326S vs. 32 ref
NOBODY has compared these Levinson preamps??? 
2x ECC82 on Jadis JA 30 amplifier
The ECC83 should be next to the EL34, with the ECC82 in the back.... otherwise you will probably damage the tube and/or amp.

Sony SCD-XA5400ES-Best SACD for under $10,000

BAT REX power consumption
Hi Victor, If the REX power module is putting out typically 155 watts, what is the main chassis' output at the same time? 
BAT REX power consumption
Auxetophone, Did you get a reply from Victor regarding the power consumption? 
Reimyo cdp 777 vs Reimyo CDT 777
Can anyone else chime in regarding this comparison? From my reading of reviews the 777 transport forms a great synergy with the 999 dac, but on its' own seems to be just mediocre...whereas the dac is seemingly world class. 
BAT REX power consumption
My understanding is that a 15 amp line can accept between 1650 and 1800 watts, based upon 110-120 volts. I should be safe if the Rex actually consumes 300 watts even with all my sources on at once, although not every component lists power consumpt... 
BAT REX power consumption
Rtn1, My concerns are twofold...first in regards to simply the usage of electricity and secondly adding up the wattage consumption, which includes a biamped system, of all the components as it approaches the limits of my 15 amp line. I am not conc... 
BAT REX power consumption
Auxetophone, Is the 2a fuse in both the power supply and main chassis? Is the power consumption thus limited to 300 watts in total? 
Reimyo cdp 777 vs Reimyo CDT 777
The comparison needs to be done between the Reimyo CDP-777 and the Reimyo CDT-777 transport/ EX-999 DAC. 
Mark Levinson 326S with Nelco board
Just spoke to Richard at Harman....he says no sonic differences, with the Nelco actually being a little more durable. The change was made due to stricter regulations abroad....hmm, I also think costs come into play here.
