BTW, I already borrowed a demo model, so I have heard it. I don't know all the features yet and I haven't checked out the AD converter part.    I have tried lot's of dac's and I would call this dac (i went into my kt88 amp) high fidelity with depth and cleanliness. It sort of reminds me of...

I will.

Just ordered one! Excited to get it. I went with the silver face (to match my other equip).

Hey all,   Would it be possible to have the Hilo go directly into my main amplifer, which only has rca inputs?    I not only want to use it as a headphone amplifer, but also as the main dac in my audio system.

Thanks for your input.  I actually just worked out a deal for a Burson HA-160. So, hopefully that will be a good fit for the AKG Q701. 

Hi all, Would the Darkvoice 336 be a good fit with the AKG Q701? (would the Matrix M-stage be a better fit?) My dac is a Rega (on the dark, analog side) with Kimber PBJ cables. Thanks.

Thanks for your response. I just read in another forum heading, that the WA3 would not work well with the q701's. 

Thanks for letting me know! BTW, Rush rules!

Hi,   Would any of you think the AKG Q701 would work well with the Woo Audio WA3?   Thanks.
