how much did you ever spend on a cable?
380 for morrow audio sp4 and don't plan on spending a penny more. 
Inexpensive pair of bookshelf speakers.
Sjofn the clue monitors might be up your alley. 
Is It Ironic?
I think you missed my point....I never said it was bad advice to tell someone to go out an listen before buying. In fact its the only sensible response. However, many on here will skewer a fist or second time poster for asking questions that for m... 
Is It Ironic?
What's Ironic is when a newbie asks for an opninon on starting a system and then gets chastised by senior members on here telling them to go listen to gear and let your ears decide and then said members go post and often get in to heated debates o... 
Best DAC/preamp for under $2K?
I had a NAD m51 in my system and compared it with the DAC in an original apple TV.....no difference what so ever none 
Is high-end audio dying, if not dead already???
Tue music industry has always delivered talentless trash has it not? Most pop music by in large sounds like what it is. Manufactured for the masses. This question was asked in a recent and lengthy thread. Check it out if nothing else it is quite a...

Fyi a tad 60 just came up for sale that ironicly used to belong to me. It is a fantastic amp for the price and the kt 88's are almost new. The creek is also a good recommendation.

In fact there is pair of tad hibachi Mono's on here right now that are essentially integateted amps with single inputs that I have read are very tube like and better the tad 60. But again I think the suggestion of a preamp probably makes the most ...

If your hell bent on getting a tube amp I would suggest looking for a tad 60. It can accommodate many types of tubes which will offer you lots of flexibility. I have owned it and it sounded as powerful as a 200 watt solid state amp and drove my pr...

Agree it may not make sense to go high end. I started climbing the ladder a few years ago and the more money I spent the more I was restricting myself to certain types of music simply because I was in awe with how my system sounded. But instead of...

Also I have owned a jolida 202a and at the time had a Peachtree Nova. I preferred the nova in both sound quality and flexibility.

I agree with zd542. With your budget a preamp will most likely give you the greatest improvement. I just purchased a Jolida fusion DAC PRE that is only a 100 bucks over your budget and I like it just as much as my spereate tube DAC and tube preamp...
