Antipodes DX or Aurender N10?
Any new Antipodes DX2 owners out there?  Thoughts on the sound versus the previous DX.Thanks 
Streamer with Video Output
Thanks glennewdick for the response.   I love my Chord Dave dac so I really want to stick with that.   Any suggestions on a good streamer that has an hdmi output?  Doesn’t look like Aurender or Antipodes has one.   Any other suggestions?   
Hum coming from Left and Right channel - RCA to XLR Adapter
Al,  Thanks for the very thorough response.    Sounds like i was definitely headed down the wrong path.   I'll give the Jensen transformers a try.Ryan 
Gryphon vs. D'Agostino
Great!   I visited that dealer a couple of years ago to listen to some Rockports I was interested in.   They were very helpful and had a good selection. 
Classe Audio rises again
Really glad to see this as well!   Always has been a good brand and I hated to see it disappear.   
PC suggestions for a Gryphon Diablo 300
Thanks lak.   Robert at Cerious Technologies has always treated me really well.   I may give his SC and XLRs a try.  I've been impressed with his GE Powercords.    I've also always wanted to try Nordost as well....Pretty pricey though. 
PC suggestions for a Gryphon Diablo 300
Interesting comments on powercords having less of an impact on amplifiers versus other system components.     I currently have an Ayre KX-5 Twenty preamp and VX-5 Twenty amp.   I've noticed that while the KX-5 is definitely affected by powercord c...

Thanks for all of the advice williewonka!   Especially, the speaker cable comments.  I had no idea on that.  
Which one is the best INTEGRATED!!
I’m in the same spot.   I have Focal Sopra 3s and just ordered a Gryphon Diablo 300.  Should be here in a few weeks.   I’ll let you know how it sounds.   Hopefully there is good synergy. 
Focal Sopra 2 Vs Wilson Sophia 3
Hi Syk, Did you end up getting the Sopra 2s?   If so what amplifier did you settle with.   I just bought some Sopra 3s and I have a Ayre KX-5 twenty and VX-5 twenty running them.   Sounds very good but I wonder if something else would sound even b... 
Gryphon vs. D'Agostino
I'd love to hear any comments on this as well.    
Classe SSP-800 - Time to move on?
Thanks Ulmerc.  I decided to stick with my Classe SSP800 at least for the time being.   As I move toward a 4k player(oppo205) and a 4K projector, I'll definitely look in to the Crestron switcher you mentioned. 
Sopra 2 soundstage height
ejr1953,   I recently purchased a pair of Sopra 3s and am in the process of dialing them in.  I’ll try the way you have them set up and will focus them in front of my seated position.   Quick question...I too have a couple of jl audio subs(f112s) ... 
Rockport Atria or Avior in Houston to listen to ?
I live in Houston as well, but had to go to Dallas to hear them.  Hi-end Theater and Audio in Plano.  Vu the owner is a great guy. 
Classe SSP-800 - Time to move on?
Thanks jrn.   What do you mean by, "superior steering to the Classe"?
