[QUOTE="DeonC, post: 1140264, member: 1210"] I would start with the DAC. I think that is the main culprit here. You might find that is where you end. Ask Francois, he might just have something hidden in the closet. I don't think the ATI is that bad, but it can be improved upon. It is better than a Rotel RC970 pre, as much as I respect Rotel (I sold Rotel at one stage, and am really a fan of the brand, but this is apples and oranges). All of your components are a step up from what you had other than your digital front-end and maybe your speakers (those Lowther can sound special). I still think, start with a better DAC, the Benchmark or whatever Francois suggests, or even the Perreaux dac/pre, and take it from there. [/QUOTE]
