sns how do you sync the 006 to the Gaia clock?  
First impressions of new MH-DA006, Musetec flagship
I'm sure I can do better than the lks 100.  It provided a very happy stopping point a couple years back.  But, now that we are moving into the winter, and I am developing an itch to see about improving the system, I will likely get the Gaia.  I le...

Thanks, sns, these are very interesting conclusion and may well cost me some money!   As I've said previously, I settled many months ago on feeding my 005 through I2s using the LKS usb 100 with matching power supply as my DDC.  It beats usb in m...

Any conclusions re Gaia-006 vs Gaia-Harmony, ie is the Gaia that special in what it brings to both DACS?

Thanks, interesting review/impressions of the Gaia-Harmony combination.  I will also be very interested in your impressions of the 006-Gaia combination.

Where is the review?   I will be interested in your impressions of the Gaia with the 006 via i2S.   I'm still loving my 005 and feed it through i2S.  
SUT With a Manley Steelhead RC?
snackeyp, it’s all about what works for you. Keep trying, you will find something you like.  
SUT With a Manley Steelhead RC?
I've had a steelhead for very many years and find it delightful.  My recommendation is that you run your mc through the mm input and max the gain.  It sounds much better than the mc input.  
Siltech cables. Help to recognize originals.
Can't really help in identifying originals but I can say that I have had for many years a variety of siltech interconnects, speaker cables and digital cables and they are outstanding, detailed and neutral cables.  Ignore troll bo.      
Aurender N200
I bought an N200 and put it in place of my A10, which I was using only to stream.  The SQ is excellent and a step above the very fine A10.  I was able to snag an open box unit at a good discount and am pleased with my purchase.  I thought about pu... 
What's the best EL84 amp?
The RM-10 is magical in the mids, silky in the highs, but bass shy.  I have run mine regularly with a subwoofer.    
What's the best EL84 amp?
I think the SIT-3 needs a very particular type of speaker to work well, that being high efficiency but low impedance.  My quintessence are low to mid 90db efficient with a 4 ohm nominal load.  I also have a pass x 150.8 but it never leaves class A... 
What's the best EL84 amp?
The joules were incredible. I had them for many years but passed them on to a new home after I bought a VZN-80 and found it just as satisfying in my system as the rites but in a smaller (and cooler) package. My main speakers are quintessence proto... 
What's the best EL84 amp?
I've had a music reference RM-10 mk 1 for many years and absolutely love it.  I'm currently using it in my second system but, in the past, tried it in the main system in place of my joule electra rites of passage to see how it would sound.  I like...
