A bit of an update on the ProJect Streambox S2 Ultra... I spent a good part of my morning attempting to disable the bluetooth connection as it was not secured. I eventually gave up and reflashed the Streambox with dietpi, I wouldn't recommend this task if you are not comfortable with Linux, but there's plenty of help available in various forums.

Now my custom box is running dietpi and my music collection is accessed with emby, a very slick interface. Audio quality is superb, temps of the box are lower. 

Most of my music files are flac's with some dsd thrown in as well, all sound great. Now to rip my remaining cd's.

Appears that I need to find a more efficient speaker or else move on from the CJ amp.

Maybe I need to give Fritz Speakers a call and see if he still builds floor standers. Or, I could consider Spendors like in the A series as a alternative, too.

Thanks, Dsper

@dsper, If you don't expect live volume levels, it might work.

Thank You for the follow up to my query. I want to say that there is another CS 1.2 fan/owner on the Panel. At your leisure, read through this thread from the beginning. There is a plethora of information available to everyone.  It appears that you are a "tech guy" Any special aspect or discipline in Audio?

I look forward in reading more about your Musical taste and system.

Happy Listening!

Not really, in a past life I was a Unix/Linux sys admin, though I was also a network tech, hench the oldtechguy. I did go through this lengthy thread, got rather interesting in a few places.

My music taste is really eclectic, currently Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats are playing, the previous album was by The McDades. I will listen to just about anything musical.
