I have not had the opportunity to hear the DAVE.Forgive the short hand. I was alluding to the 2nd stage WTA filter:

Agreed that there are very few DSP cores post 16FS stage, which could all end up in the digital amp.
In noodling some more, another scenario is that the the digital amp is packaged as the DAVE2, an all in one devices (multi inputs, volume control, display panel, etc) with 20/70W output, with a separate digital amp that is a slave device to the original DAVE (single device for stereo or 2 for bridged mode) or slave to DAVE2 for people running in bridge mode.
I am signed up for the Huge2 demo tour. I'm looking forward to doing some critical evaluation of the BluDave vs BluHugo2 vs LonelyDave vs LonelyHugo2. Based on that, I'll sort out what I should do with my DAVE: swap it out for an H2 now then retire the H2 to my work office (headphones only) when the digital amp ships, or hold onto the DAVE, and retire it to my work office when the time comes. Either way, seriously first world problems to be working through
For me I now reserve the Hugo 2 for home use, and the Mojo for use in the office at work.
Maybe sometime in the future, I will change to Hugo TT2 for home use, and Hugo 2 at work, but that may be one or two years down the line for Chord.
