EMM Labs DAC6 vs. latest version dCS
Yet another helpful post from Hc@holcorcorp.com(and the various alias' he uses) thanks for your contribution, this forum is a better place because of you- that's sarcasm in case any of you missed it(I don't want there to be any confusion). 
B&W 802 N or Magnepan 3.6 ?
Smaller room: the B&W's if you have a large room to accomodate the 3.6s' and a little patience in getting them just right in the room I'd go with the magnepan's. 
which do you like more
I am not familiar with the Marten Coltrane speakers, so I will not even try to make a comparison. The one thing I will add is the drivers used in kharma speakers are HEAVILY modified from stock form. Just for an example on the focal tweeters used ...

Gerry- I hate to do this to you, but your system will thank you :o) As much as I liked the Cap. II and as good as I still think it is- there is a new king of the hill and it bears the name Emm Labs. Don't get me wrong in its respected price range ... 
Are Magnepan MG-IIIa speakers problematic?

Review: Emm Labs DCC2 DA converter
Ral- Having had the DCC2 now for over a month I am even more impressed then I was initially. I had a DP-75v 2-3 years ago when it was the "hot" player to have, having heard/owned quite a few players since then I became aware of how flawed the 75v ... 
Amp for Maggies 3.6R
There are many good options at various price ranges- what are you looking to spend? I have tried about 12 amps in my system and have a good idea of what works and what doesn't. The golden rule is the more clean power the better. 
Question for Tragically Hip fans

Meitner EMM DAC6e Redbook Performance
I am surprised you have not heard the raves about the redbook performance- that's the reason 90% of Emm labs owners are using it(myself included). Yes most all of us listen to SACD and it is unbelievable, however, I have 250 SACD's and 2000 Redboo...
