I don't find Paradisea 3 warm at all and that was the reason I moved up to Havana and now with the HiFi Tuning fuse which add additional warmth, I am still replacing the output capacitors which may turn the DAC even warmer....

Did you have your Paradisea 3 with your Woo Audio 6? If so, how did they sound together?

I think it's one of the best bang-for-the-buck components out there and easily bests the likes of the Benchmark and Lavry in terms of SQ to my ears. And it's well within your budget even with prices creeping up a bit.
