Hi, I've personally found, and many other here have also mentioned too, that the California Audio Labs (CAL Alpha DAC thows a quite hot output signal.
Factory rated at 3.5V, some have said it's closer to actually being 4V. A $1450 Tube DAC when it sold new (2-12AX7A) they can be had for around $400-$500. I pair $450 for my mint Alpha right here. Mark
