1) I have to admit laziness. I haven't gone overboard testing things. I bought the PSX-Rs because of recommendation. My system is rather difficult to get to to change cables etc quickly. I am also not very good at testing as i don't claim to have golden ears. Lots of folks suggest better power supplies are good.... even some of those that think cables can be snake oil. The DAC-X isn't wildly better than my Arcam 93T. The SB3 and dac is fantastic. My speakers have been an issue for while, but these current KEFs work well. 2) The DAC-X doesn't come with a remote. I use a programmable philips device. I can help with how to set the thing up if you wish. -- mudlark SB3>CyrusDACX>PreXvs>260A>KEFiQ7 cable Avondale server Kubuntu Edgy, linkstation for storage.
