Bryston BDA-1? $1995 at Audio Advisor
Alien Dac - DYI by many, price varies $75-175
Is the Woo Audio dac out yet? It was at meets but not on the site.

My vote for Pico was actually based on its Amp/DAC unit but having talked to people who had compared it with Pico DAC-only, it seems there isn't any major difference between them, sound-wise.

I also added the Gamma1.

[Menisk]

Can we merge the Cambridge Audio DacMagic and the DacMagic 2? I think that we're all talking about the DacMagic 2 which we all just refer to as the DacMagic.

Big difference. The DacMagic2 was released in 1995. The current DacMagic should have been DacMagic3.
