When you first mentioned BWD, it sorta clicked in my mind as a potentially superior means of feeding the digital audio stream to the dac, because it would be designed and meant as a high end digital AUDIO transport.
Not pro audio, nor it's cousin once removed, nor a 'universal' buss solution, nor an internal buss adapted for external use.
A TRUE SotA means of delivering those digits and bits without all of the rubbish and extraneous unwanted electrical/electronic noise etc.
A means to truly uncork the Jggy or other multibit dacs (and more?).
An Eitr on steroids?
I can see this could be a serious challenge to AOIP.
I also await to hear 'The Gadget' and compare it to my fixed offset implementation of the re-tuning of the musical scale.
I would prefer a top end device but the the ability to 'play' with the offset to dial it in is intriguing to say the least.
As for the CD transport and the floorsweeper, well, I can see where they could be very useful for some, but they don't 'fit' in my system, but then I'm way deep into one end of that bell curve, where Schiit pays WAY more attention to that fat middle portion of the bulge.
And of course there is the experiment where you married two 'pieces' together and the sparks and fireworks weren't the result of a wiring error.
Pushing the envelope always challenges our assumptions both coming and going.
