Any reason to go with anything other than Sanders Magtech for Martin Logan Summit X
I've had ARC D115mkII, REF110, and REF150SE on my ML CLSs and then CLXs.  I love the sound of a tube amp on them.

How do you use Tidal with you local library?
Should have mentioned that you can build a Roon Core server using an Intel NUC for ? $300-500, and I suspect it's performance will beat the MBP and approach the Nucleus. 
How do you use Tidal with you local library?
The value of Roon goes beyond just integrating your local library and Tidal (which it does very, very well). There is an ease of music discovery and learning about the musicians that has been talked about, but would hard to not have, now that I ha...

Qutest vs Yggdrasil Analog 2 vs Gungnir Multibit
I am a happy owner of a Yggdrasil Analog 2/Gen5 USB.  The Schiit multibit DACs were the first to actually sound like music to me.  I had a Bifrost with two different DAC boards in it before multibit and they were fine, but di not really make me wa...
