Look again, the W4S does not have a power supply the size of a cherry tomato, who told you that? 88Kmfd capacitance an oversized transformer and the ess 9018 saber chip. In my experience a very good product and value.
how much $$$ to really upgrade my DAC
Been loyal to my Monarchy M24 (upgraded Siemens tubes) + upsampling DIP for a few years now, many in fact. Nothing wrong, upgraditis hitting me. Been reading everything and the contrary about new $1,000 DAC shoebox size (Burson, Wyred, Peachtree and so on) with fancy Sabre chip yet power supply the size of cherry tomato...then I think go Weiss or Esoteric or EMM Lab and break the bank....I know there is only one way to find out but I am curious to hear what others may have done...thanks
