Different R2R DACs
Good question. Maybe add Audio Mirror Tubadour III to your list. I have not heard it, but it gets rave reviews.

I saw the Moody Blues several times over the years. Took my son to see them at Caesars Tahoe when he was 12 years old. His first concert experience.  
To DAC or not to DAC ?
@jrbirdman333  In what way?  
Just a thought on first impressions, items for sale....and your thoughts.
On ebay you see a lot of estate stuff pulled out of a basement and listed as is. The seller doesn't care.

@chakster What modern MM cartridges under $1000, if any, do you recommend? 
What cartridge for a prime super scout 10.5 arm.? Budget $500
The Hana SL retails for $750, but can be found for less.

@luisma31Good question. 
CD Player/Transport Quandary
I've had the same experience when playing a CD on my Apollo-R and switching to the Orchid DAC. It' very difficult to hear a difference. I will do what Chayro suggested. That said, streaming through the Orchid is wonderful.
