New Class D amplifiers
I agree with soix.  For example,, you may want to consider the new Peachtree GaN1 digital amp/power DAC.  Great sound quality.  
Peachtree GaN 1 Beta
Got my Gan1 and Node a week ago but only hooked it up yesterday.  Even without adequate burn-in, initial impressions are very favorable.  I've been listening to RP mellow mix, Stockholm Jazz Quartet and Melody Gardot - and all at low volume.  A re...

@jw944ts   I had an email exchange with PD (presumably Pavel) about a 120v LPS.  He recommended Sbooster or Jay's Audio.  He didn't say anything about any upcoming PD offering.  Here are the options available now recommended by either PD or Agon m...

This is a very interesting thread.  I just received a Peachtree Gan1 and Bluesound Node package.  For me this is a return to the Node, after having wasted a year with Volumio on a MiniDSP SHD.  That experience gave me a new appreciation for the im... 
New streamer? N150 vs U2
@txp1  I am one of the people you mentioned who is returning to a Node because of the app.  I sold my Node 2i and moved to a miniDSP SHD with the Volumio app/ OS.  Volumio was a very bad experience, completely overshadowing any SQ improvement from... 
Peachtree GaN 1 Beta
Anybody have issues with getting their Gan 1?  I placed an order in early November.  At that time they said they'd be shipping in December, but they took my money right away.  Having heard nothing I followed up on 12/7.  At that point they said th... 
VTV D300 Digital amp
MiniDSP makes good products, IMHO, but the Flex has a limitation that may rule it out for many.  Running Dirac Live the sample rate is limited to 48kHz.  Perhaps future iterations of the Flex will improve (the SHD Running Dirac supports 96kHz), bu...

I have been following this thread with interest, especially as I have ordered a Gan1 and expect delivery any day.  I appreciate the criticisms and cautions (if not the tone of delivery).  I have a healthy respect for the "scientific" approach to a...

+1 for Melody Gardot and thanks for the various recommendations.  I'll try them out soon.  
What Gear Has Disappointed You?
Like okhunter and mahler123 with their Brystens, I have a major user interface disappointment only mine is with miniDSP and Volumio.The hardware (SHD Studio) is fine, but the Volumio os/ui is so frustrating that after a year of trying to get comfo... 
Sonus Faber speakers - what's your experience?
oddiofyl - coincidentally, I am considering a trade for a pair of Concertinos for a secondary system.  They'd be used in an apartment primarily for vocal music, some low key jazz, blues and rock and paired with a Martin Logan sub.  I've not heard ... 
What are/were the best sounding cheap components you have ever had?
Well, in 1975 I bought a friend's 100 album rock vinyl collection for $10.  Paired with a Shure V15-III.  Great sound for a pittance.  More recently I picked up a Qudelix 5k USB headphone amp/dac/dsp.  Shockingly good for $100.  
NODE as just a streamer / Airplay device
I can recommend the Node2i as an excellent streamer.  I did not think much of the dac and bypassed it, but I understand the newer version has an upgraded dac. I replaced it with a miniDsp SHD Studio because I wanted DiracLive dsp.  That it does, ... 
Newbie seller
Yup.  Done.  Thanks for all the comments.

Update:  I've emailed the buyer twice with no response.  I guess its safe to assume that it was delivered.  It didn't occur to me that the USPS tracking would be so screwed up.  Well, thanks to everyone for the comments.
