...best DACs out there DAC3 modules will give you an even better Adagio marginal? yes, past a given point... everything is just marginal and every *little* step is increasingly expensive a completely different "sound signature" (which is not the case with DAC3s) would be *not* marginal. maybe...- plsvn

you're coming very late at the party! (and also thank Brexit :stuck_out_tongue:) paid 4k (€) for my Adagio, when I bought it (they took back my Hex for a 1.5k value) and 1.2k for DAC3 modules (first three months after release price was 200€ each + 50€ cashback for DAC2 modules)- plsvn

Keces P8 Linear Power Supply
hi just bought a (very slightly) used P8 *single* something weird, though: it's a 12/15v unit and... I've never seen offered/mentioned anywhere this configuration :thinking: just curious as it is working fine powering my Cirrus7 (Roon ROCK)- plsvn

SMSL M400 MQA DAC
