Bookshelf speakers for near-field (desktop) use
+1 @ seasdiamond good advice.Don't sell your Anthem 510. Whatever speakers you choose, having them on a desk means you absolutely need a correction tool. Arc2 is really good. Reflections make it impossible for any speaker to produce a flat respons... 
A comparison between two DACs, one R-2R, the other ES 9038-based.
DSPeaker Antimode 2.0 is a (full range) room correction unit with built-in dac. I'm sure you can correct the sound according to your preferences much more with this than any dac on the market. Very useful for me.

No experience of your suggested speakers but I would say one or more big woofer(s) are good for your preferred music. To enjoy the true bass impact. 
High resolution digital is dead. The best DAC's killed it.
@emcdadeWould be very interesting if you could give some more details regarding using Roon to upsample to DSD 512 and play back through your T+A DSD Dac. Can you do that with streaming music or only with your own library. New to DSD.

Single most important factor when testing is the volume. Needs to be within +/- 0.2 db. Sometimes a problem with stepped volume controls.

Where to hear ATC speakers
Would be nice if all of us had an ATC monitor/speaker at home as a common reference. I have the 12 (desktop) and 150 (main) models. Admit I listen to lots of others but they're always my references. Control, precision, dynamics, headroom, looks.

Thank you for this A/B test. More of the same please. I have myself still to hear a significant, or should I say interesting, difference between two alright dacs. Why spend 200 hours trying to find the smallest difference when you can change speak...

Burchart? Some entry level kit? 
Anyone heard of Creative Sound Solutions?
Hi, old thread but would be great to know what happened? 
Pro v Audiophile - Science v Snake Oil?
Sometimes I would say these forums tends to be a little unfair to the recordings made today. There are plenty of good examples from the past to find, but the general quality today is so much better it's no contest. Lot's of good work done in the s...
