Looks like it is getting returned. Wasn't able to get it to play at anything higher than 192k and more over wasn't able to play DSD at all. Product was supposed to be able to play upto 384k and DSD but wasn't able to get it working using both Volumio or Moode player.
Now time to hunt for another i2s device... or streamer with USB output.
Looking at SMSL DP5 or Lumin U2 Mini... but Lumin, price is a little too high....
Anyone know why kitsunehifi is seemingly sold out of a lot of holo stuff and other items? Is it just the pandemic or something else? I would really like to find a spring on the used market but may have to buy new and just want to make sure something is going on with them that I should know about.

I think it'll be hard to find a used Spring DAC on the market.
Also, most likely what's going on with Kitsune is people really enjoy the Holo products which is why they're sold out.

I believe sold out means they don't have the parts to make any at the moment. Even in stock just means they have the parts but they still build to order.
All that being said, I'll probably put my spring 1 kte up for sale soon since it is not getting much use ever since I upgraded to may kte
One more question before I pull the trigger on one of these. I use the top of an Ikea Expedit for my gear. I currently have my turntable (VPI Classic), phonostage (Herron VTPH-2), and Amp (Decware Torii) on it. I do not have room to put the Spring on it unless I stack. I was thinking of putting the Herron on top of the Spring. I know this is not truly ideal but is there any compelling reason not to do so? Does the Spring get hot? I would need to do some pretty serious re-arranging and purchase a dedicated audio rack to change my setup (which I really don't want to do). Thanks.

Holo gets a little warm but not hot, a little warm to touch they are built top notch so stacking on top of unit doesn't look to affect the device... might want to have little gap between the 2 devices though.... may be IsoAcoustics similar to make some gap for air?

Has anyone compared the Holo to any of Metrum/Sonnets offerings? I just got in my Pavane and I’m still getting used to the NOS sound but just curious about what the Holo sounds like. I’ve always heard it described as sweet but I have never really had anyone expand on that? Is the midrange sweet? Is it mainly a neutral DAC? I wish there was a way to hear one because then I could decide if I would move the Pavane to my speaker setup and get the Holo for headphone listening.
