DAC upgrade from RME

Thanks - I’d prefer a higher end unit which would mean used. I forgot to mention Audio Mirror in my search. Tubadour 3 preferably 4. I can’t see spending more than $3K, three and a half max max. I’ve seen two Mojo’s that fall there. 
Thanks

Indeed it does but still comes off as strident. And while I do favor detail it comes with too much sharpness. And while I may be considered a simpleton I find the menu system extremely frustrating to use. And yes I am considering a couple pieces on TMR with the RME in a deal. 

Thanks guys.

Any users/samplers of the Audio Mirror Tubadour(s)? They seem highly appreciated and I’ve dealt with Vlad in the past. Owned both his 20 and 45 watt single ended amps and still own his older T-61 preamp. Great CS.

Soix - I agree about too far to the soft(er) sound as I do like detail, transparency and a quiet noise floor. 
 

Are tubed DACs designs an oxymoron? Pop the hood on most dacs and they’re an 

testament to extreme engineering compared to something like the Border Patrol, Wavelength even Gishelli Labs. There are times when the KISS theory makes sense. Provided it sounds right - 

I have added a LHT linear power supply to the RME .

It may have added a bit of weight but it wasn't a revelation.
