Happy TMR customer here too. I have sold quite a few items to them over the years. I live locally, and I visit their premises with my items. Pretty cool. I met Josh right at the beginning of his business, when he was operating out of his garage ne... 
How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog?
Let's have some real world stories, at the price point suggested by tzh21y.I have a vinyl front end at the 3k price point, with an excellent phono stage. My CD playback did not rival it until I purchased a stand-alone DAC (Border Patrol). That inv...

Thanks for the update......great reports, just what we need to hear. "-They sound so good that while I've certainly thought about rotating my Klipsch Forte IIIs back in, I haven't done it. " That's a telling user review statement..... 
Wharfedale Elysian?

How is the bass extension/quality compared to your other speakers? 
Reasonable but not outragious interconnects
Virtue Audio Nirvana.http://store.virtueaudio.com/category-s/32.htmI re-cabled my whole system with these, IC and speaker, and I'm very happy, for a low cost. (Used to run far more expensive Kimber, I heard no loss in sound quality when I cheaply ...
