@RonaldS86 what
@ThanatosVI said. I can add only a little bit to it.
Honestly speaking after getting WaveLight I never saw a reason to upgrade to WaveDream. As for dacs that are definitively worth checking out (with Envy) here is my list:
- Chord Hugo TT2 (+/- M-Scaler)
- Chord Dave (+/- M-Scaler)
- Mola Mola Tambaqui
- Cen Grand DSDAC (multiple versions)
- T+A DAC 200
However I haven't heard T+A nor Cen Grand via Envy. Cen Grand is softer than WL IMHO. The thing with M-Scaler add-on is that first of all you many not hear/like to difference, secondly a new version seems to be finally around the corner, so investment wise this may not be the best time to buy one unless you will get a very good deal. As for me, adding a headphone amp to TT2 gave me a lot more that adding M-Scaler to the chain.
