Frank,
There's no hurry. As you know from our previous conversations, we work at your convenience. We also don't take "months" to review things. Our stated policy is 30 to 60 days, depending. It will be a priviledge to work with you when the time comes. We do get a lot of requests for reviews of your components.
Any of the models mentioned above would be great - DACs, amps, tube, solid state.
Oh! Speaking of our conversations! i know your views on cables, so I thought I'd share this anecdote with you. A company sent us some rather pricey POWER cables to review. Now, I've been very skeptical of those, too. I plugged in into a $2,000 KT88 integrated tube amp I'm reviewing. I wasn't expecting much, but the difference was very audible and better. So, as I often do, I did a blind test with my wife who is very good hearing things WHEN then are there. I played a very familiar cut for her (in total darkness) twice, then had her leave the room. I switched out the cable and brought her back in. Played the same cut. She had NO idea what had been changed and it was still dark in the room.
She heard the difference immediately and described it perfectly. We were both amazed. She could not believe it was a power cable.
Is that nuts?
