PS Audio Direct Stream with Bridge II or Aurender N100H
Yes, I was aware of that. Maybe they will have it in the future, but at this point, it’s another strike against getting one. 
PS Audio Direct Stream with Bridge II or Aurender N100H
Thanks, that's what I needed to know. I realize the N100H does not have a DAC and that's fine as the Direct Stream is a keeper! No plans to change it. Can you expand a bit on what those sound differences were?Thanks 
Rega RP8 or Technics SL1200G
If no one has mentioned it yet....The new Rega Neo power supply allows you to adjust the speed. I got one for my P7 and was able to dial in the correct speed easily. http://www.rega.co.uk/neo-turntable-psu.html 
No love for the REL S series anymore?
I've owned Strata III and Storm III subs and never had any issues with them.

You may have bad batteries in the BAM. Does it sound any different if the BAM is plugged in to AC?Low feedback sounds best anyway. 
Anyone using Squeezebox server on Mac OS X?
Sufentanil, I put Lion on last night, it works fine. Can't say the same for Squeeze server 7.6, it's totally screwed up.

The B-52 has gain switches, what's the problem with using those? 
Who are these crazy people?
They aren't crazy, they are smart enough to sit down and focus on something for once. I almost always listen that way. 
"The Beatles" Apple Lossless on iTunes?
"Those looking for the Beatles catalog in the highest possible resolution should consider buying the version on flash drive."That's what I did last year before the price went up. 
"The Beatles" Apple Lossless on iTunes?
Why pay for a lower rez download version when you could buy the CD's for the same price or less and rip them yourself?http://www.amazon.com/Beatles-Stereo-Box-Set/dp/B002BSHWUU/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1293554340&sr=1-1 
Ideas for reducing gain on a Belles 21A pre-amp?
There's an interesting idea. Wasn't aware of that company, thanks. 
Broken Xindax SCD-2
Is that the complete unit? The problem with this machine is the drawer hangs up halfway in or out. It can play sometimes if you manually move the gears to get the sled to pull in all the way and bring the laser up in position.
