I just found another composer I never knew existed:Woldemar Bargiel.It seems he was step brother to Clara Schumann. Wikipedia posts that they became close and Clara tried hard to get his music recognized.A little nepotism never hurts...Nevertheles...

@headphone,You must be reading my mind.I have been dying to listen to MBL's for years. Not common here in the US. I missed a pair of used 121's and am kicking myself.And, I have a soft spot for Omni's. Bob 
Any one using 2 separate amps using a/b switch to same speakers?

DAC recommendation with tube preamp
I use an Ayre Codex.-Definitely superior to the Node integrated DAC.B
