I read many of your comments on several topics and they're very informative and objective. I am wondering about the additional cost of Euro 1500 for that particular option. Is it worth it? The MQA is now making a buzz now especially after Munich 2016. Not sure if Lampizator will adopt this as well. :)

He also has a new Delta-Sigma PCM board that he says is about equal SQ. The R2R can do DSD as well, so has the advantage of seemless playback of a mixed format playlist. Finally, there was a recent update of the R2R firmware that steps up PCM to the stratosphere I am told by Bill in the UK.
