Wow, Karl! You've a great job pairing components that I'm sure are high on synergy. 
Congrats on your new 4Point9. I'm looking forward to more of your comments about it vs. the DP8 etc. 

You may not recall that am the guy who purchased your Audiomods V. I'm still listening to it daily :-) While the 4POINT9 is at the top of my wishlist for my Sota Nova VI, that's a far off investment for me so I'm making interim plans to send my Audiomods to Jeff for an upgrade to his new Series 6. That might hold me over for some time. 

Perhaps I'm following your footsteps down the same or at least parallel path. Cheers,
Spencer
