I say don't jump the gun on DACs Santa might bring some surprises.

I think that's a good call; I probably won't be purchasing 'til around that time anyway.

I think you'll be *very* happy with where the DACs are going, and the timeframe.

Oh man don't tease me! Ok fine. Actually thank you for jumping in with the tease. I'm so impressed with the Schiit stuff, and will definitely be in for an end of year purchase.

I'm quite happy with a very specific DAC right now (yggdrasil for the drop-in audience), thank-you!

I agree with the OP. Over the years I had quite a few amps I tested my HD 800 and the Anedio with but this "only" 380€ thing blows a huge tons of expensive amps away.
Next up: Rolling with 1980 Novosibirsk 6N6P and ECC85.
