Sounds like I'll have to look at the Audio Desk. Thanks for the input. 
Audio Desk Record Cleaner-Anyone buy one yet
I've used the VPI several times in the past and thought it did a great job and not terribly expensive. So are these other cleaners that much better? 
Why is the market for used Levinson amps so slow?
From what I've read about his book "Satisfaction" he might be in danger of "overheating.". 
Why is the market for used Levinson amps so slow?

Why is the market for used Levinson amps so slow?
Tmsorosk,I take issue with your insistence that Levinson has no reliability, service, and credibility issues. I have documented my experiences above and I assure you that I could tell you many other true stories from people I know since Harman kic...

LB is a Guitar God. I envy you getting to see him. Keep us posted if he releases a live CD of his solo act. 
Ayre DAC vs Auralic vs Metrum vs Bel Canto
I would not forget to audition the PS Audio Perfect Wave II DAC. I have not heard the other DACs mentioned, but I know first hand that is dynamic, musical, without a hint of fatigue. Several reviews have compared t to the Ayre and Linn and it more... 
Bass amp for a tri-amped system?
I've heard setups both ways. I think with a passive crossover, using the same amps makes sense and in my experience sounds better. With an active crossover it will sort of blend the two or three amps sound's together so there may be less sonic dif...
