Recomendation on a small DAC & Headphone amp for office desk
foobar means Windows. I rec the Schiit Modi Multibit. It plays whatever foobar dishes out. It’s one push to cycle through USB, Toslink and coax. Windows programs seemCurrently to find the output at random. Much faster than Sound<>Playback ... 
TurnTable -> Mixer -> Audio Interface -> Macbook (Can not select audio output)
Maybe that's all you get. Apple won't even move files with QuickTime. I can think of no good purpose to route analog through a computer to listen.  
Do I need a 20 amp or 15 amp power conditioner/surge protector
ZeroSurge 2R20 for the best protection. +1 on the big power flow to small amps. Spend twice as much as a tiny tpa3116d2 for a 5 amp LPS and see.    
Use of a super tweeter worth the investement ?
IA positive result depends more than a little on the age of your ears.  
Wadax Reference Dac and Reference Server--arrived in my room.
Why would anyone be flakked about the price of "cost no object" gear? Jealousy or ignorance?  Thanks for all you do Mike.  
LP Vinyl: Quality, Pressing, Label, Weight, Where to Buy ???
Discogs is specialized and peer reviewed. The sellar tells you what he's got and if wrong he gets bad marks.  
Improvement of MacBook Air for Streaming Tidal
Best starter network player sans DAC is the iFi Zen. You control it with anything on your network. A smart phone is less cumbersome and less noisy than the laptop. If you want bigger use a tablet. Use the laptop for editing not serious listening. ...

Replaced all my Living Room Outlets
Not funny.  
Is Apple Trying to Save Me 5 cents?
Amazon and Apple don’t give a rat-a-phooey about anyone else’s streamer. All they wanna do is sell you one but they have not determined that it is profitable Don’t hold any breath for Spotify, last year is ovah. If you don’t wanna blow no dough, d... 
eARC when using Roku
All you can do is try it. In my experience I'd never seen a TV pass surround channels. Not an issue for Roku.   
Doubles!
Except for that there ain't no buying goin on.  
China built tube amps
Leave Hyundai out of it smart guy. Try Yugo. Apos is as good as Amazon, fresher stock (DHL from China), better (match) prices, painless returns. He sent me a shipping label for the only piece I was dissatisfied with.  
Speakers vs. headphones
Like I said, once you make them your own. The best setup has two unique systems, both with remote control from the seat position.  
New wireless bridge and ethernet cable.
OK then. What is a cheap wireless bridge? A switch? PS calls the optional card in their DAC a bridge. That’s the only one I know of off hand. And it IS a streamer. Hard to be helpful when ignorant of the issue. I have 5 streamers , 3 switches ...
