Any Hegel H390 owners using Hegel D50 DAC?

I actually wouldn’t let that dissuade you if I were you.  First, streaming technology is not hard, nor does it need to be expensive.  More importantly, Gold Note is a DAC-first company, in contrast to, say, Bluesound or Innuos for example.  So the focus is definitely on the DAC function in the DS10.  It’s kind of like criticizing the Hegel H400 for having streaming capacity (and a DAC).  It’s still a really fine integrated.

No idea.  You should look for local dealer.  You can also call HiFi Heaven or someplace else that carries the brand.

You can get a lot of DAC for $6k.  Am a huge fan of the Goldnote DS10 Evo, with optional power supply.  I think that comes i. under budget.  I’ve compared that to a DCS Bartok and preferred the Goldnote.  

Also The Cable Company in New Hope, Pa. Forgot they carried brand. Am big fan of this dealer.  Excellent service.
