Are there not any reclocking DACs on the market for similar money? It seems a little strange to put a $600 reclocker in front of a less expensive DAC.
As curious as I am to play around with some of the PC audio upgrades, I was satisfied with my SACD player as a source and so far have not been able to identify a difference with my current ATV to DAC as a source when using the solid state output. It is hard to justify spending more just to see.
The other factor is I have two small kids so my opportunities to really listen are few and far between. My best listening is generally after they are in bed when my wife and I sit in the living room and listen to some relaxing music before escaping the day and getting some sleep.
