
which dac?
Gilman61255 Not sure what your tastes in music range to or what sort of sound you are seeking either...The DA 10, in a word, is "musically involving"... the BC DAC 3 (after only a few minutes listening) is in a whole other world... containing far ... 
Is there a very nice SS amp around 1K?
TvadWe agree? Good... I'm feelling all warm & fuzzy now. Thanks.Vicdamone Gee what a great handle. too bad the amp choice isn't as good. IMOif their big 3-400 wpc mono block amps are better than that one, I'll pass. I heard the blocks not long...
