Puritan PSM156
@jriggy I had asked my dealer for advice on a power conditioner and he had a used AQ Niagara 5000 which I was considering, but he said the Puritan would be better. He said he can't keep them in stock they are selling so fast. I shouldn't have an i...

Integrated amp choice. Ayre AX5 Twenty vs Mark Levinson 585
I'm thinking of selling my 702S2 for used 805D3 and adding a sub. I will be driving them with McIntosh MA6600. Anyone here go from 700 series to 800? Thoughts?

Looking for best streamer without DAC under $3500
I'm sure it won't sound better that's how I would just use it as a streamer, but it would be fun to compare as well. I'm only considering it because it's cheaper than the mini.The Ambre is really good, i just want spotify among other aps and yes I... 
Looking for best streamer without DAC under $3500
Right on. I may just have to pull the trigger on that.How familiar are you with Lumin products? I enjoy the Metrum and tried a Mytek Brookyln for a short time but found it too be too bright/clinical sounding. But as most of us in this hobby, it's ... 
Looking for best streamer without DAC under $3500
@dznutz  Would it be silly to get a D2 and use as a streamer? There's one on Audiogon for $1750 right now. I see it has a BNC/Coax.
