@lalitk Hey, I am building it slow and methodical. I have Pass Labs XP-12 and the X250.8. I just picked up a pair of Dynaudio Contour 60i a few weeks ago. I have Cardas Cyngus cables on the way now and I got an Audioquest Niagara 1200 with a 2m Mo...

@holmz I agree with you. I have been taking my time. In no rush, I am trying to be smart and methodical in my decisions. I feel it’s been working so far. There are enough dac options to make your head spin these days.

@hilde45 I was leaning at the Cardas cyngus. I have talked to a few people that say they would do Cardas clear but that it’s a lot to just start with in my opinion. To top it off I have not had a chance to here the system yet. I was also looking a...

@russ69 I am building it now. The pre amp, amp, and speakers are still in their boxes. I’m trying to get an overall on opinions as I go along. I knew I wanted pass labs so I got that first, then the speakers.
