Invicta should be colored red IMHO given its outrageous price.

So you wouldn't happen to know the price point for this nice blue colored [redacted] would you? In Q3 of course...

Nothing worse than a DAC tease. :)

Redacted....Why won't you left me plug into just one of your inputs. SPDIF be would fine. I'd only use 16/44.1. But no, I have to wait until Q3 to see anything. We are all getting blue cables out here!  :&

We are going have to try and be patient. I'm not, but trying. It will happen. Sooner than later I hope. Either that or I buy a Yggy, hope my wife doesn't see the name change from the Gungnir and forgets to look at our bank statement this month. Hey, you only live once. And die once.  walk the plank2

Real story...took delivery of Yggy nearly four weeks ago...In local currency (Indian Rupee terms) the Yggy's cost is 147,136. 30% tax comes to INR 45,000. I bring the box home from Fedex and my wife sees the customs invoice amount. She goes: " You have two girls and you're spending 45,000 on music equipment... this is egregious spending". I apologize for the amount spent and she goes: "thank God, the equipment does not cost more than 100,000...". I mumble: "Oh this company in California provides the best value for the money...similar equipment costs more than 500,000"...

Got away big time...:)

LOL Kothganesh.

@Purrin, I know you won't believe me, but with the proper USB2Coax, the Benchmark DAC1 goes one or two notch on the left, and at least 3 or 4 up IMO. Digititus' still there though. Not that it matters, anyway.
