Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
Okay all of you happy DA-005 owners, who has owned their DAC the longest and can comment on reliability?  Maybe it's too soon to know but it's the only question I still have about this wonderful DAC and hope I never have to find out.

Plan to call, Lalit. Thanks. 
聖HIJIRI Users thread
Gestalt doesn't have much of a website. Clicking on the links takes you to the manufacturer's website. I assume you have to call to inquire about prices.  Very happy with my Zavfino Fusion i/c's but if the Hijiri are similar but mo' better then I'... 
Does anyone manufacture an alternative Linn Sondek belt pulley ?

KEF Reference 1s or Wilson Sophias
I am familiar with the Ref 1s and used to own the VX-5 twenty.  I can only imagine how beautiful these sound together!  
upgrade rec from meridian 508.24
@lewdis It's been over a week and no reply from the repair shop when I used the contact form on their website.  I will need to call.  Please let me know if you've made any progress.  
upgrade rec from meridian 508.24
You've got my attention since mine (508.20 factory upgraded to 508.24) has been acting up as of late. I bought a new DAC and only use mine as a transport.  Sometimes the buttons don't work, the sled comes out only halfway, and intermittent inabili... 
FEDEX keeps destroying my New CARY 805RS Monoblocks - What can I do to prevent Nightmare?
My first suggestion is to move from NJ to NC.  If that isn't practical, then FedEx Freight is the way to go.  Enjoy your new Cary amps.  
Big Below 15k used that can play loud as heck
Want bass that will kick you in the chest?  Klipsch Cornwall IV or LaScala. No need for big watt amplifiers.  Save your money.
