Polk L100s - tube integrated recommendation
Thanks sryeager. Right now the CM does look like the leading contender. I'm also wondering weather the Line Magnetic 88ia would work but not much on this one on the intranet.  
Polk L100s - tube integrated recommendation
Thanks donvito and soix. Soix - my L100s and Quad 99pre/909 amps sound very good as mentioned above. I'm happy with them. I'm experimenting with tubes so I can't say I'm looking for an improvement but rather a very good experience of what tubes g... 
Polk L100s - tube integrated recommendation
Thanks stereo5...consideration noted. Looking through some articles on the CM, I do think it has potential with the Polk L100s. I'm hoping others can weigh in on other experienced based options.  
Polk L100s - tube integrated recommendation
Yogiboy and secretguy, thanks for theĀ  Cronus Magnum III suggestion! Can either of you comment on whether you have this combo or have some experience with either that leads to the CM III as a good partner. I know a lot of this is personal preferen...

Schiit Aegir pre-amp recommendation
Thanks varchard. Do you use the onboard DAC? If so, how does it sound? I was looking for a small form because I don't want a lot of bulky equipment given my space. If I could replace my NAD326Bee (used as pre) and (NAD M51) dac, I might give it a...

Thank you Santabarbara. The Topping pre90 also looks interesting. Thanks for your writeup.  
Schiit Aegir pre-amp recommendation
Thank you russ69. This is an interesting choice and I see your logic. I appreciate it. Admittedly I'm not an expert but I think most agree that the LS50s can deliver good accuracy and top end with the right components. I think the parasound coul...
