Thanks for pointing this thread out.
It seems a bit of a shame that Kingwa is not including optical/usb inputs on his new DSP-1 DACs. One of the things I love about the Compass is the versatility of the inputs. This would seem ideal for the DSP DACs as the DSP-1 technology (as far as I can tell) is intended to reduce jitter, something that is more prevalent in lesser digital sources - such as many of those fed by USB, for example. Kingwa seems to market the DSP-1 almost as an equalizer of source devices...
On the other hand, I suppose he doesn't envision many of his customers who are interested in higher end DACs to bother with lesser digital sources.
Maybe Kingwa can add a DSP-1 option to the Compass
