I agree. Cayin is the warmer amp but the dna does have its own warmth and tone which is extremely pleasing. I don't have balling tubes like big j though.- smodtactical

I did the update driver option and pointed it to the quartus directory but it was not able to find anything. If I delete the device in device manager how can I make windows use quartus driver?- smodtactical

No I have not heard one nor do I have an opportunity to hear one. I do have trusted friends that have them and enjoy them. What custom amp builder makes a interstage headphone amp? If you can name even 2 ill be shocked.- smodtactical
