| Ayre Codex vs. ESS SABRE ES9010K2M (Yamaha AS801) Congrats on the A-S801, @soundchasr. I've had one for a number of years in a second system, and think it is a great value. Read the 6moons review on it if you haven't already - "The A-S801 pounds hard on that HighEnd door." The variable loudnes... | |
| DAC Choices - $5,000 to $7,000 @mitch2 - agree with everything you say about the importance of power sections - and Ben does a great job there. The EVO weights 29 pounds! Definitely trial the EVO if you can. PM me if you live in Florida - maybe we can connect. I'm bringin... | |

| Mojo Audio Mystique EVO After about a month of having the EVO, one morning I heard a significant hum out of my speakers. I changed the position of the ground switch on the EVO and that fixed it. I couldn't tell you what the original and current position is, but I can lo... | |

| Suggestions for solid state balanced linestage with remote, $2000 or less I'm in the same situation. My early research has me interested in the Belles Aria Preamp - $1600. (not balanced) | |
| Best cheap integrated amp <$500 new If you're set on new, and not used or refurb, at $500 or less - I'd consider the Denon PM-600NE integrated - $399. Steve Guttenberg had positive things to say about it - and the customer reviews are almost universally positive. Not a lot of powe... | |
