Mejames, I'm asking the same question, IF I don't buy the Capitole or Mephisto, the separates route will possibly be a CEC TL-1X transport teamed up with either an Audio Logic 2400 or Kora Hermes dac. There are some EAD-7000's and Theta Data's that I've been told are very good too, but I think the belt-drive TL 1-X (possibly modded-out) would sound awesome.
