LDR Active Preamp - does it exist?
Nguyen787,Higher Input sensitivity means a lower number. For example a 1V sensitivity is better than 2V. A 700mV sensitivity is better than 1V. Gain was exactly the reason I chose the Parasound A21 over others, when using my TVC which is a passive... 
Is the Hegel H-20 better than the Parasound A-21?
I tried asking a similar (but not the same) question in 2009. I do not have the answer, but have heard nice things about the Hegel. But I am very happy with the A21. I did get one email from a dealer that the A21 is too much analytical (detailed, ... 
Amp for PSB Stratus Gold
Parasound A21 would drive your speakers beautifully. I have heard the Silver-i and they were really nice speakers. The Gols must be a step up. You can buy the A21 brand-new for much less than your budget.

How much better is Esoteric K-03 vs K-05?
Well, what I meant Jeffkad was - if the K-05 won the silver, the K-03 is much more (probably). Maybe they had not released the K-03 when the players were reviewed of something to that effect :-)

Does your system sound better than most demo's?
What show was this? Was the listening room optimized for the setup? I feel that we at home have an advantage of optimizing our rooms. we go to crazy lengths of positioning the speakers, chairs, panels, etc to within 1/8th or less of an inch. I do ...

DACs and audio formats
Edorr,You are right. I "wish" such a player existed. And that was the question - can a SACD player be upgraded through a firmware to play DSD files via the USB (computer or any new transport) that it already has. These players already have the DSD... 
DACs and audio formats
Thank You Kal, for the information.From whatever information I have gathered, it looks like I need a CDP with native SACD playback and can do DSD via USB. It is not that I have any DSD files with me, but just want to make sure that "I am covered" ...
