Seems like a very nice tube dac. Gets great reviews & is reasonably priced. Anyone running one in their system or have heard it?

    I really like mine.
    I also changed the tube to NOS with great results. I'm curious to see what something else sounds like but have not figured out what should be the next step up for me yet.

    What tube did you swap out & what were the musical differences. Thanks

    it is warmer in the mids than the stock tube.
    For a lack of a better way to describe it, the result sounds a bit more natural and a little less processed.
