PS Perfect Wave Trans/DAC versus Meridian 808.2
Check with music direct. I believe you get $1000 off each for each transport and each DAC you trade in toward $1000 off each Dac and each Transport you buy.The PWT is a CD player with memory, so it plays from the memory. It stores a couple minutes... 
PS Audio PWT / PWD digital connection
Can an ordinary HDMI cable be used between the PWT and PWD I2S ports or is a specialized cable needed?No special HDMI needed, any will do. You do need HDMI to use the I2S feature, unless you use the soon to be released Bridge. I2S is the way to go...

Pass Labs Xono vs. Aesthetix Rhea
I love my X-Ono. I find it musical and authoritative. Pass Labs service is top notch too.

Thanks Onhwy61. I think you need both though. I believe J River Jukebox player outputs natively.

Is that a good thing is the question! ;-) 
Last time you felt that "tingling" sensation?
When I realized what Springsteen's' "Into The Fire" was about. EVERY time I think of this song I get chills. Even now as I type. Heartfelt and sad. It is off "The Rising". Give it a listen. Especially sad with the 10th anniversary of 9-11 coming u...

That filter is pretty special, and the PW Dac is a great piece. Can't speak for the Meridian gear. PS Audio is getting ready to have a trade in program where you can get $1000 EACH off the DAC and the Transport. Check out the newsletter at the PS ...
