Can a apple airport express be part of a audiophile system?
Don't want to go off on a tangent, but you may want to consider the following. If you can find a used Wadia 171i (not 170) or a Cambridge Audio ID100 Ipod docks then hook them up to your DAC you are in business. Read reviews on both items and deci... 
Martin Logan Prodigy with Sonic Frontiers Power
I have the ML Request and not the Prodigy; however, the best amp I have used so far and still use is the Plinius SA100 III. It is only 125 watts, but that is not an issue as this amp has no problems driving the Request. Consider one of the Plinius...

Any upgrades for the SFL-2 Preamp?
