McCormack dna1 to Sony 1040

edsnipered,
If you want to focused on two-channel audiophile quality sound and want some floorstanding speakers to pair with your DNA1, my suggestion is Thiel 1.2/1.5/1.6 or even the 1.7, you also can search the system page to see what other members choice of speakers for the DNA1 or ask a question on speakers section in this forum for recommendation.

I come across a Sony tae9000es wanting to try to hook str dn1040 to my DNA 1 this will work won't it guys

Will it work?  Don't care.  Your DNA-1 deserves better.
