Bingo84I don't know as there's much to review? Unless it blows up my 789 or sounds like chainsaws inside a concrete tumbler, it'll probably be worth it. I guess I can post a few words, but being that it was such a simple device, I'll make sure to come back to this post if I have to eat my words.
@tscolin Honestly man. It's been such a long wait, and I'm excited to see if it was worth. I mean, balanced DAC no matter what, and I liked my SDAC, so adding optical and coax and a full size USB-B port seems like a winning formula. Mine is slated to arrive Wednesday.
TaylorDIt's been a very long wait, and i believe it will be worth it. This DAC combined with my 789 is essentially end game backend for me. My next purchase will be Focals... then I'm done. For real, done, i cant justify further purchases for negligible results.
tscolinLol, Endgame? I dunno man. I can be happy for a while but your ears get bored. I still wanna hear Aeolus or Auteur for myself just to see what that is, and also Andros lol.
That being said, I don't have a desire to go any further with my signal chain for a while, with the possible exceptions of an R2R DAC and/or an OTL Tube Amp lol.
tscolinIf you're considering purchasing Focal headphones to complete your end game set-up, I highly recommend you spring for the Clear instead of the (admittedly lower-priced) Focal Elex. Those that have heard both confirm that the Clears are superior.
