Couldn't agree more. I love my TubeDac. Worth every penny as an upgrade to my Marantz CD6000 ose. Listening to this thing through my ppa and Senn HD-650's is bliss. Would have been easier, cheaper and quicker to buy a ready-made DAC, but not near as much fun or satisfying as building it yourself.

I bought the kit which has everything you need (minus enclosure, transformer, wires and sockets). The instructions are clear and easy to follow and it worked first time. I also went for the additional sync filter - a boost at 16Khz to compensate for the non-OS nature of the DAC. To be honest, I can't hear any difference with this!!
The sound is smooth and incredibly detailed with solid bass. And yes, it's great to rediscover all you CD's again.
