Stereo amp narrower than 18" for Martin Logans
Kjweisner -- thanks.. good to know that you like that one with electrostats. I'll check it out. 
Stereo amp narrower than 18" for Martin Logans
Thanks -- I'll probably go with the MC7300. It seems to be the right fit and is about the same price as my Krell KSA-100. 
Cheap volume for large room
So I need a sub or two.... ok I'm gonna try a couple Earthquakes Supernovas since it'll be cheaper than replacing the MLs. Klipschorn looks intriguing so maybe I'll look for somewhere to listen. Thanks for all the suggestions!!!

Thanks for the suggestions.Unsound -- Klipschorn...looks different...what's the catch?Btstrg -- The ML Prodigy is only a step above my ReQuests. I really think the electrostats are part of the problem because of their characteristic placement sens... 
Audiophile USB to PCM

Less expensive alternative to MH-750
Thanks guys!!!

Should I pay a lot for a DAC?
Thanks very much for the comments. I'll save and go for the better DAC. So far I've got a pair of Martin Logan reQuests and a Krell KSA-150. Looking to get a tube amp for the highs and it looks like a Benchmark DAC or one mentioned in this thread.
