Streaming alternatives to pricey kaleidoscope?
Kaleidoscape cheapskate.  
Ripping CD's to hard drive
If it consummates, the "quality" of rip doesn’t matter, only the quality of playback. Ripping usually repeats until it is "right." PB only gets one shot at it. I’ve had good success with a Pioneer BD External drive.

Experience with iFi SPDIF iPurifier2
I power my iPurifier2 with a cheap LPS. I also connect my player with a glass toslink cable. This enables a "good" toslink connection and a "oh wow" connection for whenever I get "serious."

The only DAC that ever failed for me dropped to 0% output with no crackle    
EBTech HumX
EBTech works as a safer version of a cheater plug. If a cheater doesn't work for you, it probably won't. It performs as advertised.

I have never experienced a "nice" mix playing it on a PC or handheld.  
Which DAC Filter - Fast or Slow?
Everyone's hearing is different. Pink 'em. Slow for me.  
CD and Network Streamers
If you have a PC you can rip any CDs to lossless files and play them on most streamers from $100 up (with USB input.)  I have a fine CD transport but rarely use it..
