    Arcam FMJ CD17 or Rega Apollo

    Can't speak to your player, but I have a 2 year old FMJ-A39 integrated amp. My first piece of Arcam gear & love it, great build and sound quality.

    interested in thoughts on the Marantz NA8005

    Wow - I actually just bought this unit from MusicDirect and have had it about a month now, and was also considering the Auralic. I use it with an Arcam FMJ A39 integrated amp driving PSB Image T2's. Sound is tremendous; very open and rich. I haven't had any issues streaming any source using...

    Ipad to DAC

    Arcam I have a setup using an Arcam rDock-uni. It's a lightning dock w/DAC, goes into an analog input. Sound is great, charges while docked, has HDMI out as well so you can stream video to your TV. I've found Arcam quality and customer service to be excellent.

    Integrated Amp

    I may need to replace a Classe CAP100 integrated amp - seems I'm going down the rabbit hole with repair costs.

    Fix or replace?

    I'd like some guidance if possible…(be kind, I'm a newb) Currently I have a older (1995ish) Classe CAP100 Integrated amp. I love it and it's served me well, however lately it's had some problems with channels fading in & out - gets worse as it warms up. So it's in for an estimate for repair...
