What are your top 3 favorite DAC or DAC/Streamer devices?
Modwright Oppo 205Extremely musical and detailed.

Thank you for the report TD! 👍 
Are We Different?
Great thread! 🍻🍻🍻 
Just Got My Oppo 205!
I bought the 205 and thought it competent but a bit harsh in the treble with some SACD’s I have. I upgraded to the full Modwright 205 that included the Gen Pulse, and I now listen to it for hours. Absolutely rich and organic without a trace of dig... 
Interested in Members' Experiences with Rectifier Tube Rolling in Modwright PS 9.0 and 9.9
Thank you to everyone’s contributions here.I just ordered a GEC U52 today for my Modwright 205/PS 9.0 V10There’s an epic rectifier thread @ Head-Fi and when some comments here echoed those I saw on the other thread and articles, I pulled the trigg... 
If not an Oppo 205 then what?
Panasonic is coming out with their NEW upscale 4K player in the fall. Looks like it was designed to compete with the Oppo 205. Analogue outs, better video processing. Dolby vision plus the new HDR10+. No list price yet though.https://www.pocket-li... 
Oppo UDP205- How to make it a Multi Region Player
Modwright has an upgrade to multi-region for the 205. 
Oppo 203D or 205D?
I have both and upgraded from stock 205 to the Modwright. Even through 4k HDMI bitstreamed Blu-Ray, the sense of space and subtle sonic detail is superior on the 205. The 203 is excellent and the 205 even as a pure 4k Player is absolutely sublime.  
BAT VK-655SE
Nice system John. Here's one of the few reviews I could find online. http://www.tonepublications.com/review/balanced-audio-technology-vk-655se/Like you I'm still waiting for someone to comment on the 655se.

Thank you for the review! 
Oppo Gone - Now What?
My Modwright 205 was just delivered today so I am a happy camper.I don't see anything else that offers anything close to the value the 205 gives. Panasonic has a new upscale player with analogue outs/better DAC /advanced audio processing coming ou... 
BAT VK-655SE
Do you have one in your system? I have a BAT VK-6200 and I think it’s absolutely sublime and the best multi-channel amp out there. I’d love to hear what the owners of the 655se think of their amps and how they compare to others they’ve owned. 
Tube amps and heat
BAT gets so many things right with their amps. My solid state is extremely dynamic, and detailed with amazing Bass control. It delivers a deep soundstage with lots of width and height, and is just to the warm side of neutral. It's very musical and... 
Sub-Woofer?
You can't go wrong with a REL. I have an S5 SHO and it blends beautifully with my PSB T3 towers. Properly dialed in,  the REL will add that final sense of space and delicacy in the lowest octave. Good luck! 👍 
Mark Levinson multi channel
The 535h is supposed to be a very nice multi channel amp. There have been a few reviews of the 532h. Dynamic,  detailed, nice mid range. How much is your dealer asking?
