I'd have to agree with the poster above who mentioned the Concerto's low noise floor. I ordered the Concerto/Stage DAC combination 3 weeks ago, and they arrived today. I haven't had much chance to listen yet, but I have noitced how extremely quiet the amp is. I also have a tube amp (Woo WA6SE) which sounds amazing, but it is not totally silent. The Concerto is.
I purchased the Stage DAC because of the crossfeed features; I haven't yet had a chance to experiment with them though. So far, I love the sound, and the build quality (fit and finish) are excellent as well.
Because I am in the USA, and these came from Germany, I also paid attention to the packaging, and what was included with the 2 units. They were double boxed, well padded, and included were 2 heavy duty AC cords, a USB A/B cable and a very nice quality optical cable. Very detailed instruction manuals for both were included as well.
So far, I'm quite pleased with my purchase, and anxious to explore all of the options the Stage DAC offers.
Thanks Mike, I'll be interested in your future experience of the combination as I've got until April until the fund are available. Regards
