Ah okay - well I'll leave this ask up here then in case someone can measure this and post their findings. Until then, I'll be waiting for these on the used market

Do you have things like it's freq response and some sine/square wave responses?
I think I’ve had it with this device. Can’t get MQA on Tidal. Can’t hear difference on filters, can’t download firmware which has now been withdrawn. Other than that it sounds pretty good but...
eBay here it comes. Anybody had any experience with the Mytek Liberty?
I got the firmware from you before. I even got a Windows PC to download it. Computer doesn’t see Prebox.

My pc has same issue, the USB is limited to 500mA, the USB port shutdown when I connect my S2 on it.In my case, Windows was not seeing Prebox using only the USB cable. It seems my computer was not providing enough power to it. When I plugged in the included power suppy + computer USB cable, problem was solved.
The Audio Quality menu has two options, "Best" and "Test". "Best" is the way John Westlake, the designer of this DAC, likes the sound: Distortion Compensation is disabled and the filter is Optimal Transient. In "Test", the settings are changed to match the best results from John's test lab instruments: Distortion Compensation is enabled and the filter is Brickwall.
Dear Left Channel. You are my savior. Downloaded new Mac firmware, connected to iFi power supply. Went right in, took less than five minutes (I spent hours before in unsuccessful attempts). Getting MQA!!! I know there is a debate about MQA but I don’t get it. MQA opens up my soundstage width and depth. Sound is uneqivically better. It’s not even close. So for now S2 is off the market while I reaudition it.
Lefty I see you are on the Mytek Brooklyn thread, I wanted this DAC but it was too expensive, the Liberty is doable. Why don’t you start a thread on it. I was on the verge of buying it today but with the resurrection of the S2 I think I’ll wait to see if it has teething problems too. Would like to hear your comparison of the sound of the two dacs
Thanks a hundred million for your and everyone elses help.
