I just got Celestee, and on medium gain my soloist has a very present hiss. It disappears on low gain. I can’t hear it on any gain setting with Arya (much less sensitive). I haven’t tested IEMs.
Any thoughts compared to the ADI-2?
Of course, this is just one person's opinion, and I still think it's a terrific choice in its price range compared to a lot of stuff out there. The differences in modern DACs in general are fairly nitpicky, which is why I didn't feel like I was missing too much with the Modius. There's also the possibility that the HD-650 wasn't resolving all of the technical ability that the RME is actually capable of, and thus the technical differences and nuances between it and the Modius seemed less apparent. It would be interesting to re-evaluate it with the HE-6SE in play.NOW you tell me
Interesting to hear, appreciate your observations.
that is so truedifferences in modern DACs in general are fairly nitpicky
Are you located in the USA?Does anyone know how this compares to the Flux FA-12? I'm trying to decide between the two. Price point of the Burson is very similar when on sale.
Does anyone know what the landed cost of the Burson was after customs/brokerage? Thanks!
My chain is pi2aes->Ares 2->THX 789->Ananda Balanced right now.

It's cool that you recognize it. I did choose it as my online handle about a couple decades ago.No, in Canada. I haven't seen a Get Backers reference in decades lol.
Yes, the manual says there should be one, as well as a spare fuse. Not in the box for mine, which arrived today. Not impressed.Should be an Allen key. If you don’t want to wait just go get it at hardware store.
