@jcarcopo, perhaps try an Exogal Comet Plus DAC, FPGA and designed to be used as a direct drive to amps eliminating a preamp? Like James I found the DAC3 a little sterile. Maybe try a W4S STP-SE unity gain pre?Ifi makes a tube buffer as well. 
Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?
I'm glad you and Lynn built and shipped a bunch of units this week, in difficult conditions and parts inventory not nearby, thanks for your dedication. I'm very relieved to hear your health has taken a turn for the better, looking forward to seein...

The LTA kit is very responsive to tube rolling and they can be "warmed/richened" up with alternate tube choices.

Mark is swamped with move related work, getting parts shuttled between temp shop and a couple of storage units is taking all his time, and energy. He's still recovering from his major migraine, and a surgery on his hand. He and Lynn are meeting mu...

teajay, Thanks for the update! Your access to 3 Tektons will give us a valid insight into each model's sonics and help us make a good choice.

mac, The Lyngdorf doesn't actually have a "DAC". It takes digital in, translates PCM to PWM, and uses that to drive the mosfet outputs. Bill and James are spot on about the 2170, use as a one box "does it all" or why bother.

Bill, You are spot on about no buzz about the Lyngdorf TDAI-2170? The reviews are exceptional, RoomPerfect is top shelf, and the Direct Digital amp topology works great, takes HDMI in, integrated amps are "in" currently, why no love for the 2170? ...

schw06, Thanks for your impressions of the TDAI-2170, especially with a bias against it being so good. I'm not surprised about the soundstage/imaging being stellar as RoomPerfect is top notch, but your findings about tonal saturation and rich text...
