Hey David,
How about you posting an impression of the Terminator? What DAC did the Terminator replace? Any comparisons?
Congratulations on the Danafrips and the new loudspeaker. What is your new loudspeaker? Just curious.
Everyone is different but I have not read one review from 6 moons because they REQUIRE a manufacturer to purchase ad(s) prior to reviewing a product.

@ghasley 
You just dashed my hopes with that statement. I was hoping to find more information on the Wyred4Sound STP-SE Stage-2 which they reviewed favorably. The reason I was eyeing it because it is a passive/active design that has been praised in a couple of professional reviews and they said it has that clean sound like a TVC.
@jayctoy ,
Will surely like to hear from you on this demo. Seems pretty interesting what 6moons said, Vs AudioStream. Not sure if we can trust online rags anymore. User reviews should be more useful. But we all ave some bias or the other.
@jayctoy ,
Will wait to hear from you and others on this thread on the Denafrips Terminator. Will there be any comparisons with other DACs?
Interesting DAC. I have followed this thread for a few days now. So was wondering what's up with the guys at Audiostream. They compared 4 DACs and found the Terminator to be "confusing". Because Denafrips don't advertise in their rag?
