I am wondering if there is a clear upgrade from the EE Minimax dac. I am listening to LCD2-s through a beta 22. With tube rolling, cables, etc. I have tamed the upper mids of the minimax to acceptable levels. I am very sensitive to the frequency range. I am wondering if it makes sense to try the Isabellina or perhaps a used Pefectwave, Minerva or Berkeley. While I am especially in search of sweet highs, I also want to maintain weight and extension in the low frequencies due to a small hearing loss. Any thoughts about these sources relative to the Minimax?

I'll keep this very short. They are very smooth sounding. Treble toned down so not so good for rock but have a magic about them that makes them better than mark 2. I use them with a '89/'90... -

First, I should note that I auditioned these both straight out of the box, without any break-in time and then later after 53 hours of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite...
