I knew I shouldn’t have thrown my Electrical Engineering text book in the campus pond!
Steakster, I’d love to know which LPS(s) you would recommend for my digital front end components based on your experience.

Thank you all for your insights, suggestions and advice.I talked to the tech support guys at RME about cable and power supplies. In regards to my question about using an LPS, they wrote “Thanks for choosing the ADI-2 DAC FS! RME does not recommend... 
I knew I shouldn’t have thrown my Electrical Engineering text book in the campus pond!
Thank you for your thoughts and perspective (pi) soix!i just am not sure if the investment in something like an SBooster for the Lumin (which voids its warranty) and a Teddy Pardo for the Nucleus should and would make a big difference. So many peo... 
Tube virgin looking for tube amp under $3k

Lumin D2 upgrade with external DAC?
Thank you tuberist. I have thought of that option too but is another ~ $1,500 above what i was looking to spend. I will keep it as a plan B though.  
Looking for a new integrated amp
+1 for the Primaluna wsrrsw provided suggestion. If you like the tube sound, this is a great way to get started on that journey. I auditioned the Sphinx v2 and found its sound rather thin. Not so with the Primaluna which sounded “organic” to me.  
Mid Range Streamer DAC recommendation help requested!
I’m another sold on Lumin customer. The D2 is a perfect match feeding Tidal/Roon to a Primaluna Dialogue HP Integrated providing great music i enjoy for hours on end with no ear/brain fatigue. That is one true benefit of being “banished” to work a... 
I'm here for the enthusiasts, not the snobbery
I’ve always thought the early year Porsche Cayman had beautiful lines and years later purchased an ‘06. This was its first year of production, which is typically a no no, but after reading Road and Tracks review which commended Porsche getting the...

Class A Options for adding Roon and MQA to existing system
I am serious about Class A, but i am not very computer literate. Ive looked at NUC options and they concern me due to those limitations.  I use a Synology NAS for non-music back-up/ storage and it was a challenge to set up. I may not be able to ge...

I agree ianrodger, davehg's suggestion to check out the Bel Canto e.One Stream looks like it could be exactly what im looking for.  Thank you davehg! Because it was just released this fall, the professional reviewers haven't had time to audition i... 
Class A Options for adding Roon and MQA to existing system
My apologies ianrodger!  I didnt proofread my initial posting question and left out an important digit. My budget it $2,000 for this endeavor which with Roon license at $500, leaves me $1,500 for the electronics.  Ive had good luck with used equip... 
Primaluna separates or Integrated?
incredible!  I can not thank you enough almarg for bringing this phenomena to my attention!  You are a great example of why these forums are so valuable to the home audio enthusiast. Im not an electrical engineer, but I did take a EE course in col...
