Can anything beat Vintage Amps for the $$$?
You are kidding right? 
could anyone help me ?
If you are just sarting in this mess, get out. If you are already an adict, I would chose Bryston over everything for entry level. Solid and holds its value, great product in it's own right. You can trade up from there but get ready for a ride. 
Speaker swap or Amp,which impacts more????
I was right where you are. I went with B&W N802s and I thought they were a great improvement, since then, I went from Bryston 4B-ST to Roland M201 and this also enhanced my sound. Either way, there was an improvement. I think the speakers were... 
Question re: Power conditioner
I use power conditioners for everything but my amps. It is very dependent on what each person "hears" but I would not think of not having them. 
Ladies analogy lover?
Gadgets are rarely for women. I have never gotten one to critically listen to music. Music is in the background not in the foreground to my wife. She still can't understand why I would have a single disc CD player. I would give up this battle.

Lamm 2.1 amps
The difference between the M201s, which are great for the price, and the Lamms are ASTOUNDING. If you can get a pair, you will not believe your ears. It sounds to me like live music. The soundstage and details are like nothing I have ever heard. B... 
Lamm 2.1 amps
Just to update anyone that is thinking of the Lamm amps. I eventually decided on the Lamm 1.2 Reference amps. Amazing product. Great spacially with amzing detail and life. It is like listening to a live performance. I know these are expensive, I r... 
bryston warm up time
One other thing to think about, do you have your amp plugged into a power conditioner? If so, I would recommend you plug it directly into the wall outlet. This makes a big difference. I did not think it would but it did. I also thought buying a be... 
Time to upgrade CD transport and/or DAC?
If you can get a Reimyo DAP-777 DAC, you will think you are listening to vinyl. I love mine.  
Lamm 2.1 amps
Yes I was talking about the M2.1s. The M2.2s are a bit expensive so I thought this would be a good model to try. I also have kids so I do not want to have tubes with yound kids for fear of one of them being as stupid as I was as a young boy. You d...
