Too bad you didn't have time to stop here in StL.

Don't discount tube CD sources, Audio Note has a single box unit around $2.5k, it's supposed to have the same DAC as I have. If that's so, it's incredibly good, and since the DAC sold for $1.5k and their transports are usually higher than that, the unit is a pretty good deal to boot.

Cayin makes a big 95 wpc tube integrated but it doesn't have an easy way to bias. 50 watts of tube power is pretty potent if your speakers aren't so inefficient. My MV60 was 50 wpc and it pushed my Dyn's pretty well. I could get a decent listening level but it wasn't going to rock the house. I think my Dyn's are rated at 84dB.
