That looks awesome. The one thing is that I was looking at an avr cause it'll give me volume control with a remote. Is there any other way to have remote volume control?

Thanks guys for your help! I think after some research I'm going to go with a Cambridge Audio Azur Receiver? Looks like it has the quality and value I'm looking for. What do you guys think?  ...

I was wondering if there was any like the Chase RLC-1 out there? I wanted something to control the volume out of a DAC/pre-amp with a remote. I plan to also connect a tv/blu-ray along with my music and would love to have a remote. Hopefully the audio won't be effected by it. Something affordable...

Do you guys have a receiver that you'd suggest for a newbie with digital inputs? Something like that AMP-100?

I'm fairly young at 23. I know they're not the greatest speaker, but they do the job for me at the price I got them for. I would say my budget is at the very most 300? 

So after a bit of research I think that the http://www.mav-audio.com/base/product/tube_magic_d1 The Maverick D1 DAC is what I need? Seems to have all the input/outputs I need at a very good price.

Hi, I have a set of Klipsch Promedia 2.1's and was wondering what the best way to connect them to my tv and computer. I looked at the Creative DDTS-100 which many people seemed to suggest, but they don't make them anymore. I guess I'm in need of a DAC or a receiver? I'm still new to all this...

If that is your only worry then you should check out the fs mod for the super.fi's. I was worried about that too but apparently they are much more comfortable this way and discreet.

I'm not sure about the Klipsch, but I was in a similar search as yours and ended up just ordering the Super.fi 5 pros. From what I've read you can even get the Shure olive foamies on them for comfort. They seem to be highly regarded a great value for price. I got mine for 189.99 and 20% cashback...

I was wondering if there was a portable amp out there that balances the A900. I finally ordered them and can't wait til they come. From what I understand the A900 has a problem with the treble and mids?

Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you very much HeadphoneAddict

Cool be sure to let us know your opinions!

So I'm guessing nobody has heard both the Pico and D2?

I will be keeping an eye on this forum cause I'm planning to get the ath-a900, but I would also like information about portable amps to if oldson doesn't mind me sharing the thread.

It could be used as a portable DAC for a laptop or umpc possibly?
