The Astell & Kern AK120
The conversion would probably be to either 24/88 or 24/176 and it's unlikely to support ISO files from SACDs but DFF and DFS instead. But you can convert the ISOs to DFS using the latest version of Jriver.- ThatPhilDude

You know you're an audiophile when your excuse for getting the hell out of a situation is "I left my amplifier on". Justifiable if it's a tube amp.- ThatPhilDude

New balanced portable amp from RSA w/ DAC!
Quote: Hopefully his standalone portable DAC will support hires but it's true about the numbers and from all the reviews and impressions I've read it seems Ray has a gift for getting incredible sound from less than TOTL internal components. If only I could afford anything of his.- ThatPhilDude
