Anyone familiar with Scott Nixon tube dac?

I haven't heard one either, but the buzz is definately there around them. I've got a couple questions into them about the tubedacs and based on the results will be potentially ordering one. I've currently got the CIA VDA-1 and VAC-1, which I like very much - but you know how it goes! I'm running a McCormack SST-1 transport to the CIA and then into a Sonic Frontiers SFL-1.

I picked up a tubedac. It arrived last night and I'm letting it burn in a bit. I should have some time next week to give it a comparison to the Channel Islands gear I've got already!

Ok, it's been a month and actually I kinda forgot about this! However, I've sold the CIA VDA-1 and power supply if that give you any indication on how things went. Realistically, they were close - previously the CIA really pounded the Rega Planet, McCormack DAC-1 and EAD DSP 7000 MKIII. The Nixon takes it to the next level when it comes to realistic reproduction in my mind. Things sound more real, soundstage is fantastic, wide and deep. Tons of detail musicality. No "fatigue" either. For $350 shipped it's silly good. In fact, based on the cost of the EAD and McCormack it's silly good for $1200 too. I've swiched tubes to a Siemens E88CC - even sweeter! Email me if you have any questions.
