How much difference does an anti-vibration audio rack make
They make a big difference with turntables. Otherwise, not so much. 
Any experience with Tannoy loudspeakers?

Are DAC's overpriced?

That's a good speaker for the money :) 
Are DAC's overpriced?

Meadowlark Ospreys.. fighting under their weight class?
If I didn't own Tannoys, I'd be tempted to try the Meadowlark Blue Heron II's that were just listed on Audiogon for a good price.
