Hi, I have had two tube digital players, one solid state in 14 months,I like the sound of alot of tube players, However, It always seems that tube players have problems!, These days, alot of solid state players out perform the tube players in every way!, Tube or solid state, what is the best sounding, most reliable, all cost points!, Digital that can be used direct to amplifiers?,, Thankyou!

@ Audioengr,, Hi, No offense to you, I believe you would absolutly be wrong in this case, I own Taralabs zero gold interconnect, can you imagine buying more cables at the cost of these cables?, even the digital zero gold is exspensive, and after hearing what this interconnect does, there is no way I would use an inferrior cable to degrade my sound!, cheers.

Aesthetix is a boutique in California, best know for tube amplifers, mostly its preamps. They also build a DAC (the Pandora), that appears the be a very good performer, and uses it tube technology for volume control (1K option I believe). I was going to audition one but never got around to it. They also have a version of the DAC with build in disc transport (the Romulus). If you're interested I may be able to hook you up with a dealer that may be willing to get you unit for in home audition.
