| Upgrading to a stand alone DAC I’d think either the Gustard R26 or the new Denafrips Ares 15th would be a meaningful improvement in all areas. Best of luck. | |
| Miller & Kreisel S300 THX Speaker They’re probably really good, but I’d probably go for the ATC SCM20 because their midrange and dynamic capabilities are really something, and they’re quite a bit cheaper than the S300s. Just another potential option FWIW, and best of luck. http... | |

| Class D Option For Bass Here are a couple options — “only” 200Wpc but put out considerably more into 4 Ohms so hard to imagine it’s not enough. Best of luck. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650117824-bel-canto-design-ref500s-in-black/ https://classdaudio.com/pro... | |

| Is Prima Luna evo 300 a good preamp for parasound a21+? The PL would probably be fine, but given what you’re looking for I’d hop on this Don Sachs preamp no question. Best of luck. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650106300-don-sachs-custom-tube-preamp/ | |
