MSB select II vs all dacs ?


Wherever I read I see unanimous praise for the MSB Select II. Of course this DAC is super pricey and out of the reach of many (including me). I wanted to know for anyone who has heard it have you also heard a DAC that approached it in sonic performance? One name that was thrown around by a few people I know is the  Rockna Wavedream. Anyone make that comparison?

@mikelavigne   Can you share the list price for your current DAC 'system' with powerbases, modules, etc. included? 

Realizing there isn't a comparison (you personally found) that could go head to head with your current setup, which other DACs would you say are worth considering, even if second tier, per your experience?

Thank you.
Thank you, Mike. Looking forward to the your additions to the list.

For a trip down memory lane, I have the Found-Music 2A3 amps in my system. I believe you had the same around 8 or so years ago. : )
Mike, Scott has been absolutely wonderful in his support, despite my purchasing the Found-Music 2A3s used (from Art S.)  He has visited once and is planning another visit after the trip your way.

For those of you that may not know Scott Sheaffer of Found-Music, or his work, I encourage you to look him up should you have an interest in analog setup, cabling, SE amps, etc.
@shkong78  Thanks for sharing your listening impressions of the Lampizator Pacific vs the MSB DACs as well as what you miss about the Pacific vs your Chord combo. 

The Lampizator Pacific is on my radar. Your post and feedback is appreciated. Thank you!
@rhapsody   Bob, thank you for your post and allowing us to follow the digital breadcrumbs. : )

Very helpful and clear. Thanks!
