My pleasure speaking with you.

@rvpiano  I don't have a credit card on file here at A'gon anymore, so I think this is how I have to reply. It's been a couple of years since I have used the Sys.  But yes, the Sys was a step down from using my Copland CTA 305 tube preamp.  Alth... 
I am sad
@samureyex  As the saying goes, "Never wrestle with a pig, because you both get dirty and the pig likes it".

With the Sys, assuming you have a preamp problem, you are up and running for the price of a cheap tube.

@rvpiano  Since you have multiple sources, you have ruled out that it is a source problem. Pretty much leaves the speakers (unlikely) amp or preamp.  If you had a spare amp or preamp you would have already tried them. If it was me I would order... 
Streamer, no DAC please?
@larseand  Is it possible to find a quality steamer without a DAC?  I believe that you will find that a majority of streamers sold are stand alone without built in DACs.  
No one talks about Purist Audio Design cables.
If memory serves, member ebm used Purist Audio cables.  I greatly enjoyed his short and to the point posts.  Sadly, while he posted regularly, his last post was dated April 5, 2023 when he dropped off the face of A'gon.

Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers
@deadhead1000  I would suggest you find a girlfriend, or several, who have floor standing speakers.  Win, win, win.  
Canare 4S11"G" now available!
@mofimadness  Thanks for your response, it actually saves me from building a set of the 4s11Gs.  My experience with speaker cable is limited as I have only used Belden, Alpha Core Goertz, Acoustic Zen, the inexpensive Micca cables Steve Huff was ... 
Canare 4S11"G" now available!
@mofimadness  I may have missed it, but what was your conclusion of how the 4s11G stacked up against the 4s11 (which I use).      
NEW Tekton Design Speakers - The Bonnevilles
They are some of the larger stand mounts I have seen lately.  
Help :( Speakers making constant static sound I cannot figure it out
@chrisryanhorner  Why did you ignore @wturkey 's good advice above: If the amp is using a 3 prong power plug, use a cheater to remove the ground pin to see if it is a ground loop noise.  A cheater plug is only like $1.00 and eliminates a few ...
