Wyred 4 sound vs Audio gd dacs

Good luck getting an Audio GD dac. I tried for two months to purchase a NFB-7. They must be very good as they are sold as fast as they are produced. I finally gave up and bought a W4S. I will always wonder if I jumped the gun.
I might try again after they cool off or a used one becomes available just to compare. In the mean time the W4S is a keeper.

Hmmm.. curious did you try through Pacific Valve? Their website claims a 2-3 week lead time for delivery. So I was assuming they are made to order from china.

I contacted Pacific Valve about two months ago to try and buy a REF-7.
I was told they could order one but they were only going to stock the new
NFB-7 and should have some in three or four weeks.
After about four weeks I e-mailed them and asked about stocking status.
I was told their order came in but all were sold. They said it would be another three weeks or so before they had anymore. I put my name on their waiting list.
After another three weeks I e-mailed them, only to get the same answer.
I was told I could give them a credit card # and pre order one.
I then decided to just order from W4S.
Maybe after the first of the year they will be more available.
Like you i am curious as to how they compare to the W4S.

I´m also interested in Audio-GD DACs. Anyone compared to W4S or anyother DAC?

I had the Audio GD Ref. 7 v5 in the house for a couple weeks. This dac is the real deal at it's price range. I need a digital pre so the PS Perfectwave or Antelope Zodiac will be next up. For those having need for the latest/greatest may not like A gd as the Ref. 7 is now discontinued. They bring out products so often you can't stay on the crest of technology.
