best overall speakers at low volume?
I've learned that it's not your speakers that must sound good at low levels but your electronics.If you don't have a first class "stiff" power supply,your sound will turn to mush.I used a first rate integrated amp that maintained it's sonic charac...

Mark Levinson n°39 or dedicated DAC?
I used the #39 straight into (no preamp) an Audio Research VT-100 Mk-III (Audio Artistry Dvorak speakers).I much prefered the sound of the Rega Apollo into a BAT VK-300 SE (Thiel 1.6 speakers).

"Best" DAC for a grand or less
Kbarkamian: My bad.I was thinking of the Musical Fidelity M1 DAC (from $699) as shown in the recent Audio Advisor catalog. The Rega DAC is on the next page.C'mon Rega; Get with the XLR already!
