For Christmas, along with a BONUS gift - a Touch!!! So I went from Duet analogue out through passive attenuation to single ended amps to Touch digital out, a fully balanced DAC, and XLR into fully balanced amps.
w. o. w. I have not had a chance to listen to a ton of DACs before, but the before and after of these new setups are freaking night and day. As for Audio-gd, I can only say positive things about the company, their service, the quality of the packaging, and the quality of the build of the DAC. I have absolutely no regrets. OK, back to do some more listening (now that I refreshed my Tasmanian single malt to go with the jazz queued up!)
