Most of us will never know how good (or poorly) our amp sounds because of the components that send signal to it

I have Audio Alchemy DPA-1 which receives signal from my Oppo 105 with upgraded LPM, an Audio Alchemy DDP-1 + PS 5 outboard power supply, connected via top quality Coax. Speakers are Emerald Physics KCIIs, open baffle. It is quite an enjoyable system 

A friend brought over his laptop with a few demo quality recordings and a TOL cable.  This configuration bypasses the 105 and the preamp/dac. My jaw dropped. It was no contest. The resultant music was stripped of all artifacts, transporting me extremely close to the recording.
