What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report
Now that my new Pangea XL digital coax is broken in, first I replayed Heart I Dream Boat Annie (same code as George) and it was amazingly better, with significantly more bassthen Patricia Barber Companion XRCD. Need I say AMAZING?

Digital Cables: Optical, Coax, BNC, or a simple RCA interconnect?
As previously mentioned, I replaced the 1.5m Pangea Premier SE with the 1.5m Pangea XL, the presentation is much more intimate. I find my body grooving to the music: PRAT. Now, some 50 hours of play time later, I am blown away (especially for $150... 
I’m also worried about how much of the harmonics in the music is LOST by the amp?

I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong
It's been a minute since my previous reply. Since then I have been enjoying an EVS 1200, Ric Schultz's highly tweaked take on IcePower dual 1200AS modules. And I loved it from the start as its 1200 wpc provides the authority my volumetrically la...

My recent foray into digital coax cables includes Pangea Premier SE 1.0m, 1.5m, and finally the 1.5m XL, which is taking a good bit longer to break in, but provides a more intimate presentation, after 3 days with lots of replay (~20 hours so far...

@georgehifi +1 I too listened to it last night. Been breaking in a new Pangea XL digital cable  
Balanced Passive Pre Amp
@mitch2 +1 for KuzmosI owned one for a while and hated to part with it, but got a great deal on a Audio Alchemy DDP- 1 (dac/pre) and couldn't afford to keep it 
Recommendations for speakers that sound great at lower volume levels.
Another consideration is what digital cable are you using?In the last 2 weeks I swapped out my optical cable for coax. If you're price conscious, check out Audio Advisor who has a sale on Pangea: I started with a 1.0m, then a 1.5m (which to my ear...
