Pity, all that’s missing is a volume control so you can go direct to amp, as it has 2.5v output.

Thx George. I believe you are correct w my ol dac being delta sigma and as I don’t believe the files I import are pcm or dsd(not actually sure) I think I’ll pass on this r2r for now, tempting as it is. Appreciate your input. Cheers, Mike
Call me “cheap skate”, I’m in George...🙃and I thank you for heads up!
Cheers!   
I think it’s the six month wait that’s a deal buster for some of us. That’s a long time in the world of digital technology, and who knows what’s going to turrn up in the interim.
Only 187 sold so far.  I'm surprised no one has mentioned the dishonest response from the "designer" concerning the obvious copy of the Hibiki (Sosolar) design.  I'm not saying anything illegal has occurred, but the way it's been handled so far has been shameful in my opinion.
