Rogue Audio Sphinx V3


I'm interested in purchasing the Rogue Audio Sphinx V3 based on all of the positive reviews for not only Sphiunx V1-V3, but several of the other Rogue products.  Fundamentally I believe in the "bang for buck" type of products, and that there are always a handful out there.  For example, I've been extremely please with my DALI Ikon 2s which I'd put in the same bucket.

Separately I very much like the concept of each piece of equipment doing one job.  I understand that this is an Integrated, and maybe one day I'll get my dream of all separate components.  I mention this because the Sphinx is pure analog.  I like that all of the funding that went in to this component hasn't been "wasted" on features.  To complete the picture, I'm using a Pro-Ject Carbon SB and a Pro-Ject Tube Box S.  I'm extremely curious about comparing the phono pre-amps.  At some point I will add a digital source, but while I'd really like that to sound exceptionally nice, my focus is on the analog.

As I've yet to read a negative review on any of the Sphinx versions, I was hoping I could get some opinions specific to the V3, and hopefully some insight to the pairing with the DALI Ikon 2s.

Thanks in advance for the feedback!

I pulled the trigger also 2 months ago - and absolutely enjoy this amplifier more and more everyday- haven’t listened to music this much in years- listening to all vinyl as the phono pre-amp is amazing for a $1400 piece of equipment- don’t let the class-d naysayers fool you- one of the most musical amps for $ value 
Msafrick- the Belles Aria is almost $800 more and is only 75wpc- less than rogue - I think you may be jumping to a different cost level?
Two very different amps. Can see each having certain types of followers. Belles is considerably more expensive. Tube rolling can significantly improve the Rogue's SQ.
