He's yet to hear it so we shall see when he does.
Don't think anyone ever said it was. In fact I said the Concero was a better deal if you didn't need balanced/DSD. The only giant it's killed so far is the PWD, which is probably just a bad match for me and has nothing to do with the X-Sabre.
And you're selling it why?Though I've never heard the X-Sabre that's quite a praise for ConceroWhen I listened to it at Nick's house for some reason I had to turn my Stax amp's volume all the way up to get good sound with Concero. So my PS Audio NuWave DAC seemed like a winner there but I'd like to hear this Concero one more time.. Oh and the X-Sabre too.

Well, between you, me, Mike, and Purrin, chances are good at least one of us will dislike any given component.

Also, depends on which version of the PWD2. The new versions with the 2.20 firmware (which cannot be rolled back) also have different analog boards from my understanding.
The X-Saber must be a giant killer.
Only mention I could find of giant killer, by someone who was merely speculating it might be one.
