I bought the DAC and used it in my office for several years. It punches WAY above its price point. Drew @Clipdat gave me the little purifier, and I don't know if it helps but it's pretty cool!

Note that this is USB only. Would go great with one of my squeezebox touches with Enhanced audio output!

Any active polkie who wants to try it or give it to a friend or family member (not sell it 😂) just say in. I'll give it until Monday night and draw a winner!

    Count me in for a chance to try this. I have been looking for something to use with my Senn headphones. I lost that when I switched to a Denafrips DAC back in January. Thinking of setting up a stand alone Headphone listening spot.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    Yes, I'd like to jump in, if not too late. I have a few SBT that would benefit from this lovely karma item!
