Being an Ex-dealer for Aqua Acoustics, i can agree with Audio Doctor.
Iv compared both La Scala and Formula. If funds permit obviously the Formula would be the one to go for.
They are inherently very musical piece of hardware that shifts your attention from the electronics and allows you to enjoy the music.
I have the Formula XHD up for sale on Audiogon, It has by far kept up with DACs costing thousands more. The unique aspect of this DAC is that it can be upgraded very easily, Every sub-circuit is isolated and modular. You can literally upgrade power supply boards, Processor board, FPGA and so on.
