These are all good choices but you need to have some input here. Its no different than the process you went about when selecting your Shindo/DeVore combo (and an excellent combo it is). For me, I love Ayre and wouldn't hesitate to buy a QB-9. But I don't know if you would like it. The Ayre house sound is different than Shindo. What have you actually listened to?
DAC help For my tube rig
Looking for some guidance/validation...
Need to add a new DAC to my Shindo Massetto/Montrachet into Devore O/96.
Current list of contenders are:
Auralic Vega (want to add the new Aries streamer too)
Ayre QB-9 DsD
Lampizator G4/L4
PS Audio Directstream
Any thoughts or experience would be much appreciated.
