I am looking for a new DAC, and I wanted to know if anyone had any experience or comparative experiences with these two (or three) different DACs.
I wanted to know specifically the comparison between the Audinst and the Little Dot DAC II (as they appear to have similar capabilities, but different price points). I wanted to know how they shape up against one another.
The other consideration is the MusicStreamer II (around the same price as the MX1) but the MSII does not have an amplifier.
This website compares the two, but I wanted to hear from some head-fiers.

I have a modded Little Dot 1+ with upgraded OPA2228 and Mullard M8161 tubes and some low impedance headphones, so I dont necessarily need the amplifier part, but I know that my amp isn't necessarily the highest grade amp, so I'm curious about the amplifier part of these two DACs (maybe I shouldn't worry or be too curious...)
The MusicStreamer has seemed to get some mixed reviews on head-fi. Please let me know what you all think might be the best purchase for getting music from my computer to my headphones or for getting music from my computer to my LD I+ tube amp.
