Description

Replaced sound card and Xa7es with Teac Dsd Dac. Finally found a setup to that can rival my old Xa7es from my HTPC.

Looking to test Martin Logans. I listen to electromotions and it's the first time I was not bothered by the panel sub intergration. Thinking about getting a pair or picking up used Montis or Theos. Really don't know if my Classe amps will be enough and don't want to buy both right now.

Update: Sold the Aragon soundstage. Bought the Martin Logan's. I decided the best sound card and pre amp is no sound card or preamp I run directly into the amplifier, the ca200. Control everything from JRiver.

Nice system. Keep us updated on what it takes to get the PC equal to the XA7ES.
