Bryston and Conrad Johnson
Conrad Johnson makes some of the finest pre-amps in the business and are capable of bringing out the best in any amplifier. I would think the combination would be very good but I have no direct experience with Bryston. I run a CJ Premier 16ls II t... 
IC for CJ PV12 Sunfire TrueSub Jr CJ MV2250?

Anyone ever used a KSA 200S w/Watt/Puppy's
I have heard the Watt Puppy 6's with a Levinson 335 / 380S / #39 CD player combination. Not impressed, to sterile and no sound stage. Just my opinion.Chuck 
Sony SCD-777ES Power Cables
I bought an absolute power cord for my SCD-1; figured it was better than the stock cord. I have considered trying an Elco Audio or PS Audio Lab II; but have not as of yet. I would be interested in any feedback that you have on these power cords.Chuck

Best SACD/CD Player up to 3000 street price?
There are a lot of threads on this subject. I would suggest you do a search and read till your hearts content. However, I second Stehno's comments, the SCD-1 is simply an amazing player for the money. On redbook it is very competetive with the big... 
Review: Sony SCD-XA777es CD Player
DtfGood post. I agree, I have a SCD-1 and love it. It is very good on redbook and simply outstanding on SACD. I too find myself buying any SACD that fits my musical taste. I know people like to slam these players but from my experience it is total...
