Taking your last question, I wouldn't hold your breath for a review unless you hear that one is planned. Besides, I find it's more fun to buy the component that has the features I want, and sounds the best, and then wait for a review to see if it agrees with my opinions. I'm waiting now for someone to come out with a review of the Revel Performa3 speakers to see if I'm correct in thinking that the Revel F208 is the best speaker ever. haha

As for music players, I'm a Windows XP/Foobar2000 user for the music system, and though I have iTunes on PC's, I stopped using it several years ago, mostly because I'm just not an Apple person. I hear great things from JRiver users that I know, and a Mac version is available now if that's the way you want to go.

I also use a Grace m903, but I would seriously consider either the Benchmark, or Mytek if I was looking for DSD playback capability, provided I could hear one first, which I don't think I have yet.

All the options in your post are good.
