If I did not buy the Susvara I would have never discovered Audio-gd(because I prejudissed all chi-fi). I only had 2000 dollars left and found HE9 LE as the best for the money and specs. So here is my top 3. Susvara being 1.
2. Audio-gd - HE9 LE:
For the functionality, because it can become a "HUB" for 5 devices/dacs(5 inputs total) and active speaker
Amazing sound signature. Its not only good for the money its better than the competition imo. iCAN or OOR.
3. Matrix X-Spdif2: Because it can use all outputs to three dacs, and it actually sounds pretty clean on my JCAT card. Cheap compared to the price/performance. I like this one with my Super Nova 7 cable connected to my TT2. It will later also have RME ADi-2 and a Audio-gd R2R dac connected.
What did you all buy this year, and what made you happy about the purchase?
