Thanks! I definitely agree that auditioning lots of equipment gives peace of mind in the equipment choice.However, ignorance is sometimes bliss :-), and perhaps I really shouldn't listen to all that expensive audio equipment because then I'll start wanting it. Sadly, it's too late for me and I am already thinking tubes...
Unfortunately, I couldn't find a 5.1 tube pre/pro. I was looking. The soluton was superior but affordable. That is a Meridian w/ external 24k tube DACs.$$$, restricted my tube fix to headphones. The path is cleaner anyway.
Think about it - digital+tubes, hmmm, oil+water, hmmm, Haydn+Rob. Naaahhh.
Yes, I did a load of thinking about it betwixt a whole lot of listening. It was exactly what I found missing in 5.1 channel sound. That's precisely what I was searching for. But like I said before, it would require a Meridian w/ 3 external tube DACs.I did an exhaustive search. The closest thing was a new BAT coming out that had all 3 fronts tubed for $10k.
