I don't understand. Aren't they nearfield powered monitors? Isn't the Gato a sweet sweet do it all integrated DAC/Network Player/Amp? Are you just using it for it's DAC and Network abilities? Or are you getting it as you know you'll be buying passive speakers in the future?
I have ordered one of these... should be with me in a week.

Going to hook it up to the PSI Audio A14M speakers in the front room and see what they can do in a larger space.
I've an audition of the Eaton's on Friday... so hopefully by the end of this week I'll know what I am doing.
