MSB Diamond DAC V


Looking to try a MSB Diamond V Dac with Diamond Power Base Volume Control and Renderer. As a side note I have had the opportunity to enjoy the Lampizator Pacific, Esoteric Grandioso K1 my 2 favorites, DCS Vivaldi, Chord Dave but never tried the MSB. I was told that it's is a must listen to before I pull the ultimate trigger.

Please feel free to comment on your thoughts regarding what i can expect from the MSB Diamond DAC V.

Thanks.

Ideon Audio Absolute Dac definitely has my attention How much is it?
P.S. They are not easy to find info on other than there website. I also circling the Lampinzator they left a unforgettable impression  with there Pacific Dac.

Hi, I just checked their site and the US importer is Audioskies. In Europe, it costs around 30k euro, so I'm guessing it's under 40k in the US (not peanuts, but a lot less than my MSB)

looks amazing on paper, but as an exotic and unknown here in the U.S. it’s a bit risky interims of resell ability and depreciation. DACs have always been a fear of mine due to the Dac a Day concept. Everyone comes out with a new and improved best thing since slice bread every year while the buyers take a major loss when trying to upgrade to the next greatest Dac. I am going to look for either a Lampi Pacific or a MSB Diamond Dac V with all the goodies on the secondary market. 

Thanks for your help, it certainly has massive technical appeal. Keep us posted:)
There's a few MSB's here on Audiogon, a very nice very nice Platinum IV Plus for $6.5k  https://www.audiogon.com/listings?q=msb

George, you have what pretty much amounts to preferential obsessions with certain gear, which is fine.  But why do you try to oversell your preferences to others, my acknowledging that you have no financial interests?  Why not let them decide based on their own observations?
