DAC Choices - $5,000 to $7,000
PS audio Direct Stream they release software updates that keep your equipment current and up to date 
What s the best Class A integrated tube amp over 80W
Leave you Pass Lab amps ON. I have heard of a sound studio left theirs on for over 20 years without a failure of any kind. You may find a nice integrated amp but will probably not sound as good as Pass equipment.

Pass Labs and Fuses
DavidI have never heard that Pass Labs suggests that you keep their Amps on 24/7. I have an old X250 would you recommend doing the same and why?Please advise  
Pass Labs or Devialet
I have said this before Pass Labs will work on almost any equipment that they  have ever manufactured. Some of the Best customer service in the industry fixed right the first time.  I have also had the same service from PS Audio from Paul, his son...
