| Curious to know your streaming and dac set up and the best recommended streamer under $15k I purchased a Baetis Revolution And am quite happy with my digital front end now. Customer service is outstanding | |
| Best Basic CD Player (no SACD, USB, etc.) try to find an older Meridian G08 or YBA 1 transport/cd player both of these were excellent players in their time and can be purchased on the used market, with YBA be careful sometimes the Blue laser would fail so make sure it is working o... | |
| Qln, Joseph Audio, Audiovector, Marten, or Canton...? Before spending that budget you really should give Jim Salk at Salk Sound a look. I have his Ss M6 speakers and they punch way above their price range he has a range of floor mounts. | |

| Streamer Recommendation. You should check out Baetis in Canada I have had their Revolution streamer for 2 yrs now. Great product even better customer service. You deal directly with owner. I use his streamer with TotalDAC Dac and love the sound Cheers | |

| Solid state to tube Thanks for all the great help. Based on what I have read here I might hold off on going to a tube power amp. I will try a tube pre amp first and run it with my current YBA 1 solid state amp. I will also try with my Meitner mono blocks to see whi... | |
