Thoughts on using the DAC in my oppo 205 with a CD Transport.
MSB, which is no slouch of a company, used to base their universal disc transports around the Oppo 103; they kept the loading tray and transport mechanism but took out the Oppo DAC and changed everything else, including a separate matched power su...

If I was wealthier than I am, I would have no problem spending any amount of money on killer monitors, because I do live in an apartment with smaller space to work with. If I wanted, I could add a sub, too, to take care of the lower frequencies.   
ChatGPT Willsenton R800i 805 vs Line Magnetic LM-805ia

I have a pair of Marten Parker Duo 2-way speakers from Sweden. As for how much is too much and other pricing info, that is entirely, 100% dependent on one's budget, income, savings, etc. I can't tell anybody else what is too much for them.

Favorite Newly Discovered Female Vocalist
@ronkent - Totally agree about Kate; my favorite of her's is 'The Dreaming'. But one reason she may not have been mentioned is that she may not be a 'new discovery' to that many people.   
Is there a Blu-Ray player that does SACD and has Audiophile quality sound?
I've got an MSB Universal Media Transport Plus from a number of years ago that would tick those boxes. The tray mechanism and remote are by Oppo (when they made these), but MSB completely re-did the electronics and put the power supply in a separa...

Genesis
@tomcarr - and their first album was called 'From Genesis to Revelation', so there ya go!   
Rick Derringer R.I.P
@buellrider97 - yes, so sad to see that. I was at that Day on the Green headlined by the Winter Bros with Rick (I was at a LOT of DoG's); got some great photos from up close, too. Loved Rick's work with Johnny Winter And....
