The Streamer-Dac-Preamp Chain
I have the Roon/Quboz down stream Moon 860 v1 and 2 Prima Luna Evo 400. In between Rose 130, PSA DSD MKii, AR LS28SE.  Perfect combination.   
Tube Sound With Equalization?
TMR has a Modwright tube buffer used at a decent price. I think it also has balanced inputs.  
Good choice for 20' XLR cable?
I have Transparent Audio XLR running my top end and Harmonic Technology Truth link running bass. But honestly all you need is a pair of Mogami gold AES/EBU XLR they actually sound fantastic and are a great bargin.

Thanks, got it figured out.  Had to log out and log back in,  then it gave me the full access.  For some reason all the choices were set to accept except the daily forums.  Very weird.  Anyway Happy Thanksgiving and Happy holidays to all.

Reasonably priced preamplifier

New KEF Reference 5 speakers
Old thread I know, I have been trying a pair and initially they sound good tight base clear highs. But after 3 weeks they are sounding thin and kind of lifeless. Added back in my modded Tyler Acoustic Halo Extreme and the 3d was back the excitemen... 
15k for streamer and dac....how much on each?
No one brought it up but I have been circling around the Aqua Audio Linq and the LA scala mkii optologic dac. I also use Roon and the Linq is supposed to have been designed to integrate with Roon. Has anyone had any experience with this combo?
