Me neither! Unfortunately have to pack it up for a while. Moving again.... twice!Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

I know it's not a tuber, but, this piece gets rave reviews and is priced right:

The one you linked just goes to the main page now. Do you remember which one it was?
Anyone have experience with Vincent?
What about this one...

If you could up your budget just a little, this piece would be of interest.

Doge Audio was started by the former Design Engineer of Jolida, he was responsible for the Jolida JD-100 CDP and many other Jolida products.
The Doge 5 comes in below budget

Also looking at this one...
My PS Audio GCPH has volume control on it, so I could hook it directly into this...
