2nd systems- who’s got one?
2nd system in my beach home.  It’s not the biggest room so went with Paradigm Persona B speakers and an Anthem STR Integrated.  Streaming through an Innuos ZEN Mini MK3.

Thanks for all for responding.  Really appreciate the thoughts and suggestions.   
Paradigm Persona B vs 3F vs other competitors - any experience?
The room I have my Persona B’s in measures 12’ x 14’.  The ceiling height is 9’.  No special acoustic treatment.  I did run ARC via the Anthem STR Integrated.  For a bookshelf speaker, I find the sound field complete with a natural balance.  Will ...

Innuos - New Player App
Will the new version include the Player App? Hoping it rivals Roon. 
Anthem STR or Lyngdorf TDAI 2170?

DAC - Aqua Formula or Aqua La Scala
audiotroy - In your experience will moving to a tube pre-amp provide more benefit over losing ARC? 
Has anybody tried Qobuz Streaming service?
I am a Qobuz subscriber.  Love it.  Great music selection and sound quality.   
DAC - Aqua Formula or Aqua La Scala
audiotroy - What Tube pre-amps are you using with your 9h set-up? 
Should I buy Anthem 1120 for a 11 speaker system or Sony 5000 ES
Yes.  I felt the Anthem produced a much cleaner sound, more power, and with ARC you cannot go wrong.   
Upgrade A/V Receiver or get 5 Ch. Amp
Anthem is releasing the new version of ARC in the next few weeks (ARC Genesis).  It has been redeisgned and will run on your MacBook. 
Music server
I did a Roon trial with my Innuos Zenith.  Really liked it.  Great interface, intuitive, rich feature-set...... I decided to hold off purchasing the lifetime subscription for now and switched to iPeng.  It is not in the same category but works.  I...
