I would like to say that I have received their LD DAC_1, and as far as I can tell, everything is working fine. David is indeed a joy to work with.
I have just placed my order for my LD MKVII+ a few minutes ago. I am learning that in this hobby there are always going to be fanboys, and there are going to be critics. No matter how good or bad your product is.
There will always be something bigger and badder around the corner. The trick is to do your homework, know what you want, and stay within your budget. Most of the reviews that I have read are speaking very small differences in sound quality. Not to say that there aren't some larger differences as well, but if you do your research, you can find a company that stands behind their product the way Little Dot and the more reputable companies do, then you should try to enjoy the music and be content. At least, that is what I should do. I wouldn't presume to tell anyone else what to do.
I bought the LD DAC_1 & the LD MKVII+ because I have wanted to go balanced since I began this hobby. This is a great and economical way to do it. I am not concerned about their quality of work or quality control. I think I spoke out of turn in my previous post. I guess I was just voicing a concern, that would have served better to remain in my inner monologue, lol!
There a great deal of happy campers on these forums that own LD gear. Just look at the posts above to see how well LD takes care of their customers. For me, that means peace of mind in the knowledge that if anything does go wrong, they have my back. What more can you ask for? It is easy to forget that we are dealing with sensitive electronics here, and there are any number of things that can happen, especially in the globe trotting trek they make to get to us.
I hope you all have a good night. I will report my findings after I receive my MKVII+!
BTW, I did a quick comparison of my LD DAC_1 to my Keces 131 MKII w/ silver iec upgrade. I preferred the LD DAC's fuller, more dynamic sound. So, I sold my Keces, and that has in turn helped pay for my MKVII

Best Regards,
Matt
