Whats playing on your system today?
@ghosthouse , I thought this was folk music. But anyway, I liked the music. Wiki page indicates that it is Lucinda Williams on this album. Will check out other albums by Allen and see if I like them.

Why don't you use the Luxman as a transporter for your DAC? Are you storing the ripped files on a  
Agoners: Need Advice! Have 3K to spend on an Amp, what do I do with no way to audition?
IF you want a brand new one, then you should simply buy a Parasound A21 and spend rest of the money for buying music or upgrading other components in your system. 
When and how did you, if at all, realize vinyl is better?
@gregkohanmim,I spent ~35 years in software engineering and can hear the "code" in digital music reproduction and was always of the opinion that code was obsolete as soon as it shipped and should always be improved on.This is a completely new one....
