The latest pics also answer my question/concern about how the controls would be mounted -- having the mounting plate on the front is nice.

The integrated amp sounds like a nice package. Since someone is bound to ask "sure, but where am I going to get a wood-fronted tuner ?" I'll just get that out of the way right now.

That said, I imagine I'm pretty much the only one here who still has data limits that preclude internet radio, so DACs (covering computer-stored audio *and* internet radio) would probably get used a lot more than a tuner these days.

LOL - that was my first thought too... albeit about tube pre-amps not amps.

Speaking of tubes... presumably someone will start coding "tube sound" algorithms for DSPs, so all you would need to get into tube rolling would be an internet connection...
