| the tough question: Which preamplifier? and why Yes the Lightspeed is quite good if a passive will work in his system.

| MM Tube Phono for $1000 It might run you slightly more if you have Kevin Carter build it for you, but the K&K Basic MM phono would be a good option. | |

| What DAC chip used in Berkeley Audio Design DAC? Looks like the PM DAC to me too and the post seems to substantiate that unless I'm missing something. | |
| Any VAC CPA-1 preamp owners here? Andy at Vintage Tube Services is your man. | |
| Need help with choosing a transport. If you can stretch it the CEC TL51X is a very nice transport. They show up used between $800 - $1000. | |
| unshielded SPDIF digital cable? IMO simpler is better in this case because of both the lack of shielding and minimal use of dielectric and other materials. As I have become more experienced with different cable designs I have come to appreciate these two attributes. However, the... |
