My DAC choices recently came down to MHDT Orchid and Audio Mirror. Based on some good discussion with people I trust, I picked up the Orchid, and it is one amazing DAC. I had several other higher priced DACs, and this one is way more musically engaging. I'd put it high on your list of considerations. Good luck putting it all together!

Well here it is. I sold my Tekton Double Impacts and my Lyngdorf 2170 a while back. I thought it sounded very good! I was getting out of audio and wasn't listening much anymore. Well..... now winter is here, I'm bored and have the itch to get something descent again.
I like rock/metal/bluegrass/ acoustic/ some country. I need impact and good midbass and low fatigue. I have a Crown DCI 4/300 and a upgraded Jolida Fusion preamp at the moment. Plenty of power for almost anything.
My biggest pet peeve is cabinets that start talking at high levels or when the sound hardens at high levels.
Willing to drive up to 300miles 1 way for the right deal and I am in West Mi. A little older does not bother me at all. I've just started looking and a few I've been eying are:
Aerial LR5 or Model 9
Dali MS4
LSA 20 statements (new)
KEF 205/2
Dynaudio Focus 360
Any others anyone feels I should keep an eye out for in this price range?
Thanks
