Another Review: Red Wine Audeze Edition v. Headroom/Wyred4Sound
Do you believe the DAC in the RWA AE is better than the W4S DAC-2?

It's impossible to really tell as the RWA AE's DAC can only be used with the amp and no other way to run a DAC into the AE.
You can use the AE as just a DAC. But indeed you cannot run any other source through the AE's amp.
So you can break out the RWA DAC to run through another pre amp or headphone amp, but you can't run another DAC through the RWA to test the RWA DAC against another DAC?
You can't use the RWA amp section with any other DAC, but you can isolate the DAC section and use it with other amps.
Hi Flohmann,
Thanks for your review - much appreciated and I'm glad you are enjoying your Audeze Edition combo!
Our new Corvina with the Balanced Output Stage has no DAC, but two analog inputs:

I'll have it at the NY Meet this weekend. Connect another dac (plus the interconnects will be another variable) and compare to the all-in-one Audeze Edition System
(but use the included ALO balanced cable).
Thanks again for all your posts and interest!

Does anyone have any experiencee with the AE or Corvina and the HD800?
I have both LCD 2 & Hd800 and am considering the Corvina (which I understand is the same amp as the AE).
Thanks!
