Yes! Amarcord! I watched the mop tops on Ed Sullivan too. And the screaming girls were in full force too.  Fast forward to now and there’s a bra and panties ad on the bottom on this page.  Perfect.  Then and now all in a swirl.   
What is the current retail cost of your reference system?
I have read this thread and thought carefully about my answer.  Here it is. Not Enough. I do buy the occasional lottery ticket.

Focal? Macigo? Bigger SF???

Anyone tried fiber into EtherRegen SFP?
@lollipopguild Yes. Correct. I also use the Ubiquiti Networks Networks UniFi Switch 8-Port 150 Watts. I tithe to ubiquity. They make great stuff and their app is easy enough to sort out. I have the entire ER kit, clock, SFP, etc. PM me if you wa...

To DSP or not to DSP that is the question.  To me their DSP is tempting. They no longer make just a DSP unit or pre amp w/ DSP but rather have RoomPerfect room correction with their amps and processors.  
Anyone tried fiber into EtherRegen SFP?
We wish to welcome you to Munchkinland! ER with fiber into its SFP port... Yes I did try. With my gear, I found the sound a bit too too sterile and went back to using ethernet cables in/out as that sounded more analog. YMMV. Per Uptone’s instruc...

Streamer/DAC - Where is the value?
Aurender N200 or Lumin T3 both punch well above..... Aurender N200 is not Roon compatible where as Lumin is. This isn’t the first time I’ve typed I was never going to use Roon until I did. Software interface is an integral experience part of the j... 
Using streaming as a main source ---DSD, FLAC, MQA Streamers and DACS
@kiwiscott Take it you are in New Zealand. If you are USA or 🇨🇦. Where are you? Asking to see if there’s a friendly sort here that you might visit or what dealerships to point you towards?      
Using streaming as a main source ---DSD, FLAC, MQA Streamers and DACS
  KISS. Get an all in one streamer/dac. Listen ‘n learn. First step. Hold A new or used bluesound on the low end to Lumin or Arunder on the high end are such units. A new Lumin T3 or used Lumin T2 will leave room in your budget for audio grade e... 
DIY Steampunk Tube Amplifier, feedback please :)
Awesome! Even more so that you made it.   
RIP Jeff Beck
While we can all agree that he was fantastic. There are always differences as to what’s representative. These are a must for me. “Brush w/ the Blues” , “‘Good by Porkpie Hat”  and “She’s a Woman” He rocked my world. He rocked the world. RIP  
Suggestion for $10K soup to nuts digital?
If Roon, then no Aurender. That’s too bad as their stuff is mighty fine. Can you audition a Lumin T3? It preforms well above it’s price.   
Subwoofer boom is too much for me...
Also think placement then crossover setting/gain key. Perpahs four is too many?
