Oppo UDP - 205
@gdhal   Hi. You are welcome.Unfortunately I can't answer your specific question. I did not use the 205 as a transport with digital coax out to the Yggy.   I'm setup for network based streaming (nearly 100% now). And yes, Coax or Optical are the... 
Oppo UDP - 205

Tekton Double Impacts
@vitop  We are on the same page! : ) At the end of my research I ended up with the Anthem being the best choice for me as well, albeit with a separate chain for 2ch. 
Tekton Double Impacts
@vitop  Before getting the Double Impacts I was focused on building a home theatre system. I was actively looking at Pre/Pros and the Lyngdorf MP-50 was a possibility, though a stretch for me at it's asking price and the fact that it was a brand n...

$10K-15K short list?
@dhanks   I'd narrow your list down on your own before opening it up to feedback and specifics on say two or three speakers. There have been many good recommendations given, but for me, this would be an overwhelming exercise due to an overabundanc... 
recommendations for amplifiers that don't emit tons of heat
@don_c55 SST is still alive and well thanks to Wyred 4 Sound.The original ’Son’ is now the Mk2 version. It runs warm, but not hot. Excellent amp, and phenomenal for the money.(Spread Spectrum Technologies Son of Ampzilla Mk2)RIP JB.

@kalali :  My turnaround time for the upgraded DIs in standard color was about three weeks from order to doorstep. FedEx was great and they actually wheeled each box in to my audio rooom. I don't think that is standard FedEx practice. :)

@vitop :  That's going to be some sound system once you have it installed. Hope there is an open invite for an in person listen once all is optimized!

@evolvist I, for one, don't think this is off topic at all. I'd say it is very relevant.This thread has been about improving sound quality, as expressed through the Double Impacts, which all of us are working on in different ways. From our many po...
