Apologies if this has been covered but wouldn’t another potential benefit of the split units be that you wouldn’t need to have the amp on all the time to thermally stabilize the R2R?
Yes. I suppose so. Another one: you can sell the units separately if needed.Apologies if this has been covered but wouldn’t another potential benefit of the split units be that you wouldn’t need to have the amp on all the time to thermally stabilize the R2R?
Another combo came out yesterday: the d-27. Great value for someone looking for a sabre dac.I notice that there is so much model coming out this year.
Audio GD have done a lot of research then

Looks like a D-77 married to a Master 9 amp. Interesting. I’m yet to read any reviews of a dual ESS 9038 AGD dac. Hopefully this is what @Currawong was hinting at when he said he needs space on his desk16w at 25ohm? wowee

contrary to many people, i like the sound of sabre. i´m excited with this new d-27. so d-77 sounds good?I have a D-77 and I can tell you that it's amazing. Clarity and instrument separation are way above and beyond what I was expecting. No regrets here, although I almost wish I had waited and got a D-27 instead of the D-77/NFB-1AMP combo. I do prefer separate components though, and I wasn't totally sure I was going to like the dual 9038 as much as I do.

Ah, so you’re downgrading then @Currawong Look forward to that one. I have a love hate relationship with Stax.No. I didn't know about this at all. The space was for Stax.
I do not will sell it
Componetns(cable, connectors, push buttons, plexiglass cut out with laser) cost about 65€ and 5 hours of my work
This is the sabre equivalent to the r8 but with headphone amp as a bonus. SMD resistors are used, a lighter chassis, and and other cost-reduction is made to bring a value offer that should be pretty close to the nfb7.77/master-9 stack.Looks like a D-77 married to a Master 9 amp.
