Next upgrade path?

[f1eng]

I upgrade about once every 15 years

Mine is about every 10 year or so. I see the 200 as part of my upgrade........but not the final solution

Well my last update started about 4 years ago when I decided i wanted to check out the higher sampling rate digital files people were banging on about...
I tried a Linn Klimax DS, Resolution Audio Cantata, Sonic Studio version of a Metric Halo lio-8 and a Weiss Dac2. My preference was for the Cantata but I was astounded how tiny the differences between them all were.
The Linn kit crashed too often to be considered a domestic hifi solution (by me) and I bought the Cantata.
Soon afterwards I borrowed a Devialet D-Premier and bought it, adding a second after the on line configurator was introduced allowing a dual mono configuration.
The Cantata ended up in my bedroom...
For streaming music I use an iMac. I have used Amarra, Pure Vinyl, Audirvana and iTunes, via a firewire to AES converter and via AIR wirelessly.
My preference is Air.
I was put off UPnP by the Klimax experience, and ripping in general since tagging classical music is poor on all programmes I have tried.
Whilst I was working and flying to motor races most weeks it was worth ripping so I could load them onto a portable I just used to put them into a sensibly named playlist to find and play them properly. Now I have retired I don't rip new classical CDs any more, just pop, which works fine.
I listen to LPs, CDs and the music library on the computer I already had built for travelling plus a few 24/48, 24/96 and 24/192 files I have bought on the internet.

I bought some horn speakers after two listening sessions, they worked brilliantly with the D-Premier.

I am a big fan your PMCs, and the big 3 way sounds superb, if very inefficient. I think PMC and Sonus Faber speakers have a different house sound. I think a home demo is mandatory at this price level. My dealer is brilliant for this, so I never ask for or expect a discount!
