with $30k I would go shopping for some Børrensen Audio speakers.

Honestly I come from the camp that "bits are bits" and any of these past generation high quality CD players will make excellent transports as a modern DAC is going to apply jitter reduction and apply a new clock to the signal. With that in mind, I'd pick what looks good to your tastes and is in...

I have had a Musical Fidelity A3.2CD for over a decade. It serves me well. But it definitely benefited from being paired with a modern DAC. I have it now connected via coax to a Gustard X26 Pro DAC and it makes a terrific transport. While I have had no issues with my unit, I am encouraged to...

I think you are better off buying a sound meter and using an app to do sound sweeps. Set it once correctly and forget it.

Buy the best Anthem AVR you can afford with your budget.

I have only ever seen the beta version posted.

I would venture to guess that few people with the D90 are using the XLR and the RCA simultaneously, as the unit is very popular here. When using it in my 2.1 system, I simply ran my sub off of the RCA daisy chain connections provided by my power amplifier. So I did not run into this issue.

Super useful to know. Would you happen to know for the ESS9038pro or ESS in general?
