What are you using as a streamer? Constructive feedback please.
In process of changing from SOTM sms200 neo to Sonore Opticalrendu. My next server will have optical out, goal is to have all optical post modem.  
Musetec (LKS) MH-DA005 DAC
Congratulations! Where does it say dpll 6 best setting for DSD? While the Hidiamond usb may be great at that price, you can do better, it will pay off. I've used Supra, Cardas, Wireworld, settled on AQ Diamond, you will definitely hear difference... 
China built tube amps
I own Chinese equipment, and I have no problem with purchasing it. Still, I'd never buy any 845 amp from unknown, dubious Chinese manufacturer, seen these issues for years with 845's. We're running nearly 900 volts here, very demanding of quality ... 
Wadax Reference Dac and Reference Server--arrived in my room.
It is good to see this cutting edge technology, over time it will wind it's way into more affordable equipment for us mere mortals.   I also experience a more analog like performance with each improvement in my much more modest digital setup. A ... 
Soundstage depth how to improve? Shootout
@klappertjedundas Are your images dimensional, in that they have proportional width and depth. If they are fully dimensional ss positioning shouldn't be much bother. Sounds to me like you're getting FLAT and FORWARD ss, that would be a bother. The...

Yep, steaming is evolving fast and will continue to evolve.  
First Watt Sit-3 paired with Klipsch Cornwall lV?

Battery to Power Your System?

Soundstage depth how to improve? Shootout
Your setup similar to me, I also have Coincident Statement MKII and custom build 300B monoblocks, extreme modded Klipschorn. My ss pretty much like yours, most recordings  balance of sound just behind front baffle of speaker. But this sounds extre...

And so we have thirty three albums analyzed. Were these cherry picked? Does this guy have an agenda? Will one's system expose these varying levels of compression?   Thirty three releases out of the tens of thousands releases, still anecdotal evi... 
China built tube amps
Chinese audio products improving by leaps and bounds, some reaching into reference level quality.   And rather interesting, I'm seeing parts sourced from all over the world in some of their equipment. Nearly every single audio component is world...

So, we have one example of alleged compression, so of course everything compressed on steams, brilliant inductive reasoning.   I had similar path to streaming excellence, only cd rips superior to playing cd's on transport, over time and with con...

@thiefoflight Thanks for the feedback, very  applicable to my intended upgrades.  
It’s all a matter of degree
The tweak is final ingredient added to recipe, just a pinch of whatever spice.

Have to agree on the Tom Rush, Urge for Going, still listen to that one periodically. The Pogues, Lorelei.
