@wsrrsw Take a cruise man, they're great.  
SST Son Of Ampzilla II vs Parasound A21 or A23+
@brianlucey Great, glad it worked out for you.  So the Magnus is made in the USA for the Chinese market?  Interesting.    
SST Son Of Ampzilla II vs Parasound A21 or A23+
I was searching for a Son of Ampzilla II for a while but ended up getting a pair of Cherry Maraschino monos, the 60v power supply version, 800w into 2 ohms. Really works great with my Magnepan LRS+. Something to consider.  
ARE AUDIOPHILES OVERLY SENSITIVE BY NATURE?FEELINGS AND OPINIONS?
I'd say many "audiophiles" I've interacted with have been mostly unpleasant and miserable people.  There are many good ones obviously.  The Facebook groups have some of the most miserable ones I've ever seen.  Mostly the "measurements only matter"... 
Rogue CM II v Rogue CM III
Rogue released the updated CM III Dark version so add that to the mix.  
Anybody here pair a Kinki EX-M7 with a Magnepan LRS+ ?
@yyzsantabarbara  I just reached out to Mr. Sanders, thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks yyz, I did a bit of reading about Sanders and I like it.  I heard that Coda builds the amps for him.  Any truth to that?

Thanks yyz, appreciate the comments. I haven’t looked into the Magtechs yet. Does he have any more? As far as Peachtree goes, I have heard mixed reviews but I haven't listened to one yet so I can't really say anything.  The most recent high power... 
On the hunt for a non-tube preamp (or hybrid), long post...
Thanks Auroravengeance, I was looking at a SPL S1200 earlier. Question:  Son of Ampzilla II vs Bel Canto e.One REF600M?

@mrskeptic seems like packets are only half the equation here.

@cfa88  what an incredibly silly comment.  
What's the best EL84 amp?
For me?  Dynaco/Dynakit ST-35  
Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum - Worth spending $700+ for Mk.III version?
I have a Mk III but I’ve never heard its predecessors. I mean, it sounds really good to me and I think it’s worth spending the extra money for the latest model.  
What DAC to buy?
You could try the Eversolo DMP-A6 which is a new streamer/dac that was recently released.  It's very popular and looks to be well made.  
What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today?
I recently tried the Orchard Audio Starkrimson Stereo 2.0 and I thought it was a fantastic amp.  It drove my Magnepan LRS+ very well.  I'm no expert at describing audio gear but the clarity, texture, mids and bass were well done.
