LessLoss Echos End


Hey guys. I’ve been looking at dacs for what seems like an eternity. I’m heavily leaning towards the Denafrips Venus 2 or Terminator 2. I can’t use Holo Audio due to the high voltage output of 5.8 vrms of the balanced xlr’s. I was really hoping to love the Venus at $3000 but reviews are underwhelming. The Terminator seems to be universally highly regarded. But, at $5000, that introduced me to LessLoss Echos End. The hand made nature of this dac, as well as my Aric Audio Custom 300b PSET and Super 6sn7 Linestbe preamp, appeals to me. Tough finding reviews though from actual owners. Was hoping for some input from Audiogon members. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Earthbound

Look at the Musician Aquarius.  It’s up there on the level of the Terminator, but you could add their Phoenix DDC and take it to the next level with an i2S connection for around the same $5k.  Here are a couple reviews…
