Seeking Rupert Neve Fidelice DAC experience


There's not a lot of chatter on the Fidelice DAC/pre (outside of Darko's YT review) and to a lesser extent Guttenburg's review, which didn't provide a lot of insight.

I'm wondering if anyone has experience with this unit. I'm mainly interested in it's DAC capabilities, and potential future use as a headphone amp. I'm not much into cans now, but am considering them as an alternative in the future.

Thanks for your thoughts guys. After reading reviews on other forums it appears this unit is really built for the desktop/headphone user (within arms reach of the volume knob and rear mounted power switch) who need an all in one DAC/AMP/HEADPHONE unit, and not so much the 2 channel audiophile crowd. There’s a lot of functionality built in the would be wasted on someone looking strictly for a high quality DAC. Perhaps they’ll release a stand-alone DAC in the future?
