Nearly all manufacturers do not advertise/exhibit their product measurements? Why?
Just like alleged performance figures/data for cars, trucks and motorcycles. All data is suspect buy what you like.   
Tubes, cheese, wine and cognac
I am enjoying some old Soviet Era 6922 in my pre amp that are wonderful.  Also pair of Telefunken Black Diamond ECC-83.    
Upgrade path question. Upgrade analog or turn to digital?
I am with you @mikelavigne just not quite to the extent you have committed . I enjoy digital and analog, streaming and server, LP, and like them for what they do well and do not dwell on what they lack. No matter the format enjoy the music.     
What is Your Opinion of Atmos Music?
@tablejockey I agree completely. Another gimmick?   
Digital Improving All the Time?
DAC chipsets I think have hit the wall. Now improvement is coming in different segments of the chain, isolation, reduction of jitter, emi, rfi,. This is what the high dollar DACs do better than the lower end gear.   
Is there such a thing as a FOREVER DAC/streamer?
@donroth You are clueless.

DAC Technology is not as fast moving as the the peddlers want you to think. I agree with the OCD Mikey on that.  
One turntable with two arms, or two turntables with one each - which would you prefer?
2 turntables and a microphone for me.  Beck.

Wow did not see that I thought it was funny. And true.    
Most underrated female recording artists..
Kim Gordon Kacey Musgraves Jenny Lewis Zooey Deschanel (she and him) Kim Deal Karen O.    
Looking for advice
I agree get the best DAC you can afford. The Zen Mini is a okay but the DAC is not very good. Fine for ripping and streaming.   
Don’t over power condition!
What if the over conditioning is causing a voltage or the amperage to drop in the system. 2 conditioners run is sequence and the device (streamer) is making a power demand that the conditioners cannot provide. Kind of like a voltage drop on a fuel... 
$1499 gets you to Nirvana?
Quite a few folks here have bought this amplifier and are very, very happy with them.   
Thoughts about the "Cheapaudioman" on YouTube
I will say he is very entertaining. Much like OCD Mikey but I see more value in some of the OCD guys videos.
